AnastasiaDate

A woman on Anastasia "wrote" to me.

I found her on another website and thanked her for her recent letter via Anastasia.

She informed me that she hadnt been on that site for 3+ months and that there was NO way that she could have written to me, and that she was in a relationship now and so was not interested in me... I will leave the rest to you imagination;)

This is NOT the first time that this has happened...

Hi Gregory,

Thanks for contacting me, but I stand by my comments. I don't need to be identified on your site

The women who I have found on your site, I contacted independently.

They have informed me, on a NUMBER of occasions, that:-
1) That did not contact me
2) That they had not been on your site for " a number of months..."

I was also in contact with one of your translators via a different web site who also advised me that your site was a scam, that she and other translators had to reply to men who contacted women(WITHOUT the women's knowledge) who didn't speak English. The translators had to "make up" letters to get men to write to them so they had ot buy expensive credits... and that some of the translators didnt get paid even thought assurances had been made!

Maybe your company should be a bit more open/honest and ethical? After all you are playing with the emotions of lonely people!

UPDATE.

I havent been on Anastasia. Cm for a while.

Suddenly I started to get many messages.

I asked Customer Services if my account was "live" and was advised that it was NOT.

I enquired how women could contact me if they couldnt see my profile and I was fobbed off with " they may have saved it".

YEAH RIGHT!

100% FAKE SITE

Reading some five-star opinions, which are incomparably shorter than the one-star ones, I came to a conclusion that some authors:
A – are employed by anastasiadate, or
B – are on the stage of communication and are carried away by sweet words and the prettiness of girls, or
C – have just started and are in euphoria, just like the one who writes: "What an awesome ladies! Elena, Svetlana, Natalia…" (Although the level of English indicates that he is far away from English speaking zone!),
All those reviews do not bring any facts, AnastasiaDate only praise the service.
But can you imagine a poor service in such a factory of money? If it wasn't excellent it could make customers suspicious and frighten them and their money.
I have been on this site long enough to know that there is a lot of deceit here.
If the site deserved trust (as some write) why it sends letters from married women? Some facts:
ID 1740005 - Julia Gluschenko - married, a daughter
ID 1739166 - Tatyana Nesterova - married, a daughter
ID 1760895 - Ekaterina Podgornaya - married, a daughter
ID 1752186 - Anna Suprun - married, a daughter
ID 1570179 – Alexandra Karova - married, a daughter
ID 1729698 - Stella Ivachenko – married, a son
ID 1584619 - Natalya Vasilyevna Tsiko - married
ID 1676281 - Anna Galich - married
ID 1585322 – Oksana Matyushkova – married, a son
ID 1725856 - Alena Polyanskaya - married
ID 1649618 - Irina Vasilevich - married
ID 1728314 – Nina Kirichenko – married, a son
ID 1653713 - Ekaterina Kulik – married
ID 1695947 – Liliya Bezverkhaya – married
ID 1678564 - Liliya Khilchuk - married
Etc., etc.,
All of above profiles still exist, most of them are still active and try to communicate with men.
A lot of sites of other married girls have been removed since I became a member, probably because the girls didn't want to take part in such dealings any longer. (But I received letters from their profiles when they already had husbands or were just preparing to the wedding).
I suppose the site is a kind of part time job for these women, and a source of additional income. There is another possibility: agencies hired personal data and send letters on behalf of the women without their knowledge, anyway money goes to the agencies in both cases.

Another point proving dishonesty of this site is that a lot of women write they don't have children.
Actually they have one or two children, usually illegitimate, which is not so important for earning money if the man is not to be ever met in reality.
I don't place their ID numbers here, because it would take a lot of time and space.

Someone could ask how I know all of it. After some time of being a member of this site I came across the negative reviews of anastasiadate on the internet. Thanks to it I became suspicious and started to verify girls. How?
Well, facebook, vkontakte, odnoklassniki. To my surprise I began to find photos of their wedding receptions, photos with their children, photos with their beloved boyfriends. How did I feel? Try to imagine.
Unfortunately only about 30 percent of women I received letters from have profiles on social sites, so how can you be sure about the rest of them.

All in all, if there is another guy who writes a five-star opinion: "Anastasiadate is the only dating site I trust" I will wish him good luck and say to myself: a fool and his money are soon parted.

Although Im sure there are some ladies on this site who are real, AnastasiaDate are greatly outnumbered by liars and scammers, and Anastasia Date sets the stage for this scam! They claim to have this great and serious fraud prevention team, and I have seen the videos they have produced, but all this is bogus! I was not looking for some young girl less than half my age, I was interested in meeting a lady who is mature and respectable and similar in age to the ladies I date at home.

I was in contact with two ladies on this site. The photos of one were real enough because I actually met her. The problem was that even though we discussed the details of our lives for almost a year, when I met her she had no idea who I was. All she was interested in was splitting the $20 per hour I paid her interpreter who, as it turns out, was her best friend. They admitted they even went to church together. Oh, she also wanted $600 for braces for her teeth, which were perfectly good. Although this lady had no interest in meeting a foreigner, they were fun so I did not report her.

I was more serious about the second lady I met on this site. She we very intelligent and business minded. She claimed she was the daughter of a wealthy business owner, she had never been married, had no children and she lived at home with her sister and parents. She even had a friend deliver a gift to my hotel for me while I was in Kharkov, but claimed she could not see me because she was in the hospital at the time. After many online searches for this lady, I finally found her full name, which led me to a site where she had posted many of her AD photos, along with photos of her marriage, her husband, and yes, her child.

After reporting this lady to Anastasia Date, including photographic evidence and web links to the evidence, they deleted her profile, which is a good thing, but refuse to honor their guarantee. As of 9 months later, they claim their fraud team is still investigating. What kind of a serious fraud team takes 9 months AFTER the lady in question has been deleted?

Stay away people! You WILL lose your money!

~~~~~~~~~~ EDIT 3-14-2018 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SCAM! It has now been 2 months since these people replied to my review, and a full year since I filed my original complaint, and I have still heard nothing!

~~~~~~~~~~EDIT 4-14-2018 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SCAM! It has now been 3 months since these people replied to my review, and over a full year since I filed my original complaint, and I have still heard nothing!

