AM is still #1 affair site. Huge database of members, very well established brand. There are few cons though: - High price - Recent security breach - You have to pay to have your personal data vanished However, I still regularly use it (and if you know how to treat housewives, you'll get to the 4th base), but to double, or even triple up my chances, I use another great affair website recommended by lots of other guys here: Nostringsaffair.com. Happy hunting!
I was contacted by 10 women using Ashley Madison and all 10 were "romance scammers". Some waited 5 minutes to start asking for money some waited a few days but they all were scammers. The site is not worth your time or bucks!
You get out the effort that you put in! I consider AshleyMadison.com one of the best sites of its kind! It is a little more expensive than comparable sites like Saphrina.com but if money is not an issue you strongly suggest to use both sites! You need to remember that women are outnumbered on those kind of sites. Seek and you will find!
Been on the site for 3 months. I had an encounter with one real person i will assume. Women noth online and off line are always the same they don't change. New members always show up in places far away from you. Really expensive. Funny how all the female members respond to your wink with " I do better with full msg, or I am only interested in full msg. Etc." i think some features teally need to be updated and be more fair between male and email.
AM actively edits your profile. I had stated that I would not respond to "ladies" who didn't look at my profile before winking or messaging me. Yet when I checked later on, the posted words were deleted. Also, I find it strange that the "winks" I had sent out were all received by the "ladies" within 2 or 3 minutes of each other. Could be an automated system whereby software my "winks" were relayed to the "ladies" who then proceeded to tease me costing me many, many credits as they never answered back. That could be due to the fact that many of the "ladies" are not FULL members but only guests* in AM's system. I have learned from this fiasco 2 times already. There'll not be a strike 3! So, save your hard earned money and go elsewhere. In closing, you will find there is no way to verify the positive reviews they have. *Guests aren't able to read contact info I had provided in my messages, unless they buy credits themselves. Live and learn!
You are married, kids, and successful career.
By putting your profile at AM, you are basically bare naked in public waiting for being taken advantage of. What would bad people would do? If you don't know the answer to this question, you are just miserable fools. AM is sea of shark looking for innocent Joe who is gambling his life for one night sex. Never give your real picture, real name, real phone number. Get a monger phone if you need. You might lose entire social life, marriage, kids, reputation at one single blow by these fake people. Get threatened after sharing all of your real info with someone sitting behind the monitor who is not hot sexy blonde.
This site is a scam. I have been on for less than one week (joined 9/2021) and have received communications from several obvious bots: - 1) bots that say, "send a message and photo and I'll decide if I'm interested," even though I have a robust profile and lots of photos; 2) bots that have canned garbage that obviously shows that no human read my profile; 3) even a bot that used the very same model in another account with an almost verbatim profile. What a joke! I've cancelled and can only hope that AM only conned me out of $60 for the initial 100 credits. Someone should sue these sleazebags.
Tip for consumers:
This site is simply a fraud.
It's not a complete scam. I met someone and had a great affair. I am currently on my second try on the site and I'm talking with two different real women (still haven't sealed the deal). That being said, there definitely are a lot of fake female accounts on the site. One problem is that AM has an affiliate program that pays the affiliates for female profiles generated that are active. This encourages the affiliate to create fake female profiles and actively try to suck the tokens from the guys. If you are able to see past that, and have enough money to not miss $50, this site is worth a try.
I was on Ashley Madison about eight years ago and had great success but boy, has it changed! These days the site management is as aggressive about scamming you as are the Nigerian guys posing as young women. I have been on here for about two weeks and seriously, eight of ten messages scams. The site has numerous shady tricks designed to get you to purchase credits so that you can communicate with the scammers they send your way. This place is really gotten disgusting. My best advice is stay the hell away.
I switched to Ashley Madison last year after all the hullabaloo with VM. I found it ok and used it for four of 5 months. Had a few interesting chats but in the end decided there just weren't enough new women in my area being added so switched over to nostringsaffair.com at the start of this year and have been using that ever since. For me its about having plenty of options locally or it just isn't worth it, so that's why I ended up cancelling AM and switching over. Good site otherwise though.
I haven't been on this site that long, but so far, every connection has been a scam. Referring you to sign up for other websites, webcam girls, or romance scams, I have had them all in under a month! - I will definitely not be adding credits to my account. Glad I only took the Intro credits.
Tip for consumers:
Nice layout and easy to use, but the ladies I encountered were all scammers.
This site is bogus for many reasons. Mostly populated with sex workers, looking to fleece you or make you a "sugar daddy". Those women that are there, are usually racists, have an AXE to grind, or just plain lame, and into mind games. Don't waste your time, money and searches because the site caters to the women that want revenge, money or just to "F" with you. Literally found it to be full of racists, bigots and women that need to grow the "F" up.
Don't be a fool expecting to meet someone the first week. It takes time. When I first signed up I did not get a single response within the first two weeks. People complaining about AM usually feel like they got cheated (isn't it ironic) but the reality is that they just weren't patient enough. There are lots of members and the chance of having an affair if you live in a major city isn't bad at all. I personally like Saphrina a little more because for me it hooked me up a little faster but maybe that was just luck, who knows. In general I'd recommend AM. Just keep in mind that it is not an online-brothel. Women won't be waiting there to fulfill your desire.
