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!
Many artificial female profiles. Artificial because their profiles indicate they reside in your home town, but after a few text messages when there is good confab, one finds out the female profile is located in some distant land. The site has a Boolean rating system for evaluating a character's profile. This may appear as useful, however there is no provision to rate the profile as "real", or "artificial". Perhaps if the site were to include those two characteristics in the rating system, then maybe the entire online dating act would begin to shape up.
I admit that I received lots of dubious mails and chat requests from stunning women all across the world and I am sure that a lot of them were fake. But I did travel to a different city for business and within a few hours met a nice woman in my hotelroom. It works! I've had experiences in a comparable way on Saphrina and would also recommend it. Those adultery sites are far from perfect but they work.
Total scam site, young hot pictures of, well, who knows but I started receiving messages from girls saying that they're in town visiting their cousin, "oh yeah great, what part of town are you in?" that's the end of that scammer. Another major problem is all the review sites giving them 5 stars, yep, they're scam sites too. Any review site giving for example, ‘Be Naughty' 5 stars, is a scam site as well. B N is one of the worst scam sites ever.
Tip for consumers:
Don’t go there.
Products used:
I bought 100 credits for $50.00, still have 20 left.
Paid $80 just to send a few messages to women only for it to go nowhere. Most didn't even bother responding even though it's free for women to message. I'm a good looking/fit guy in my mid 30's making over $100k a year, but most of these women who are at best 4-5's and probably with kids have the luxury to be extremely picky. The guy to girl ratio is probably 10-1, so even remotely attractive women receive 20 messages a day from mostly bozos. Not gonna pay another $80 to send messages to 5's and not even get a response. What a joke…
Don't buy into the hype of attractive attached career women or housewives looking for alternatives. More like 99% Nigeria scammers trying to milk you out of your credits with phony profiles. The 1% that are real are short and huge BBWs that are desperate and can't find a boyfriend.
Save your money guys. Seriously don't throw away $50.00 like I did or even more up to $250.00.
I can see why no men get hookups on here! It's all men who are in their mid 40 slump. Hot women can find their own hookups without going on a sorry place like this. Save your money fellas and go on a cam site like streamate and get anything and everything u pay for With plenty gorgeous women to choose from. Some will even hookup offline.
Men really need to watch their credit cards! AM is a scam to get you to pay for credits to contact women when they prevent the women from responding by suspending their memberships or keeping their memberships in pending while you pay for credits to keep contacting them. I set up an account and in 24hours was contacted by over 110 men (some repeatedly with winks and favorites) only to be prevented from responding or sending a key to view my photos. When I questioned this practice my membership was totally suspended!
Ashley Madison is a SCAM to make money on you men! Beware!
AshleyMadison hasnt got me laid yet but its early days & its looking pretty positive (fingers & toes are crossed lol!) so hopefully just a matter of time. I have a membership on nostringsaffair.com which has worked for me a few times so I'm using those two.
This site is packed with ugly old men that lie about their age. Some even post pictures of younger men to get a first date. Thinking you won't realize the person on the profile and the one that showed up are totally different. There are lots of cheap men, flakes and dogs on this site too. I moved to the single's dating site and I'm having a much better experience. The men are all young and available and they want to meet ASAP. They don't mind I'm married. There are a lot of young men that just want sex no strings attached, they have their own place, they have more time to see you. They can be more flexible around your time.
I am a woman using Ashley Madison and I would totally recommend it to other women. It is a female friendly cheater websites and really the best if you are a married woman looking for discreet encounters.
It works good for some men. Those men complaining that they haven't met anyone yet usually simply don't fit mine or other women's criteria. I would love to be polite to everyone and answer every single message I receive but that would totally eat up my time. There are many men on Ashley Madison and it makes it hard for them because it is a little unbalanced. Those guys who don't look above average should really use alternative cheater websites like Saphrina. Those who don't mind the competition should use this site. I 've been dating (mostly) married men for five years now and as long as Ashley Madison is free for women I will continue to do so.
I've been on the site for a couple of weeks. While I would agree that there aren't a lot of quality local prospects, they do exist. The other problem is that (like everywhere else in the world) there are SO MANY men, that it is difficult to really connect with a quality woman.
I decided to follow the advices below and created profiles on two other sites a while ago: nostringsaffair.com and saphrina.com.
There's a lot of women on these sites I must say. Some of them are obviously fakes, but here are few simple rules for you to avoid scams:
- Never under any circumstances send any money abroad
- Real women won't ask you to follow her to another site
- It's unlikely that 'nines' and 'tens' will join an affair site. I don't deny it is possible, but I personally don't think they would, so be careful with hot looking ladies.
Follow those common sense rules and you'll be able to focus on the REAL girls!