Its time to speak out against this site once and for all. I have waited for the exact moment to do so and I want to tell all but before let me say that this review might be a bit long but very strong. I present several stories from others in my research that prove this site is a whole lot of trouble! So sit back, buckle up your seat belts and prepare for a ride you will never want to forget!

1. Erroneous Site (Story from Marina Girl in Kiev from (no1reviews.com)

I would like to tell personal story about Anastasia.com. I am girl from Kiev (Ukraine), I am nice, well-educated and I know English. I wanted to find serious relationship with help of site Anastasia. Well, I registered on the site with my real name and stated that I am woman looking for a man. Can you believe, some mistake has happen and I started to receive invitations from girls to be a member and to chat with them or to read their e-mails? I felt that Anastasia doesn't expect girls to make registration by themselves; AnastasiaDate prefer to work with local agencies. Well, than I met a girl who was working in the local international dating agency, partner of Anastasia. She told me that she needs to write and send hundreds of e-mails every day, trying to make new members and to have chat with them. She receives percentage from payments. Also I found many ads in the local press, where girls are invited to work in chat with foreigners. Also there are special people in the agencies, who write very emotional letters about love and relationship.
Than I studied other international dating sites with Russian/Ukrainian girls. I found out that most popular girls usually have very provocative pictures. I mean that girl in underwear takes your attention more than girl in dress. There are many topless girls. Believe me I grew up and live in Ukraine, I am young and beautiful, but not me not any of my friends can not let provocative pictures appear in the Internet. Don't believe that Ukrainian teacher can place a picture in the Internet dressed in a sexy bra. She has colleagues, classmates, alumni, parents, pupils, relatives, and friends and so on. It will be very bad if somebody from this list will see her in underwear (or topless or nude) in the Internet dating site. It can completely destroy professional and personal reputation (I take a teacher for example, but it is true about doctors, clerks, managers and so on). Who don't care? Well, people from show-business (I didn't find girls on the dating site with such field of work), professional daters and prostitutes. I am Ukrainian and after my own experience and investigations I don't believe to dating sites. It is monopoly of professional writers, daters, and fake agencies Well, I decided to try well-known international site. I filled out application form on Match.com. Next day I couldn't access to my page. I wrote a letter to the customer service. The answer was "We don't accept profiles from your part of world any more, because of scammers".

2. Paid Professional Chatters and Money Making Phone Service (Story from DG from Texas, no1reviews.com abbreviated version)

Guys, let me share with you a personal story: I speak fluent Russian, lived in Ukraine for a long time, and now live in Texas. I'm in my mid-30's, average looking, stable job. Recently I traveled to Odessa, Ukraine, to meet several girls from Anastasia. Since I was able to speak the language fluently, I befriended ladies and got to know them pretty well. I also learned from them the "inner workings" of the dating service of "Anastasia." I could NOT believe what I heard. They told me ladies get paid a percentage of money to write you letters, so it's in their best interest to keep you paying credits $$$ to open letters and then force you to pay more $$$ to reply to those ladies. Very few ladies are actually interested in meeting you as most of them are either: a) in school, or b) dating local guys, or c) married already but are working in Anastasia to make money on the side. Girls told me that sometimes one girl will write responses to as many as 5 different guys, or even worse another Ukrainian guy will pretend to be a girl when responding to you! Yikes! Guys, you gotta be realistic. Yes, the website lists gorgeous sexy girls. Why do you think that is? Because sex sells. We all want to believe that a hot, young, 22 year old girl will find us attractive, so we pour tons of money to chat with her (which is very costly $$$ proposition). Let me tell you, it's a COMPLETE waste of your TIME and MONEY! Still not convinced, and want to use Anastasia to meet ladies? *Sigh* Okay, let me guide you then. When you first create a profile, you will get LOTS of introduction letters from ladies. The agency sends these block letters to you automatically, whether the lady is interested in you or not. So, be VERY selective in which letter you open and reply, because it costs you credits $$$ to open a letter and more $$$ to reply... Notice there is no email or phone number listed in her profile. Wonder why that is? Well, as I found out to my dismay, Anastasia goes to great lengths NOT to give you girl's contact info, but to involve you in a very lengthy (AND VERY COSTLY $$$) chat service with girls instead... The key though is NOT to chat ENDLESSLY as it will cost you a $$$ fortune! Trust me, these girls will find innovative ways to empty your wallet quickly in chat by adding expensive video, so be careful and cancel video service immediately if she activates it during your chat!

The next step is to call them (costs around $40 per 5 min through Anastasia)... Realize, you only have 5 minutes when you call (it costs more $$$ if you want to make it a 10-min call)... Ask her for her home number... If she doesn't want to give it to you, forget her! She is a pro-dater and she is NOT worth your time! Anybody who says they need to CONTINUE to use ANASTASIA chat service is blatantly LYING to you. Trust me, they do NOT have to use it!... Do NOT continue to use Anastasia's phone service to talk to these girls as you'll lose TONS of $$$ money quickly.

My main point is this: Anastasia knows that sex sells and will use it to their advantage to empty your wallet quickly. Most girls are NOT interested in leaving with you as chat is just another way for them to make money in a poor economy.

As an experiment, I decided to test the girls commitment to get off PAID chat and communicate with me through FREE means like: Skype, ICQ, Vkontakt (Russian version of Facebook), or Odnoklassniki (similar again to Facebook). I figured IF they are serious to find somebody, they will jump at this opportunity. So I started to chat with girls online thru Anastasia, then immediately asked if they have any of the above ways to chat with me AWAY from Anastasia? Most of the girls said NO, they prefer to stay on Anastasia's chat. What does that tell you? Keep in mind, I know for a fact that MAJORITY of those Ukrainian girls DO HAVE a social network account like Vkontakt, even if they don't own a computer. So for them to insist on using Anastasia's CHAT means only one thing to me. It's a money maker for them. They are NOT serious to get to know you outside of Anastasia's chat service! I mean, chat is free for them. They also get a percentage $$ cut from the agency, about 10 cents on every dollar you spend with them on chat, so it's in the girls' best interest to keep you chatting! Something for you to think about!

