AFA fake girl profiles!!!...
« on: November 10, 2012, 08:26:28 PM »
Due to the many letters from "real girls" that I've received from AFA, I decided to search for these girls in vkontakte.com (www.vk.com) and (for my surprise) I've found some of them, and I've asked them if there are real and they said no. So I'm want to warn you about this AFA's profile, because are fake:

[Actual links removed for privacy of the REAL ladies]

You can ask them and corroborate for yourself!... If I found more, I will let you know!...

Good work. Expose them all. What was the reaction of these girl when you told them this and how did you find  their profile on vk? Did you  do email search or  did you know the first and last name of the girls.
 
All the big guys AFA, Anastasia, Natasha Club, Russiandatingnetwork  mix lot of junk  profiles with  few good  ones and  scam people especially the newbies. I would encourage everyone to watch these videos by Tony Bochene where he exposed   AFA, Anastasia . We also need to create a youtube  channel  for all these scamming agencies and firms so they show up in the google search.

Unlike Jason, I am very pleased you posted this information.  Keep it up.  The more exposure that happens the more those on this network can see the scams that are going on.  Just because one person has sarcasm doesn't mean that you are not appreciated.  He is not representative of the group that are on this forum.

Thank you.

newjason,
               I would say the point being made is that AFA are using fake profiles to scam men out of letter-writing fees.
Also any men travelling to meet these women may well find the girl won't turn up to meet them,as these girls are unaware of their photo's/details being used by AFA.
Does that make it clear to you ? :wallbash:
 
Thanks for the info chilenoski.If you have helped prevent just one man wasting his time ,emotion and money communicating with these profiles,then you have done him a good service.

Like Jone, and unlike newjason, I also thank you for taking the time to share this information.

As Chelseaboy referred to, if you helped just one man, as I am sure you have, your time and effort were not wasted.

There are millions of profiles on VKontakte for those agencies or sub-agencies who wish to earn by scamming to choose from. If one gets exposed in a way that makes it hard to use, it is replaced by three others.

Instead of trying to expose indivudual profiles, it is more useful to expose the methods used so other men can recognize more easy the difference between a genuine woman and a fake agency profile.

Your status says you are looking. You should concentrate on finding real women, not on finding scammers.

GOB,
        So,a man in his early to mid-twenties shouldn't be wasting his time with teenagers ?
So,when you were aged 20-24 you avoided  girls aged 19-21 ?
 
I didn't realise there was a minimum age stipulation for male users of this forum.
 
Are you aware of the age of chilenoski,or indeed other male users of this forum.?
 
Not every man looking in the FSU for a wife is an old has-been.

 
Maybe,as a grown man,you need to think before posting.

It has been stated before by many others more experienced than you.
 
I'll just repeat it for your benefit.
 
The FSU is not a "get out of jail free card" for the inexperienced or the socially inept, actually FSU dating is quite the opposite.
 
I would suggest that a 20yo man who lives in the GoodOl' USA or anywhere else for that matter falls easily into the inexperienced category.

FWIW, a 20yo boy man better polish up on his dating skills before he attempts a trek to the FSU.

chilenoski,
 
did you try to strike up a relationship with any of the 'real' girls on vk?.... or are you just gathering evidence to crack the case?

I agree with you totally,but that doesn't mean young men cannot look,so nothing should be assumed.
 
Actually Anastasia are now targeting young men, who watch college football games in the USA, with their new tv adverts.

Damn,

All that time wasted on 16 year olds.  You mean that they weren't taking me seriously?

As a rule of thumb, Chilenoski, GOB happens to be right about one thing.  There is no real possibility that anyone under the age of 23 is even remotely serious about finding a man from the West.  If you immediately slice off all under that age, then your pursuits of scammers will bear more fruit and be a better service for the initiated if that is your intent.  I, personally, ammend that figure to 28 and then assume guilty until proven innocent if under thirty.

And I am a child compared to GOB - or at least the way he presents himself.

I think the marketing of the agencies shows a lot more intelligence as the posts of some dinosaurs here. Gentlemen, the world has changed.
You do not longer have to be socially inept and inexperienced with local women to broaden your perspective. Internet has globalized connections of the young generation, and for those who dare to dream and travel there are many possibilities.
Of course the elder will prefer to set a minimal level of age and experience, in order to reduce the competition they otherwise might get.

Exactly.

Yet this man admits to have contact with these women, who admit they are not on the dating site. So their profile pics were stolen.
IMO
It's a poor choice to link their vk pages to a romance scam article.

Then why not just simply state that fact?
It's Going to far in posting peoples personal vk profile links. Espesially if the girls are innocent.

I agree with Shadow.
 
A young man of 23-24,who's been dating plenty of girls in his home country,will probably have a lot more game than a guy in his 40's/50's who married his high school sweetheart,and suddenly finds himself alone.
 
That guy in his 40's/50's, with no decent wife options in his own country,so very little recent dating experience,believes the MOB hype in the FSU and becomes food for the feeding frenzy of the sharks there.
 
So,if we're talking about age,nothing can be assumed regarding experience,grown man or not.

So I'm want to warn you about this AFA's profile, because are fake:

...


So, you actually had a conversation with an entity who admitted to being an apparition! That may be some kind of a first!  ;D


The women contacted through VK stated that they are not members at AFA?  Well, if they were being paid to work the chats as many are there should be expectation that they would deny it, the same as if they were not members - separation of business and pleasure.


However, Jason does have a point.  Their VK profiles, while public, really shouldn't be listed here in a scam thread.


It has been well documented how those systems function so to name or point out individual "discrepancies" is akin to bailing water from a rubber raft leaking air.   


It is better to have a blanket statement similar to:


Be aware that AFA and similar pay per interaction sites are designed to part the maximum amount of money from your wallet and not all ladies are sincere or even real.

I also found some of those girls on Facebook,they also told me that they never put a Profile on those sites and have been shocked about that fact.
Some girls told me they did put a profile there but they get paid for it.
You can test it on your own,search the Anastasias and Julias ins FB and ask them if they have written the Letter which you get yesterday in your Inbox.You will be suprised what they will tell you.. :cluebat:
