“Still #1 affair site”

Daniel W.
2/27/16

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!

“A site that draws romance scammers.”

Dennis P.
10/27/24

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!

I have been on and off this site for years. If you willing to spend a little time learning how the site works and spend a little bit of money, you can have a great time using this site. I have met dozens of women in person over the years. I have sex had with over 20 of them. Most of them more than once. I have had a couple of long term relationships from the site. So take your time and actually read their profiles and respond showing you actually read their profile and you can have a google time with this site.

As a guy, every single message you write costs credits. Send a wink or an emoji to someone, that's 5 credits. 100 credits is $65. And they send your messages "priority" which is an extra 9 credits without you knowing. Horrible app! Such a rip off. A simple conversation with someone will cost you $50 haha don't do it!

All well known affair sites like Ashleymadison, Saphrina, or whatever ain't that bad at all. Only problem is that you will usually have a pretty bad male-female-ratio. Only the very best profile wins. They are still worth checking out though, especially Ashleymadison still has many members. If you ain't lucky also check out fwb sites like Casualsexonly. Works pretty well if you are straight and honest in your profile. Hope that helps.

It is $#*!ed uo that there is a website and a commercial about a site like this! If you want to have an affair get a divorce you $#*!! Or here is a thought have sex with the woman you made a promise to! If your sex life is not where you want it to be it is partially your fault. It takes two to tango, and women are sexually to. You made a commitment! Follow it! What the $#*! are we teaching our future generations... this world is $#*!ed up! I'm glad I decided not to have children... why would I want my child to think it was ok to break a life long commitment to someone, and if your thinking it is better for the kids if we stay together... if your cheating they know, or will eventually find out. It is funny to me that ppl think they are hiding these things. The truth will always come out.

AM is great for women posting but for men prepared to be scammed in one way or another. I searched the Tri State area 200+ miles and discovered that 75% are fake profiles (no lie)! I was messaged by a nice woman warning me on how AM is scamming Men using those fake profiles. Most use automated messages to entice you to respond using your credits $$$$. Then nothing "crickets"
You also have a lot of single female posts looking for sugar daddies and generous men, You know what that means "wink wink"
Once you seen these cheesy messages, they are easy to spot. So bottom line once you weed out all the junk. This site is a ghost town. In the NY, NJ, CT area lmao..

Hi, is this thing on? OK, basically i've figured out after a looooong time that these sites do work if you follow certain rules, for example:
1 use a good site with good reviews (e. G this one or nostringsaffair.com both rank high)
2 avoid sites that you've never heard anything good about (or anything about period)
3 ALWAYS run a search in your area to see results before you get sucked into paying
4 spend time on your profile and dont copy n paste intro messages, women see thru that jazz
5 when you find a good site dont stop looking, this game is cheap for what youre getting so use multiple sites. Called the law of averages guys;-)
Thank me later & feel free to add me to your xmas card list hahaha. V x

This site isnt perfect but as a woman I dont pay (Im on NostringsAffair.com too as its also free), so im probably a bit less critical than most lol! Ive spoken to a few guys but not met anyone yet that id be willing to risk meeting up with in person. Im hoping that will happen before long, but at the moment the guys that have sent me messages are generally unattractive or just completely gross just because I want an affair doesnt mean you can speak to me like im a ten dollar hoe! The site seems secure though, I wouldnt use it otherwise. Its also really easy to search for people nearby, so it does everything you need.

This whole site is scam. Very hard to find real dates if you are a man. Obviously! You will for sure get some messages for which you be will charged to see from some random profile with no pics asking for your email addresses. Lots of profile seems fake to keep people interested and mostly on here are escorts or some kind of females looking for "sugar dadies" n all lol. Good luck to find real dates or casual encounter without the involvement of money... on top chat plans are expensive around $90 for $100 which may last to text only 7 profiles max. Not going there again and the last things is BEWARE! They text on behalf from some real profile and probably form yours too so that they can use subscriber's credits by enticing you or them to open those measages without the concent of the real profile holders... SCAM! SCAM! Stay away

Waste of time and money. As a guy u HAVE to be a paying member to have any success at all. Initially an ashleybot will mess with u - there are tons. Usually the too good to be true are a clue to the fakes. Plenty of young gold diggers looking g for sugar daddies. Plenty of crazies and i appealing women. Some good ones but usually have high standards- which wasnt a problem for me. Plenty of swingers on here too.
Havent met one couple.
As of yet. Last credit was used to read a lame msg from a lady with a fake pic. Since i was out of credits, i could not respond without paying for another round of bs. This is total scam my methods.
Let's face it, the dbag lawyer who owns the site knows its crap and has to rip people off in order to keep his gravy boat flowing. Plenty of other sites that are more affordable and better results. MadAsh is at the bottom of the list and is relying on press and suckers and imo deceptive and unreasonable business tactics

Tip for consumers:
Short answer - forget u ever heard of this site. Don't bother unless u want to throw money at the worthless dbag owner.

Hi guys,

Today I want to share my AM experiences with you...

AM is short form for AshleyMadison.com and it the largest and best known cheater site. U find literally MILLIONS of women but mostly men ion AM. And people come from all over the planet. Especially many people from Brazil, Canada and Japan.

CONS: It ain't easy to meet women on AM! Most members - maybe 80% and more - are GUYS and those few women receive bunch of messages. They ain't reply on every message! Looking for a better guys-girls-ratiovisit the site called Saphrina, as I also used it with even better results. But u all keep in mind: The guys-girls-ratio is also far away from being 50/50. Another big con is that AM is expensive. Those credits are gone easily once u start chatting. Again, other websites ain't as expensive.

Conclusion: There are problems you may face using AM but I managed to have an affair on this site. I liked other sites more but I was also lucky on AM.

First off, if there are any positive reviews, they're written by people who operate the fake profiles on it. I had a girl add me to her favorites which then sends a message to me saying she's interested and wanting to talk. Ok, I purchase credits and message her and got no response. So I refined my search to those who have been online within the past 48 hours. Guess what? She wasn't. Now how in the hell has someone that hasn't been online in 48 hours sending me messages 20 minutes ago? Plus, if you read these girls profiles, the $#*! doesn't match. A girl that's 5'4" and weighs 105lbs is voluptuous? Or a girl that's 5'2" and weighs 185lbs is fit? Complete bull$#*!. Absolutely none of the profiles are real.

Joined up and within a day was bombarded with the hottest babes... All claiming to be on vacation inyour town. When i quized ane of them about how the weather was outdoors... Said it was ok... alarm bells started ringing, because it was -2 freezing rain, similar kind of bull$#*! with all the rest of them trying to get you to join other sites and paying for exclusive privilages with your credit cards to acess them... AM is full of women who are out to screw you guys in a way that you dont have in mind! Its the guys who need protecting from these opportunist vultures. AM is allowing it to happen under their nose... tut tut tut

Safe to say that most people here are using these affairs sites because the chances of hooking up with a married woman in a bar is non existent. Plus if they arent on AshleyMadison (or any of the other main affairs dating sites like nostringsaffair.com, etc) then theres no chance to get to know them a bit before you meet them, just to be sure they arent going to screw with your life after theyve screwed with your $#*!. I've tried other non-affair sites but it's just too risky. This way you both have the something to lose (your relationship) and it removes a lot of the risk that comes with cheating. I wouldnt cheat any other way.

The women I have contacted on this site are fake. They ask me to download some app called hangouts which probably is a hacker. All the sites charge you money and have all these fake women. Bad thing about AM is they charge at least twice the money for all these fake women. Gentlemen stay away from this site!

Tip for consumers:
Stay away!

Please join me. I plan on contacting my attorney in the AM, As an advertisement came on tv saying bring life back to your marriage. Cheating destroyes marriage. The ad did not say anything about a cheating site. Tricking couples into undoing vows and betraying the marriage they commited to. This site ruined my life, family and married and had me close to killing myself. So close i found muself cutting myself wishing to die. Call your attorney. Help me save lives and families. $#*! you ashley maddison. Thank you for giving me a reason for class action. Together we can find justice in these lies and horrid crime on families.

Male review, guy in the 40s. Been on and off on AM for almost 10(!) years! Met many women, had a long term affair with four women, all lasted many months. My advise, don't spend credits on suspicious profiles. If you are looking for alternatives I'd suggest Casualsexonly and Adultfriendfinder. Iny my opinion only alternatives worth mentioning...

I was on there one month last year. I found most of the profiles to be fake. I would guess about 3 to 1 were fake. And of the one's that were real, about half of them were prostitutes, call girls and women looking for sugar daddys. Plus, no one is talking much about this aspect of the recent hack. The women never paid to be on there so it was a perfect fishing expedition for hookers... real women could easily find men on there so I'm not surpirsed that women love the site. They just don't see all sides of it I suppose...

I am a successful, 47year old. On this site, you have to watch out for whatever seems too good to be true. Many young, beautiful girls will contact you, and you pay the site (in coins) to reply. Recently, a woman who was supposedly 29, connected with me and we were soon sexting and Skyping while she masturbated. She tried to get me to show her my $#*!. Fortunately, I did not, because she recorded our skype and tried to blackmail me! Just be careful, please.

I accidentally purchased $70 woth of credit from Ashley Madison but I just discovered they starting me $29.99 monthly fee without asking for my permission. I spoke with my credit card company and they explained to me that Ashley Madison copied my financial information and used it to enroll me in some kind of contract without my permission or knowledge. I'm hoping and waiting for law suit against AM for scaming and robing people...

This is a ripoff. No one ever replies to you. You'd think that these women are looking for the same thing we are, but they never reply. A lot of times, a girl sends you a message, you pay to read it and all they say is hi. Thats it.
After spending all my inital credits and have 1 (one) legit reply, they automatically billed me for 79.
After I complained, they refunded me and guess what? 4 spectacular ladies immediately wnated to start conversation and opened up their photos. The same ladies that never replied me in the first place. And... Her face is uncovered and photos are sexually explicit. Why would married women do this?

This is a scam. I believe you could eventually score someday, but you'd have to fight through the fakes, and lose a lot of money in the process.

DO NOT use this website.

This website is a scam. Most of the girls on this site are either fake. The rest of them are either some guy in some 3rd world country who's there to try and get you to enter a your credit card on a fake website and will steal your info, the other percentage of girls are whores who should be on craigslist and not this site. The rest if they are real, get so many messages that you won't get a response. This website is a scam. When you first sign up. You will get lots of messages from people who are only there to try and get you to sign up. Believe me. This site is a scam, they will rip you off and keep you wanting more cause you don't get anything.

Tip for consumers:
Get off this site and find another legit site.

I had tried this site once before and decided to give it another try, no good, there are very limited local members who's only interest appers to be to chat. The way this site works, you get 100 credits for the initial purhase, which is expensive. Then you get collect e-mails asking you to chat. Each time you open an e-mail it costs you 5 credits. You go through the credits very quickly without ever being in contact with anybody, then you are prompted to buy more credits. I will never use this site again, it's a ripoff.