3. Poor Translation Services, Disinterested Ladies, Letter Not Written By Ladies Themselves but by Translators (Dutch1952, United States-complaintsboard.com)

Woman responded with information which had not been included in the letter I wrote to her. However, the information she referenced had been included in a letter to another person. Two paragraphs had been omitted in the letter to the first person but three items from those two paragraphs were referenced in her response.
This causes me to question the integrity of the translation service and/or the reliability that I am actually communicating with the woman I wrote.
Another woman responded that she did not have time to write long letters. Imagine, a Ukraine woman wanting to get married to an American but she doesn't have time to write long letters to get to know the man.

4. Marriage Fraud and Scammers (from TruthIsNowTold, United States, complaintsboard.com)

Elena Matsuk (a known scammer) was on Anastasiadate who claimed to be "sincere" but she was not sadly but "married" someone so that she could escape her country. She committed marriage fraud and has now been blacklisted on a governmental scale meaning that if is difficult for anyone from Europe or America to ever get this girl out of the country!

Never believe their "honesty": Elena Matsuk id: 1104556 (anastasiadate). She is referenced at the following links:

5. Prostitutes (zakmustaine from xomreviews.com)

Hi all,

After plenty of legal advice, i was unable to take anastasiwaeb to court because i never paid them money for letters and things, but i got suspicious with certain ladies on their site, so i hired a private detectives to work in Russia and Ukraine,

We found out 7 of the 10 were in fact prostitutes, not as their job descriptions stipulate on their profile, which in Europe and USA is a criminal offense it is false advertising. I found on internet a blog of a guy who dated for two years id 1080121 on anastasiaweb,

He found out after they were going to marry that she to was a prostitute, he is taking Irina Matyushkina from berdyansk to court for his money he spent, letters, holidays, presents etc,

I spoke to Alexandra on anastasiaweb by e-mail about this, she claimed this guy did not give her the information required to remove this women, well his lawyers in England sent my lawyers the e-mails he had from Alexandra, dated 17 Jan 2008,

She tells him not to take her to court, he will find good woman maybe on that site. When I confronted her on this to date I have not had a reply, I have informed her that her e-mails will be sent to this guy, and i hope that a lawsuit will persue, his lawyers are in discussion with my lawyers at present, and the possibilities look good,

Please people be careful things are not right with this agency, there is some things that do not seem right, as shown by Alexandra in her e-mail she knew that Irina Matyushkina was a prostitute then according to their scam policy why was she not removed,

All other ladies were given to anastasiweb about their way of life to date nothing has been done, i have reported them to the FBI for fraud.

Please note to gentlemen you now have to pay to see a photo of the lady you write to does this not tell you something. They are acting fraudulently.

Now here is the actual story that I managed to find written by the guy referenced here. He uses the older website name anastasiaweb.com. The site is the same even if they change their internet name! It is an old report from a few years back but it is still a valid one and has a lot of value in it and it speaks of the ongoing scam and fraud nature of anastasiadate.com

The site again is the same even if they change their internet name!

The story I managed to find it and here it is

Hi all,

Just want to write and share my experience with you, and really open your eyes to what dating sites are really like. I started using anastasiweb dating services back in 2005, I started corresponding with a beautiful woman from the Russian city of Voronezh,

We made arrangement to meet so i took a friend for support, when we arrived the woman i was supposed to meet DID NOT TURN UP! But another woman with a interpreter, and during my spell there with my friend we met women nearly every night,

The interpreter complained that we did not have pearly white teeth like those in Hollywood! So we put it down to bad experience.

When i returned i put whole episode behind me, and decided just to write to women who could speak English, and were from the Ukraine, it made traveling and communication much more simpler.

In may 2006 a girl, called, Irina Matyushkina, id 1080121, on anastasiaweb and to my knowledge is still on this site, started writing to me, our communication was good, letters were informative, but her personal life she was refusing to talk about, I put this down to maybe bad experience.

We finally met in Kiev in February 2007 where i spent 10 days with her. Firstly let me point out to be a true gentlemen i rented two apartments, but Irina decided she wanted to stay with me in my apartment, this was a tell tell sign for me, something was quite not right,

When we went out for a meal at top restaurant in Kiev, I politely asked have you had many sexual partners, her response was a stone cold look, like death itself, again I asked question, again to which there was no response, after ten minutes she said i will talk to you when we get back to the apartment.

When we arrived back at the apartment, she burst into tears and said her boyfriend forced her in sex, I did not pursue this matter at the time because I felt it was not appropriate, and I thought at least she was trying to be honest.

When i got back home i spoke to friends and family who were concerned as they felt she was not telling the truth, so in my correspondence I directly asked her personal questions in which she lied to me about in Kiev, her reply was I don't want to speak of my past.

In august 2007 i went out and stayed in her city in berdyansk, where she promised me she would stay with me and show me the area and her town, when I arrived I saw her for probably twelve hours in total in those ten days,

Funny thing was my plane was delayed so we missed our train, but surprise surprise a girl that only worked two nights a week, how could she afford £200 train tickets? When i was in berdyansk a beautiful girl came to my apartment and actually told me that Irina was a prostitute and to be careful, this now explains a lot to me,

When i came back home I badgered her about her past, she would break down in tears or put the phone down on me, then during September 2007 up to Jan 2008 she started bragging about having group sex, a man and woman from another city, having sex with soldiers, having sex with animals, and she asked me that when she came over she wanted a dog!

But the most disgusting of all she bragged about how she liked sperm, how she liked licking the anal area of a man, and toilet sex, this was now becoming to me very sick and disturbing, in a phone conversation I called her a prostitute. Surprise surprise no fight back from her.

On Jan 17 2007 i complained to anastasiaweb about this incident, Alexandra who was in charge of customer service responded and told me I had no right to ask of her past, so responded to this by telling Alexandra, I am going to take this girl to court, as I have been advised by our family solicitor this amounted to fraud(scam)

Also her profile is also deceiving, anastasawebs response was don't take her to court forget her she not good woman, maybe you may find good woman here on this site.

This point I just left it, a man in America then approached with my permission anastasiweb, his name was zak, about this he had a e-mail back from them condemning men for using private investigators,

Then he quoted my story to them (Alexandra) she refereed him to there policy, which when read actually says any misdemeanor by any of there clients will be investigated and the woman removed from site.

