Fraud and Scam Warning

This Site specifically and emphatically warns members never to send money to anyone that they meet on This Site. A very small number of profiles on This Site (and most similar sites) may not be genuine and may belong to scammers that may manage to slip through our extensive filters and pose as people who they are not. This Site has no way of determining the validity of any communication that you receive from another member or the validity of the person behind such communication. We believe that these scammers are few in numbers, but the damage they can cause may be enormous. These scammers will typically pose as an attractive woman or man. They will initiate contact with other members and will at some point during the interaction request money from the other person. This could be a request in the form of a loan, assistance for food, assistance for medical treatment, assistance to cover travel expenses to visit that member or assistance to smuggle a fortune out of a particular country. The list is endless. The bottom line is that we are warning our members to never send any money to anyone that they meet on This Site for any reason whatsoever. Chances are 100% that the sending member will be defrauded of that money and will become another unhappy fraud victim. It is a violation of This Site's policy to solicit money from or to send money to any member on This Site. It is the responsibility of each member to report to This Site administrator through the "CONTACT US" link below any request made by another member for money or any correspondence received from another member involving a financial transaction.

This Site is Held Harmless

You explicitly, expressly and totally understand and agree that This Site is held harmless by you and anyone else against any wrongdoing, damage, scams, misrepresentation, inappropriate contact, untruthfulness, trickery, or deceit perpetrated against you by any member that you meet on This Site or on any of our affiliated sites, or that you meet through any links located on This Site or any of our affiliated sites. You completely understand that the internet is fertile ground for scams and fraudulent schemes perpetrated by unscrupulous parties that have the ability to join This Site and other sites while keeping their true identity, motives and character undetected. You completely understand and fully agree that it is your responsibility and solely your responsibility to get to know the person that you are communicating with. It is your responsibility and solely your responsibility to conduct all the necessary investigation of all people that you are in communication with and to verify the credibility of the information, claims and representations made to you by any other member that you meet through This Site.

Monitoring Policies and Practices

This Site is committed to making the use of our site a safe and pleasant experience for our members. In order to do this, This Site reserves the right to periodically monitor, either at random, or selectively, member correspondences within the site. This includes all communication sent or received through the email system, winks, and instant message system.

VIP Membership Program

Members who have taken the time to create an excellent profile on the site and to upload good photos in their profiles may become eligible for our VIP member program. From this population of outstanding member profiles with photos, a limited number of profiles are selected monthly at random to participate in the VIP member program. Profile selection, program duration and scope are entirely at the discretion of site management. The VIP member program is completely voluntary and entails the following benefits.

Site management assists VIP members in marketing themselves to as broad a range of potential matches as possible. This may include but is not limited to: Including VIP member profile basics and photo in our "Potential Ideal Matches" bulletins that are periodically sent out to other members, sending internal email messages on behalf of the VIP member from the VIP member's site profile to members of the opposite gender located within the VIP member's general geographic area requesting that they view VIP member profile and to contact VIP member if interested, including VIP member photos on our landing pages used with our Google and Yahoo search marketing campaigns, and inclusion in any other exposure or contact method useful in marketing the VIP member profile to potential matches on the site.

A duplicate VIP profile is set up on behalf of members selected for VIP membership. This duplicate VIP profile is an exact copy, including photos, of the profile that the members themselves created and submitted to the site. From this duplicate VIP profile, the member has unlimited wink sending and unlimited message sending privileges.

VIP members are assigned a special email address so that a VIP member's personal email address is not cluttered with notifications of messages from other members.

Important Note: The VIP program is intended as a value-added feature and expanded service for those members that have taken the time to create an outstanding profile and to upload photos. Under no circumstances should any of the exposure assistance used to assist VIP members in increasing their exposure to be interpreted by the receiving members as a solicitation to remain a member on the site, to correspond with the VIP member, to introduce the VIP member to another member, or to upgrade to Platinum membership

The site specifically advises all members never to upgrade to Platinum membership based solely on a single or even repeated communication from other members. A member should only upgrade to Platinum membership if he or she believes that the overall benefits of Platinum membership are worthwhile, and that the overall benefits and positive experience of being a Platinum member on the site is worth the cost. Please never upgrade just because you received an email, a wink or an Instant Message from another member. Upgrade only if you feel that this site meets your overall long term needs in terms of appearance, ease of use, functionality, and overall benefits and positive experience afforded by being a Platinum member on the site.

Cupid Match Technology

To improve user experience and help facilitate more relevant matches during a user's time on our platform, we have incorporated our proprietary Cupid Match Technology to help users become matched with other users based on similar criteria such as location, age range, and gender preference. All users who join the site will automatically be enrolled in this matching system. Our Cupid Match Technology may send messages out to potential matches on your behalf automatically informing them of the potential match opportunity. In addition you may also receive messages automatically informing you of potential matches. If you wish to be removed from this program please contact the administrator and we will be happy to remove you from the program.

Unpredictability of Email reply Rate

Some members that you send an email message to may not respond to your email message. Although this can be quite frustrating, it could be due to a number of factors. The member you are trying to reach may be talking to other members and is not interested in starting something new. The member may also elect not to respond to you because they are not interested in your profile or they do not see a picture in your profile.

To improve your email reply success rate, it is important that you have a well written profile with a minimum of grammatical errors. It is important that you upload a good flattering picture of yourself. It is also important that our email to the member be interesting, polite, informative and pleasant to read. Failure to do the above will almost certainly result in less than satisfactory email reply results.

It is important for you to note that just because a member sent you an email message, it does not guarantee that the same member will answer your reply email message to them. This site is extremely active and people meet other people very quickly. Our best advice is for you to reply immediately to any email message that you receive before the sending member loses interest and /or moves on to the next member that interests them.

Unpredictability of Instant Message Chat sessions

The member you are trying to reach may be busy chatting with other members, they may have too many chat windows open, or may be away from their computer. The member may also elect not to respond to you because they are not interested in your profile or do not see a picture of you in the Instant Messenger chat window.

To improve your chat success rate, it is important that you have a well written profile with a minimum of grammatical errors. It is also important that you upload a good and flattering picture of yourself.
