Ashley MadisonReviews 899

AM is one of these clever sites that you dont know whether youre joining a dating site or some kind of online Italian clothes store! It could be a fashion brand as it's nice to look at (and really very easy to use) but when I compare it with sites that have actually came through for me in the past (NoStringsAffair the clear example) then it falls short. I'm all for my dating sites to be big businesses and look professional but they need to get me results within 3 months or I move on. In fairness, if NSA stops working for me I would probably come back and give it another try.

I have been in AM for a month now and all i get are requests from scammers. Like today someone contacted me and sent me her email. Turnout it did not work. When I ask her why it was not working she ask me for my e-mail. This kind of attack is very common, you give then your email and the you will receive an email from them with an attachment with pictures. Once you click on the attachment they can download ransomware and bang they own your computer and you have to pay to get your access back. Be careful guys, these individual target lonely men...

Yes, there are fake profiles. Yes, there are escorts.
And yes, scammers. That being said, these should all be fairly easy to identify when you're on the site. I've been on for a little over a month and have had contact off the site with about 7 women. Get the people you're talking to off the site (go to kik, Snapchat or something like it). Also, so many guys blame not talking to any women on the site just being a scam. Maybe don't post a pic of your $#*!? How bout smiling in your profile pic instead of looking like an angry rapist? Common sense, clean yourself before taking a pic... wear a nice freaking shirt. If you're sending real messages to enough women that don't have shady profiles and take the time to create a decent profile yourself, you'll meet someone.

I'd give the site a 1 star but did actually meet one woman 7 months ago. I'm not a hard luck case and don't have issues meeting woman. I thought it would be a nice way to find specifics in what I'm looking for. That said, issues that concern me on the site- 1) The second I ran out of credits, 2 " women" sent me messages collect. How convenient. 2) But, they sent me messages and never looked at my profile? Come on, if you take the time to respond you at least click to see who someone is. 3) They have a " flirt" response on the men's selections that says "Please check out my profile to see if you might be interested in connecting with me. If you are interested, "wink" me back and I will initiate contact!" This is free. It seems fair, only spend money on messages to women that at least show a small amount of interest. The trouble is, The main response you get back is " Sorry, I only have time to review full messages" so a complete waisted set of communications. Come on AM, your way more interested in making bucks than actually providing any meaningful way for people to find others and pay you fairly to do it. Please, show them you don't like their business practices and stop buying credits, cancel you account, and hurt them for taking advantage of people...

I've occasionally chatted with what I think are real women, but mostly men or fakes. I know this because after a while they tell me. Also, I used to get tons of messages and emails from women', so I bought some credits. All of those messages (were talking 3-5 a day?) immediately stopped once I paid them money. That tells me those were fakes, that the site manipulates you into paying for credits. I'm sure 1/1000 profiles on that site are real, but you buy credits to initiate contact only to find that the profiles are escorts or men or whatever. Not worth it.

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!

It is a terrible shame that they have so many fake profiles that are set up just to keep the man spending money on messages that go nowhere. In 1 case I know very well of, a "woman's" profile was told that the messages would stop if she was not willing to take their contact to a free chat site. The "woman" then directed the man, a very close friend of mine, to a "profile verification site" which wanted his credit card details and a hefty monthly fee but on further investigation my friend found the profile verification site to be a bogus scam.
I have been on Ashley Madison's "Friends with Benefits" site for more than 2 months and can not yet say I have found a single genuine profile.
This is very disappointing because I am certain there are many profiles that are genuine but you just can't be sure. I think the best way to know is to, from the very first, ask the other party to chat with you on a free chat app of their choice. I can not see any reason for them not to be willing to do this if they are genuine.