So he asked her about why investigation had not occurred with regards myself. Her response was he would not give them evidence to prove it, (where was there investigation?) which on the 19th of Jan 2008 evidence was offered but she told me not to take her to court this was done by e-mail,

Zak then informed her because of there lies he would pass me a copy of these e-mails, e also asked her two questions to date have still to be answered

1 Why was there no investigation,

2, As she knew what Irina Matyushkina was doing why was she not removed, again to date
There has been no reply,

Also let me add, can someone explain why someone whose name is Irina Matyushkina, why on her voice message in Ukraine and English she was known as miss cranberry?

In July 2008 i spoke to Irina on the phone, she was telling me how much missed me and loved me, she don't have sex now it is against her religion, yet i know she is still prostituting in Ukraine in different towns like Odessa and Sevastopol let me add know for the Russian soldiers and tourists, for legal reasons can not say much more.

But the point of the story is anastasiaweb knew what she was doing, hence why no investigation, they refused my proof by telling me not to take her to court, and she is still on that site why? They are putting the health and well being of people at risk Ukraine and Russia has the highest sexual disease rate, and the paying customer they seem more concerned about the women having enough on the site.

A few questions for you to ponder,

1 What was the purpose of Irina? My opinion was a visa so she could apply her trade here, numerous times she talked of prostitution, and even commented how much money English prostitutes make.

2, Why did not anastasiaweb investigate according to there policy?

3, Look at the internet and look at the complaints about this site, if they were not true why do they exist?

Please remember Irina Matyushkina id 1080121 if the website could not act as they describe in there policy what then are they playing at? Hopefully my story will help others avoid the same mistake and hopefully in time have proper and decent dating sites where woman have good morals,

There is so much more i could say about this but unfortunately time dictates, but i hope that you people out there will keep your eyes open, what anastasiaweb did is against the grain of modern society, a morally good society to me and with the response from anastasiaweb they have proven to me that they seem to promote prostitution and not the idea they try to convey, what happened to there policy that she told zak to read?

Anastasiadate.com Court Threats!

If Anastasiadate.com was free from fraud (also known as anastasiaweb.com and anastasia-international.com) then why threaten to take to court the owner of a reputable antiscam site named Saul Hudson who exposed their activities. This is what he says from antiscam.net

"Of course we are aware of Anastasia.web and have been for many years. They have threatened us with legal action on a number of occasions but, since going to court would involve their business practices being exposed it is one area they really want to stay well away from"

So when they say they are free from corruption and fraud you know they are lying! Saul Hudson told them to bring on their legal threat but they backed down because they know they would be exposed!

Finally here is what one review site says and I quote:

"Problems

The main problem with Anastasia's style of practice involves their "letters of introduction." Many people have reported being scammed due to this system. The risk is that a woman will write an introduction letter intended for a very broad and simple type of man, then that letter will be sent to many different men in hopes of persuading them to respond. If someone responds, AnastasiaDate.com makes money. If all of them respond, Anastasia Date makes even more money. Hence, the possibility of a scam."

"Conclusion... we highly recommend avoiding AnastasiaDate.com... their track record is hard to ignore"

YOU Anastasia date have been now Exposed for all the world to see for the scam that you really and truly are!

11-30-16 Update

My inside sources inform me that now this site is using video loops of ladies while AnastasiaDate lady is not using their profile, if you see a white background when talking to lady this is a tape loop, ask the lady to wave to you, throw a kiss or hold up her hand or to stand up if she ignores your instructions your not talking to the lady in the video, its a agency staff using her profile to generate money for the agency, if the backdrop looks like a ladies home then you maybe safe but my advice is to always confirm that you actually watching a real live lady by asking her to do something in real time to know she is there and your not watching a video tape loop of a lady. Remember this is a documented scam site if a lady wears the same clothes and has same white backdrop in video and you ask her to do something live real time while chatting with her and she ignores you its not a real lady its a tape loop of the lady and your chatting with agency staff so they can make more money of of ignorant lonely men looking for love, you have been warned...

6-8-16 update a email from this agency concerning fraud.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your email.

I can see that in your last genuine chat with the lady, she informed you that she planned on leaving the site and warned you that her local agency might take over her profile.

As you already know, it is completely against our site's policies for anyone other than the ladies themselves to operate their profile, which is why you have been returned the 7 credits for the last Live Chat that you had.

The agency has been heavily fined for their actions and were given a warning, but if such a thing should reoccur, we will have to cease doing business with this particular agency.

How the agency was able to do so in the first place, it is difficult to say. The lady may have given them her password, or they may have acquired it through other means.

If you do encounter such activity again in the future, we ask you to please let us know at once so that we can take similar steps to what we've done in this case.

Another except from agency fraud department you must read...

Secondly, I would like to kindly remind you that we our site is not a marriage agency or matchmaking site. We are a premium platform for communication, and provide services which allow members to get in touch with a variety of different ladies from Eastern Europe. While it is true that some of the relationships formed on this site do end in marriage, we cannot make this guarantee for every member who joins. Just as in real life, relationships take time to form and develop. We at Customer Support do our utmost to ensure that our services run properly so that your communication with ladies is not hindered in any way. However, in terms of whether a lady decides to marry or even move to your country, this is a decision which should be made by the lady.

Thirdly, in regards to the lady who confided in you, did she tell you she worked for a local agency which was in partnership with AnastasiaDate? Please be aware that there are many local agencies scattered across Eastern Europe, and only a small percentage is partnered with AnastasiaDate.

Let me assure you that our agency partners are strongly prohibited from giving any sort of compensation to the ladies for being registered on our site or communicating through it. We closely monitor for any inappropriate behaviour to ensure nobody is using our international dating platform to make a profit. As such we intend that every member using our services does so having a genuine and sincere interest in finding their match. You can be sure that, in the event we discover any inappropriate activity by any member, we will take the strictest measures in order to avoid reoccurring incidents.

