Ripoff Report Verified Safe

Friend Finder, Adult Friend Finder, Alt.com, and all the sites in the Friend Finder Network are all a big Fraud!

- All of the women are fake, they use fake profiles, they use bots in chat, and most of the women on their sites are most likely employed by Friend Finder or bots.

- Many of the photos of their site are of porn stars or other people that have nothing to do with the fake profiles that are posted there.

- Profiles are never removed from their sites so most of the profiles were posted in the 1990's and never taken down. Many of these people have died or have not been to their sites in many years. Emailing these people is worthless.

- Once you give them your credit card number, THEY WILL NEVER STOP BILLING YOU. If you cancel, or even ask your bank to charge back their charges from one site, they will immediately start to re-bill you from one of their other sites. This is a main reason why they have so many sites and bill through so many billing companies.

- They share your personal information with other companies including your email address and credit card information. Your information will be sold to the highest bidder.

Stay away from these (((REDACTED, no record of this claim, verified by Rip-off Report)))!. They are being investigated by several government agencies and their illegal scam operation will be shut down soon!

Excuse me?

'- All of the women are fake, they use fake profiles, they use bots in chat, and most of the women on their sites are most likely employed by Friend Finder or bots.'

Not true, I myself am a living breathing member of this site and have met hundreds of people who are also very real. While there are quite a few bots, there is also quite a few women who dont work for AFF i can think, off the top of my head, of 102 that I have chatted with and met in the flesh.

Many of the photos on there are porn stars or models, and a lot of the people that you get in your cupid reports arent real, but for the most part, their are some genuine people that frequent aff and even meet at weekly get togetheres, although mentioning them or giving someone info on AFF will get you banned.

'- Profiles are never removed from their sites so most of the profiles were posted in the 1990's and never taken down. Many of these people have died or have not been to their sites in many years. Emailing these people is worthless.'

Good thing there is a little note at the top left hand side of the screen that tells you that profiles last log in date....

'- Once you give them your credit card number, THEY WILL NEVER STOP BILLING YOU. If you cancel, or even ask your bank to charge back their charges from one site, they will immediately start to re-bill you from one of their other sites. This is a main reason why they have so many sites and bill through so many billing companies.'

I'm not sure about this factiod. I know that I canceled my membership after the 1st of this year because they kept banning me from chat because I was giving people information about a party that was taking place in December, yet they let bots roam free spamming and flodding rooms with god knows what, all while using racial slurs as well. Although their site does bite quite a bit, I havent been charged and I canceled my membership in Jan and it is now October and I am still a standard member.

Thank You