I've heard and read that most of the women profiles are fake. I tried a free subscription to try it out, and of course I received a decent amount of "replies" on my profile. After a couple months of that I bought the minimum amount of "credits" for interaction with these women. I've used up half of my credits sending messages and haven't received a single text message from a supposedly interested woman. I would avoid this site if you are a guy. Women are free, so they have nothing to lose.

Don't waste your money
Read a lot of good things about this and nostringsaffair.com (these two seem to be the main leaders that can be trusted in the area of online affair hookup sites. I joined a couple of weeks ago and ive been impressed. Need to find something soon or ill lose my mind! Thanx 4 reading / Big Dave from the West Midlands:-)
I was super suspicious about Ashley Madison but I am very aware that the only sure fire way to hook up with married chicks on the net is to have at least two (if not more) dating site memberships. Now Nostringaffair.com has served me well over the many months that ive been using it, but with a shortage of other highly recommended options I gave in and decided to reluctantly give Ash Mad a shot. And boy do I feel silly now for doubting it lol! The site is super sleek and simple to navigate, there are plenty of married chicks online at any given time and ive had some nice replies and some super sexy instant message sessions with a few of the members. I'm glad I gave it a chance, it has always been the match of the affairs dating world and I guess I just listened to the haters when I should have been making my own mind up. Wont make that mistake again! Lesson learned lol Now, just gotta make sure the other half doesn't find out ha!
I turned to AM after deciding I needed something extra in life. I'm 26 and married, having been with my husband since we were 16. When I first signed up it was very clear how scarce we females were with the overload of messages I received. After some searching and weeding through I found some wonderful men to talk to. It's true that all the good ones are married because these guys are amazing and just looking for some affection and attention that they aren't receiving otherwise. I no longer have a profile because I found someone on there in a similar situation as me who lives close and I see him everyday and it is so wonderful. People are so quick to think of AM negatively but all I know is it's made 2 people very happy.
I switched to AM last year after all the hullabaloo with Victoria Milan. I found it ok and used it for four of 5 months. Had a few interesting chats but in the end decided there just weren't enough new women in my area being added so switched over to NoStringsAffair at the start of this year and have been using that ever since. For me its about having plenty of options locally or it just isn't worth it, so that's why I ended up cancelling AM and switching over. Good site otherwise though.
Avoid this place at all costs. I created an account less then 5 days ago and in that period I have received 4 emails. The problem with them is that I have to but credits to spend to see what they say. First Flag. 2nd even bigger problem is that looking at the who viewed me list not one of them viewed my account. So private people or Ashley Madison employee sending me emails trying to con me into buying credits?
Finally to completely delete my account they want to charge me $19.99 That has got to be considered extortion. You can hide your account for free but I wonder how hidden it is. Thankfully I'm single so this can't come back to haunt me. But others certainly won't be so lucky.
Tip for consumers:
Don't
Mostly a scam with fake profiles and heavy messaging fee. They post return messages making it sound real but actually are not. They expect you to spend 100s of dollars before it actually works. Dont waste your time try a bar instead.
The reputation kept me from buying credits for a while but when I finally decided to pay things got good.
But let me clarify: I'm a wealthy, decent looking man who takes care of his body. I've had success on three other affair /adult dating sites; Saphrina, Aff and another one who I will not name because I don't particularly like it. So I know what I am doing.
Buttom line; You need to buy credits if you expect results. It can be a little pricey but can b worth it. If you are not decent looking things will become a little tougher. Be prepared to lower your expectations.
Guys, this site sucks! The girls are either old skanks or good looking scams! EVERY decent looking girl ended up asking for money, OR wanting me to pay for some scam "safe dating verification " website. Don't waste your money nor time!
The biggest scam on the internet. This site have about 95% of fake profiles created by asheley madison people so you think that u are actually communicating with a real person. BE CAREFUL they will also send u an email address to communicate with them, its fake, you are wasting your money. And beside lets face it a married women who is looking for sex, doesn't have to go on a web site, all she has to do is look around her and choose.
Their charge system is a big scam and they are way over priced. This site is not worth a dollar.
Don't waste time on this site. All the profiles are fake, I even came across 3 profiles with pictures of the exact same person. They send you messages that you have to use credit to open, only to get some lame question like "r u online" then you respond and never hear from them again, until after your credit runs out then all of a sudden your mailbox is filled to bursting with superhot chicks... but of course you have to pay more money to open their messages. Trust me guys just get a beer and go to a bar or club. Total scam
I am a female with a disabled husband. Loved this site. Found a long term paramour that I adore. Ladies, you will have lots, of guys to choose from. I wanted some one who wanted more than a short term relationship. Be honest about what you are looking for. My guy was on the website 9 months before he found me. He did have one casual date that did not work out. We are both in our 60s! Pure Joy!
As soon as u join u get messages like "xxx has indicated she is interested in someone just like you. You should send her a custom message to connect." so the user is not interested in me but in someone like me? Aha! And over 50 million members? Are you sure? How many of them are active? You know what: i am not buying it!
The site is nothing more than a money pit. To communicate between two members, BOTH members have to spend 50 plus dollars in order to read what is sent and received. Listen to the 1 star reviews and stay away from his money pit of a site. The site algorithm picks random users and acts like they viewed your profile or sent you a message which is only a plot to get you to spend a lot of money for nothing. This is a false site with no chance of meeting anyone.