5-23-16 Update

Today I saw my lady friend online, i wrote to her, now remember i dated her, met her in person in Ukraine, I have her contact information and we have dated for a year and have history, she told me last week the site was taking over her profile because she only chats with me and the agency does not make enough money off her, they will turn her profile over to a translator to use so they can cheat men and make money, I know this lady is on vacation now and is not online, I also know this lady told me as I wrote below she would no longer have access to her own profile, i have chatted with, met in person and dated the real lady in the profile, she speaks limited English, so i write to see what happens and someone writes me back, it must be agency staff or an agency translator since they write me back in perfect English, lol I can tell just in how they write its not the lady in the profile who I know very well, I mean its complete fraud, its here in black in white, I know the person writing me is not the lady in the profile, see my last update below.Its a complete scam site Guys see all my information below...

So here is another id number that is agency staff using a real ladies profile to cheat men on this site. If you chat with this lady you are being cheated its agency translators using this ladies profile to run up chat minutes, letters and photos for agency, YOU ARE NOT CHATTING WITH THE LADY IN THE PHOTO... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

An update just in case any of you men still think this site is real, I wrote in my original review about a young lady that i chatted with who I came to Ukraine to meet, she was real, sincere and a very sweet, good girl,

We dated and she told me she only chatted with me, she would email me when she came online, I would see her email and come to her to chat, after we chatted she would always sign off, She was never online unless she was online with me, recently she wrote me saying the agency told her since they were making no money on her profile they were taking control of it giving it to another lady to use so the agency could make money, listen carefully, this lady will have her profile, with her photos up on this site and yet this lady no longer has access to her own profile, the agency will have one of their staff use this ladies profile to chat with men, TO MAKE MONEY FOR THE AGENCY. This is fraud and proof positive what i shared in my original review is happening in almost every situation where a man chats with a lady who does not have video, even video means only you pay twice as much for chat, it does not mean the lady will ever meet you, really wants to find love, I assure you as my lady friend who works for the agency stated a man could spent 20 years looking for love on this site and never find it. The agency get 12 cents per minute of regular chat, money on every photos and letter, some agencies give prizes and cash to ladies who generates the most money for the agency. So men you have been warned. This agency is a total scam site, read my original post please before you spend another moment on this site... Good luck I hope you find a real lady for love but based on my experience its not going to happen on this site or Asian dates either. Also this site copies photos of models in Ukraine and posts profiles using ladies photos your never talking to the lady in the photo, they use these photos and profiles to attract men and have agency staff sit at agency computer and respond all day and night to men foolish enough to think this lady is real.

Valeriya
The agency said that my profile does not make them much money, since I only talk with you, so they will give my profile to another person

Robby
I told you its all about the money at agency not about helping ladies find love

Robby
They will use your profile to chat with me using your photos cheating men

Valeriya
Since I've known you for a long time, I'm telling you the truth, that the site for me to sit by someone else, so you're not caught

Robby
It will be an agency staff writing men using your profile.

MEN BEWARE OF ANASTASIA DATE - ORIGINAL POST

7/4/15

This information is for any men that are now using Anastasia Date or Asian Beauties and also any men foolish enough to consider doing so.

Most of the woman that are on this site are not serious about finding love, I have been told by many very reliable inside sources including the woman themselves, one source told me that you could spend 20 years searching for love on this site and never find it. I have chatted with, met in person and dated many ladies from this site.
If you do think you have found love already I suggest you beware its usually a lady just using you for a visa, to meet a network of lady and men friends in the Russian Ukrainian community here, a source of money or U.S. citizenship. I saw this first hand in my life personally in my marriage and also with many men who went to Ukraine and brought woman back on a Visa in the late 90s, I saw what was reality and what happened after years of marriage.

I do hope in your case I am wrong and you actually beat the system and found real love with a good, sincere lady, I guess miracles can happen and love can happen when two people meet even through this site.

My sources tell me they have seen people marry that met through this site but its a rare occasion and in most cases not love on the lady from Ukraine's side. If you have already found a lady I do hope your love and marriage lasts the test of time. I do know there are some good ladies in Ukraine but based on my experience I just do not think you will find many of them on this site.

I hope this information I share with you leaves no doubt about what you will get if you continue using this site.

I have to protect my sources they honored me with their trust and I highly value this. I thank them for sharing the truth with me at a risk to their livelihood. Everything I state in this review is my personal opinion based on my own experience as well as what was shared with me by insider sources, agency owners, translators and many ladies that have profiles on the Anastasia Date site.

I have been a VIP member of this site for a while now, I blindly trusted this site, I spent much time meeting ladies in chat trying to sort out the scammers in the hope I could find some quality ladies that were looking for a good man for love and marriage so I could fly and meet them in real life, I went to Ukraine and met many ladies, I only dated a few because it was very clear to me when I came face to face with these ladies most were not serious as a matter of fact most were outright scammers.

I found the level of fraud I have experienced amazing, blatant, consistent and it made me very angry, I am amazed that Anastasia Date and Asian Beauties can get away with what they are doing but without our support they cannot do so and its our choice as to the future of these sites.

I met ladies and it seems from how I was trusted and accepted, that I was liked by these ladies as well as their translators, since they confided in me once they got to know me, they shared truths with me, tried to warn me, tried to protect me, even a few gave me back the kickback money from our lunches and dinners we had at local restaurants to show me what they were saying to me was true and to establish credibility with me. They could have fooled me, many tried to do so but some others chose to be honest with me and told me I was wasting my time. I thank these people for doing so.

Ladies bought the most expensive items on the menu just to run the bill up as high as they could to get kickbacks. I felt grateful for this factual information but also felt so very foolish and even angry when this happened.

One friend who owns an agency told me when I arrived in Ukraine he was informed that another local agency who had ladies I chatted with had sent out the word to all the ladies in their agency that a rich American, me, was in town, the ladies should I even had staff at local restaurants I was in often eating in warn me, tell me I was being used, showed me bills where contact me, that I had money and they could date me and make good money, I was really angry when I heard this and that same day my apartment phone started ringing and ladies I never met started approaching me via my phone and also online wanting to meet me, I saw this happen with my own eyes and it set the tone for my visit to Ukraine.

Here is a small part of what I learned in my many years of traveling to Ukraine since 1998, being a VIP member of this site as well as owning a dating agency that helped men find wives and most important a ten year marriage to a very young, beautiful, deceptive and as it turned out, much to my surprise, a very mentally ill lady from Ukraine.