This company will keep charging your bank account every month until you delete the account altogether. I canceled my monthly subscription stuff and then they turned around and un did it on their end so they can charge me again. $#*! this company they are sneaky with the fees. Also I have screenshots of profiles with same pics on more than one profile and both profiles have different locations and ages and everything. A lot of fake accounts on this site.
If you want to keep your affair secret AdultsFun.club is a better option. It's safer because it's not so well-known and they control their platform: they ban dodgy users so scammers don't run rampant there like they do on AshleyMadison. AshleyMadison is full of scammers and it's very unsafe. You can have people stalking you, requesting money, exposing your correspondence, ruining your reputation. I learned my fair share of lessons: I was blackmailed and this scammer nearly ruined my family.
If you want an affair - AshleyMadison is the wrong place. It's a money scam!
AM managers are greedy. I think they are up to their necks in this scam, otherwise I don't know why they never ban profiles of blackmailers and money hungry scammers. All my reports were ignored. All scammers are still there "working" with their new victims preying on their money.
I have used AM for a couple of years with some degree of success. I gave up last fall since it seemed fake profiles and bots were all that I encountered. I evidently had a senior moment and forgot about the bots, etc and signed up again. Same old bots and fake profiles. I don't believe any of the responses or any notifications I have received are from real people. My advice is to stay away from Ashley Madison.
You have to pay just to see people's pictures, then pay to talk to them. Then most profiles are not real. They are scams looking to take even more money. So you pay all this money and find out it was a waste of time and you don't get those credits back. The whole website is a joke.
Tip for consumers:
You have to pay just to start a conversation. All other dating apps let you pay a monthly fee and talk to as many people as you like. They also charge you a monthly fee that I didn’t know about until it started charging me. So you are paying like $70 to message people then another $40 for no reason at all. I canceled that part and it still worked. So it’s just an extra charge they hope you don’t notice.
I started an Ashley Madison account that is free for women but they do charge men.
They took a whole day to "verify" my account yet I still couldn't respond to any of the men who sent me messages or winks. I sent a email asking why and my account was then blocked.
If you are a man don't waste your money! Real women like me are trying to connect with you but we get blocked by the company so they are just taking your money! I'll use another site thanks
Tip for consumers:
If your a man please know they block legit females
I think they do engage in fraud, but they're smart, it would be pretty hard to catch them at it. For example, I've noticed that I will get return winks from women who I have winked at. I think in many cases AM is creating the return wink to get a guy to use credits to contact these women.
I joined Ashley Madison in 2013 and back in the days it was simply a perfect affair dating site. Today you have great alternatives (Saphrina, for example). Plus another problem is the recent hack. People are confused and unsure. Here is what to do: If you decide to use a cheater website follow some rules: Create a second mail address, if you decide to upgrade your account make sure your husband/wife does not see any of the payment details, never post any pictures of your face. Use different sites: Ashley Madison, Saphrina, and all so on. Make sure you feel comfortable on the affair website! Follow those rules and you should be fine!
I am going to guess that at least 50% of the women on AM are not real. It is kind of suspicious that many have the green dot on, indicating thet are on-line, 24/7. Also I have received responses from women who haven't read my profile and then just disappear. You'd think AM would be trying to do a better job of being authentic after the scandal found that the majority of profiles were fake. Disappointing. There are real women on the site but you are going to burn through a lot of credits finding one.
After a month of trying out the site, this is who I met. 7 web cam girls, 2 escorts, and 1 gal who tried to scam me out of money. Not a surprise really. Run! Run for the hills. Do not waste your money if you are a guy.
First off after you've connected with another profile your chats are supposed to be free. ( wrong!)... Second, I messaged this profile and she messaged be back to correct my F%$KING english with just a single word and the word wasn't wrong, just an alternate word... All replies are 100% Bots!... You can obviously tell!... Buyer beware!... They got my money, don't let em steal yours!
I'm using two affair websites (AM and nostringsaffair) in parralel for about 2 weeks by now and had only 2 dates but still do not get laid
My opinion on both sites: Positive
There are a lot of ways of communication
A lot of woman contact you
Easy in use.
Let's see which of the sites will get me laid faster! ;)
So you are bored with your life and think it is easy to score with a married woman on a website like Ashley Madison or Saphrina? Most guys join and think these women are desperate and all they need to do is sending out a few pickup lines. Don't be a fool! You get out what you put in. Site ain't bad but it you need to put in some work.
Not the best site ive used for meeting married women (thats nostrongaffair.com) but I would say you can sign up an see who is in your nearby area then go from there. I dont think its a scam I just find that I dont get that many replies but prob 'cause in not in a city or some thing like that maybe.
99% of the female profiles are all fake, AM also takes money from you without permission, if you make a credit purchase you are without your knowledge agreeing to a monthly subscription, they are pure and utter cheats and have absolutely no integrity.
Meet bored men & lonely housewives. Define your experience, and live life to the fullest! Life is short. Have an affair.?
