Colombia is known for Gold, emeralds, and some of the most beautiful women in the world. So a site like this comes up showing these girls looking for a ticket out of a difficult life, and, what's best then hooking up with an American citizenship who is looking to hook with one of these gems?
So this site seems perfect on all accounts.
The problem is, there quite a few people trying to scam men out of money and that's where the problem lies.
The site does try to protect their members by posting warnings about tactics used by women and scammers from other countries. But they cannot stop certain things from happening.
Here are a few tips from my personal experience. I 'm too old and wise to fall for some of these tactics, but it does happen.
First tool we all have is common sense, use it!
Number one. No 20 year old women that looks like she should be on TV is going to want to leave her country to live with some old fart, unless it's someone like Warren Buffett!
I mean, look at some of the profiles, some of them post their target age range from 40-99!
Now, I'm a 65 year old male who has conserved himself by never drinking or smoking and it shows on my profile
I get likes from 18-60 year old women.
Even the 60 year old's are hot.
Here are are some of the tactics to watch out for based on my experience.
The first phasing trick is the "Like" it's meant for members that are attracted to you, to show interest. Most of the time it's some gorgeous female wearing skimpy clothes,
So you are flattered and you reply.
You reply in a short sentence or paragraph asking to clear up something on their profile. Scammers don't have time for that so they will respond in (what I think) pre-fabricated phrases, or just answer, "Si" or "no" and will tell you little or nothing about themselves. What they will do is say something like, "Hey good looking, fate has brought you here, I really want to know more about you, her is my number, call me on Watsapp" it's there way of luring you from the safety of the site. The staff try to monitor these things and kick them off the site but they can't catch them all. They do post tips and warnings about scammers.
There are some honest women on there but they are not that marketable or they are young and have multiple children that come with the package. I'm just to old to support a young women and her kids, who knows who fathered them and what's in their DNA!
I hope this was some help!

Tip for consumers:
Beware of Beautiful Colombian gems!