The local agencies have agency staff and agency translators using ladies profiles to write letters and chat with men, sitting either at home or in agency offices, If she is not on Video in most cases you are chatting with an agency staff member maybe even a man, so the lady whos photo is in the profile is not who in most cases a man is actually chatting with, as a matter of fact when you meet a lady for the first time in real life you think you chatted with her and also feel you know her, you think you have formed a bond with her, that she is sincere and interested in you, so you fly to Ukraine based on this bond, well when you meet her it could very well be the first time the lady is even aware you existed, since you dont speak Russian the agency translator who is the one who actually chatted with you all this time in chat tells the lady what to say during your meeting.

I saw this in many meetings I scheduled with ladies I thought I knew and who I thought also knew me from months of chat.

I had a male friend from Ukraine who I knew I could trust always sit next to me at the next table with his lady when I had a meeting at lunch and dinner, when I met ladies my friend would listen to what the lady and translator said to me, he would take notes, it was amazing the level of deception I experienced. Almost every meeting, it was all lies, fraud and deception.

I also had a car and driver and the driver listened to the ladies conversations and shared with me what he heard after my meetings, the ladies did not know he spoke English so they thought they could speak freely in the car, Any trust I had in this site and the ladies on it was soon gone since every meeting I saw and heard the fraud, the lies and the deception.

Many ladies join a local agency just to get the free professional photos and never actually are looking for a foreign man for love and marriage. The agencies need to find many beautiful woman who are real to make photos for and they place the ladies photos and profiles on the site, the translators also look for new talent since a beautiful lady could have many meetings which result in lots of money for the translator, I found that most of these ladies actually have boyfriends, girlfriends or husbands by googling the photos they send in letters and also on their profiles thus finding them on vk.com and other social media sites.

The agency has most of their data base of ladies profiles that are not being used by the real lady but are posted on the Anastasia site and many ladies are working several jobs to survive and dont have time to be online chatting all day and night so the agency uses their profiles and when a man comes to Ukraine to meet the lady on the profile, the lady meets the man and the agency, translator, lady and restaurant all make money.

One translator I met while meeting ladies introduced me to a lady who had just joined the site and her profile had not been posted yet, I soon realized she introduced me not to assist me as she claimed but she wanted me to be a practice meeting for this lady so she could teach her the ropes, the translator said and I quote this one is going to be a super star, meaning many men will want to meet her and the agency, the translator and the lady will make much money while men get the bill for lunch or dinner plus translation fees and not much else. So like an idiot I paid the translator fee, then dinner for both and all for the opportunity to watch as the lady was trained by translator on how to manipulate men and make money off them.

Also if you go to Ukraine and you have meetings never allow your translator, who you want to believe cares for you, who you rely on so much, to suggest woman to you, any woman she suggests is a friend who will sit with you, flirt with you, eat with you, drink with you just so the translator and also she can make more money and both get to eat and drink at a restaurant they could never afford unless they were with you. Trust me this is the case 99% of the time, they all work together to get as much of your time and money as possible. They will both be smiling at you all the time but its not them smiling with you its them smiling at you, you are a sucker to them to use and play with, sorry but its true, go see for yourself but keep your eyes wide open since its so easy to be deceived by these ladies.

Also be aware as you chat with ladies many of them know each other well and they discuss you among themselves, they share what you say in chat, many of them will copy the text and show each other what you discussed.

So an agency has many beautiful ladies profiles that are not being used by the real lady in the profile so they use them to make money chatting, sending letters and photos to men, an agency has staff all day and night working shifts chatting with men using ladies profiles, then when its time for the man to meet the lady in real life, many times right before the meeting after the man has flown to Ukraine, this lady is ill, her mother, father or grandfather or grandmother is in hospital, her father lost his job, she has had a car accident, called away on business or they just delete the ladies profile but of course they have other ladies that want to meet you and since you are already there and now they have you and your wallet right where they want it.

Then other ladies you chat with will meet you, they will show interest in you, they will order the most expensive items on the menu to run up lunch and dinner bills as high as they can since they get kickbacks from local restaurants for bringing foreign men to the restaurant. They will act like they adore you, hope for gifts, want to go shopping, to eat in the best restaurants, they will say whatever they feel you want to hear, its all a game to them, they act like they like you, its not real, it is a complete fraud.

Almost every lady I chatted with when she knew I was coming to Ukraine wanted to assist me in finding an apartment, such kindness, no way, they get a percentage of what you pay and usually you pay a higher price due to them assisting you.

I had a lady I chatted with for months before my trip to Ukraine and after we met in real life she actually liked me allot, she said I was not like other men she had met before, many men come to Ukraine thinking the ladies are desperate, living in a third world country, that they can be bought and that they need to be saved, offered a better life by us, most men show them what they own rather than who they are as men but in reality the ladies deeply resent men like this, a few days after our meeting I accidently ran into this lady I had the meeting with while she was walking on the street and she was with her friend who spoke English, she wanted me to know why she was so awkward when she met me, I think she saw I was a good person and she felt guilty, she then proceeded to explain to me she had never chatted with me for all those months online, not once was she who I chatted with for months, the agency called her the day before our meeting and told her she had a meeting with me, the translator met her and filled her in on me and who I was, local agencies make 12 cents a minute on all chats, they also make money on all letters and photos sent and received, all agency staff and ladies on site are taught how to go slow to get the most chat minutes possible, Photos sent and received all letters agency gets a cut so girls want to send men many photos since they also get some money, I had one girl I wrote one sentence in chat and she fired off three photos right way.

Remember some very beautiful girls are super stars for the agency, models mostly and also for the translator lucky enough to work with them they are the most popular and they meet many men and make the most money for themselves, the agency and translator. Its a business, please know right from many ladies own mouths I have been told very few are looking for love but for sure they want your money, they are paid dates and thats all they are.

Since the war broke out men stopped coming to Ukraine and agencies started having less revenue they have become desperate so they created ways to generate money by cheating men online but I think its been this way long before the war even. They have figured out every possible way to get to your money without giving anything in return.

