Like the plethora of other dating sites out there, you will have to cut your way through the fake profiles that are taking advantage of the platform to their own benefit, but they are generally fairly easy to spot.
That being said, this site DOES have LEGIT women who are genuinely interested in developing relationships. I spoke with at least two or three real legit women from here, exchanging personal contact information and talking with them for real on the phone or skype. After a while, I really hit it off with one of them and continued talking to her, every day. Eventually I set up a trip to meet her (in Russia) and things went amazingly well. We have met several more times and continue to talk every day. I for one feel very lucky. After two years of our long distance relationship (which neither of us ever thought would realistically work) we are going to get married this fall.
Tips for making this site work:
-Be honest about what you are looking for
-be communicative, and weed out the women you ask for money to use translation services or visa applications or whatever
-watch for the typical scam patterns from users (I'd say about 50% of the profiles are fake, the other 50% are real)
-don't rush into anything, talk to and really get to know your matches, exchange real life contact info. And find out about arranging a meeting. (go there first, don't offer to bring them to you)
I have honestly met the woman of my dreams from here, and I never expected her to be what she is, but here we are!