Most Ukraine restaurants, bars, night clubs, karaoke bars will give girls or translators who bring foreign men to their locations kickbacks on all bills, check your bill, I caught many locations cheating me watch and see right before you are about to leave after you have paid you bill the lady and translator always must go to the restroom, this is when they receive their money. I saw this with my own eyes many times and had several ladies tell me to watch them while they went to the rest room and then when we got outside they gave me the kick back they got from restaurant.

Most girls men chat with will ask the men not to go through the agency when its time to come to Ukraine to schedule the meetings, this way you dont have to pay agency meeting fee or fill out agency paperwork, Ive had ladies give me their translators phone numbers and emails in chat and ask me to call them to schedule meetings, they make it seem like they are saving us money since agency charges for first date but its so they can break the rules, charge 20.00 US for translation and split the fee with translator rather than agency. They say the agency provides the translator but you never know if this is true or not. This also enables them to use men without the local agency being involved, but its not like the local agency wants to protect you they just want their cut. I think going through the agency is best in the case of fraud it gives you recourse but based on what Ive seen local agencies or Anastasia just do not care if we get scammed.

I have seen so much fraud on this site it astounds me. I report it and nothing ever happens, they know whats going on and their lack of concern for their clients welfare shows just how corrupt this company has become, maybe they have no real control over the many local agencies that provide ladies to fuel the Anastasia site but other sites find scammers and refund your money without you even knowing the lady was a scammer but this site you report a lady give them proof and no one responds to you, amazing arrogance.

I have seen ladies I know, met and dated using several different profiles with different names and ages.

Always google a ladies photos you may find them on VK.com, Instagram or face book or the Russian social media sites and get a glimpse into their real life, amazing what you can find with a little effort like seeing them with their boyfriend, girlfriend, husband and children.

If you see a lady on the site same time every day she is working her shift so to speak. Watch for set schedules, same time every day or night, look at when they are online, how often they are online, how long they are online, watch and you will see what I mean.
If a lady starts talking dirty or starts with she loves you in chat she is not real, trust me, walk away right then.

I met one young lady who was new to the site and she would come online only for me, when we were done chatting she would go offline, this gave me some trust in her, when I met her she turned out to be a very good girl, now she writes me email when she is online so I come to speak with her but out of the many ladies I met and I met many, ladies, she was the only one like this.

Be aware Ive been told by a very reliable source that almost all of the time you chat with a lady who is not using video its not the lady in the profile but rather an agency staff member using the ladies profile to chat with you.

I also know this to be 100 % true from my own personal experience.

Here are just a few examples of what I experienced in Ukraine others are listed in at end with ladies ID numbers with my remarks.

I made friends with one of the ladies I met on a date, she contacted me after our first meeting and wanted to see me again, she told me after we met the first time with a translator that she speaks English and I will not have to pay the 20.00 dollars an hour for the translator for this next meeting, many ladies speak English but want to have the protection of the translator for the first few meetings which I understand and also agree with. I was curious so I met with her.

We got along very well and became good friends. She later became involved with an agency, she had my cell number and one day I am chatting with a lady on Anastasia who called out to me and she lives in Kiev, my friend, this other lady I am now friends with lives in another city in Ukraine, she texts me and tells me she is watching my chat, she tells me I am actually chatting with a lady whom works for the agency who is sitting right next to her, I question her, I am curious to see if she is telling me the truth since its hard to know whats real with any lady from Ukraine, she proceeds to text me on my cell phone exactly what I am writing as I write it in chat from my office computer including the ladies exact response, I knew what she said was true, she tells me she knows the real lady on the profile and that she has a boyfriend and she has never used her profile.
Then she texts me this, (most men think 70 % of the ladies on this site are scammers she told me its more like 100 %), as a friend she told me I will never find what I am looking for on this site. She told me and I quote her ( so if you want to find a woman seriously, leave this site forever, look for someone using your friends and on this site you will spend 20 years looking and will get no result) She told me I am a good person that she feels no guilt cheating most foreign men since they are pigs, stupid and have no respect for ladies in Ukraine, she said I was different and she liked and respected me cause she said I am honest and a good man so she wanted to save me from being used and cheated by the ladies, local agencies and this site.

I had another lady I chatted with and when I arrived in Ukraine I met with her and dated her, I even met her mother since she was so sure I was the man for her, this lady said she was in love with me, I played along to see where it would go since you never know what is true and what is a lie with these girls, by the way this happened with meeting the mother several times with several ladies I dated and in all cases looking back now I see it was pure fraud to lure me into a feeling of security, it was a complete scam, she chatted with me every day and night before and after I left Ukraine, she was going to meet me either in another country or when I returned to Ukraine, I was the only one for her, like we all hear from the ladies on this site, then she writes me a week before I plan to come to Ukraine since she has me and I am coming to Ukraine she is deleting her profile from the site, she says we can communicate through email, text thru phones which we have done for months now already and she hopes after our next meeting I will also leave this site, I think I may have something real here so it seems, never heard from her again, no email, she was never online or on her phone ever again, nothing. She was gone, disappeared, now Ive been dating her and chatting with her for about six months now. Never did she say anything but she adored me, I was her man and we were a perfect match. She was very convincing

So at first I worried about her then after some time I realize I was played once again, it was all lies, all an illusion, months after this happened I an online filing a fraud report and I see this girls photo on a profile pop up on my screen, she is online, only now she is not Olga 22 like she was when we met and dated her, now she is now Diana 18 with new photos, I open a chat with her and confront her and she makes believe she is not Olga, now remember I dated her, I have at least 50 photos of her she sent me via my email, I know her real name, I met her mother, I have her cell number, her email, I was involved with her for about six months and she says what makes you think I am Olga, lol, amazing arrogance, then she finally admits its her and talks with me and we discuss her being a liar and fraud, I send this proof to Anastasia and I still see this lady online every night same time, amazing they can get away with this.

I have documented all my experiences of fraud, I have so many files but I have so far only reported a few to the site and I am waiting to see how Anastasia deals with what I have submitted so far.

This site is not about helping men find love and quality ladies, Its all about making big money, its big business, its set up legally so they can benefit without giving us any legal recourse, there is no way a man will ever win the way this system is set up, I know I tried and I even owned and ran my own marriage agency. Please go and read their terms you agree to when you sign up for the site carefully, most men never do this.

Maybe a man will win if he finds a lady on this site who is new or even better not on this site or if she is on the site but she has not yet been corrupted yet by the local agency or translator, the agency makes money off a lady, the lady is the product they market, to be on this site a lady must come to agency and be on video so many hours or their profiles will be deleted from the site, think about it, the last thing the agency wants is to lose a lady to a man in marriage, so all odds are against us and the system is set up to in any way possible to fleece foreign men out of as much time in chat, letters, photos, In my in box I have 850 unopened letters from ladies do the math if I opened all these letters and this is not counting any cost of opening up the photos they send with letters, its an amazing business its almost like an addiction for men, we cannot stop logging on to this site even when we see all the danger signs and know its all a scam.

I must admit I was foolish at first, I had blind faith and trust in this site, I allowed ladies to send letters and photos before I traveled to Ukraine and was informed and became aware of all these scams but knowing all I know now, seeing what I have seen, the sources who shared the truth with me, now I know without any doubt this site is a complete waste of time and money.

MEN STAY AWAY FROM ASIAN BEAUTIES, I travel the world I know for a fact this entire site is a complete scam. Its banned in most Asian countries and I also have seen with my own eyes the level of fraud here on this site is even worse than Anastasia Date. Anastasia you will at least meet ladies on Asian beauties very seldom will you do more than chat, send or receive letters and photos, I have spent time and saw firsthand the level of fraud, Its Asia, lol, I have thousands of unopened letters, some ladies have sent me letters every day even after I chatted with them and told them I was not interested, its a complete scam site.

I have had so many bad experiences with Anastasia Date I don't even know where to begin.

I have felt foolish, used, abused, lied to, manipulated, angry, and resentful and my level of trust has been impacted by so many lies and deceptions from these very sick but very beautiful ladies from Ukraine. I guess ignorance is bliss but I am happy I finally saw the light and I thank the many people who chose to confide in me rather than use me.
All I wanted when I started this process was a fair shot at meeting a quality lady for love and marriage.

As my dear friend said I could spent 20 years searching for love on this site and never find it.

I know now this is true.

I just wasted my time and so much of my hard earned money and for a while I found myself thinking if I keep trying I will win, I will find a good lady but I soon realized this is just like the gambler in Las Vegas who stays at the tables thinking next time he will win.
In 1998 I owned a marriage agency in Ukraine but things were very different in Ukraine then, I helped men find ladies for love and marriage. I was unaware how drastically things had changed in Ukraine and in the dating agency business, I remember Anastasia when it was considered a respectable agency before chat, after my experience I want to sue them, it amazes me men like us that have been cheated dont band together, form a group and go after them and shut them down but its become a billion dollar industry, its now a very big business.

After going to Ukraine three times and being on this site for a while now, meeting so many ladies in Ukraine face to face, dating some and getting to know some very well, I have had agency owners, many ladies I dated and even honest translators share with me the real truth about Anastasia, the ladies and the local agencies.

I even became a minor investor in a new start up marriage agency in Ukraine with the understanding that my Ukrainian partners share with me all the secrets and scams, they did so and I was shocked at what they showed me and told me but I had to know the truth. I saw as an investor the entire agency operation and in disgust, anger and resentment, I walked away from my investment when I saw what fraud they were going to commit to make a profit and compete in the dating agency market.

The girls are real, very beautiful, I became friends with many of the ladies I met, friends yes, but love never, Yes they created profiles with photos but so many, more than you can even imagine never use these profiles, all I met, after they trusted and confided in me, told me they really do not want to leave Ukraine, they are not looking for a foreign man to love, most just want a steady income, an easy source of money, a better life, an expensive lunch or dinner, gifts, rent paid and to find an easily manipulated, hopefully nice and handsome older foreign man to take care of them, to tell them how beautiful they are, to make them feel worthy, but be aware you do all this for them but you will get nothing back from them except shallow words, lies, deception, games rather than real love and true care you hope to find, we are a source of easy income for them, we buy them expensive food, gifts, pay their taxi home, most pocket the money we give them for the taxi and take a bus home, many have husbands, most have boyfriends or even girlfriends, yes there are so many beautiful gay ladies are on this site as professional daters who dont even want to be with a man but prefer ladies, yes they are very beautiful but most are not sincere in finding love, most are just bait to lure men into chat, photos and letters, to get men to fly to Ukraine so local agencies, restaurants, translators and ladies can make extra money due the economy in Ukraine, they want a better life and we provide this to them by being on this site and coming to meet them thinking we will find love.

We spend in one dinner as much or even more than what a lady will pay a month to rent a flat.

Oh and be aware that many will tell you that they are virgins, most are not but this way they dont have to have sex with you while you spend months spending money on them trying to win them.

A man will never really truly know if you are even talking to the girl in the profile or rather an agency staff member.

Even video chat may show you the lady is real but does that show you she is being honest, or truly cares, or wants to leave Ukraine, or is seeking a foreign man or she will ever meet you in real life.

Video just means you pay twice as much for chat, its also a result of so many review like this one and the impact on the site, they adapted, they doubled the cost for chat per minute using video to fool us again, giving us a false sense of security, now we see the lady but this does not change the reality as I saw it in real life, now you see the girl, so what, so once you see the lady is real I suggest you turn video off and just chat with her if your foolish enough to proceed after reading this post.

I am not saying you may not get lucky, miracles do happen, only a few I met I felt were honest and very good girls, even the ones who confided in me and told me the truth, they all said they were not looking for love nor did they want to leave Ukraine, they just are young and beautiful, want to travel, they see no harm meeting men to make money, they get paid to go on dates, sit with men, flirt with men, smile at men, they eat good food and have fun, so based on my experience all the odds are against you having real success, ever finding love and marriage.

I have listed just a few of the many and I mean many of the Anastasia date ID numbers I have of the ladies I know to be scammers for men to beware of.

Anyone who wants tips on how to protect yourself contact me, I will share with you what I know.

I wish for those men looking for love you find it but please just beware and listen to what men who have gone before you share with you, check the scam sites, google Anastasia date scams, Site Jabber also, The positive reviews are placed on most sites by Anastasia staff by the way, here is a part of a reference from the site - site jabber, (Read the dates on most of the positive reviews about Anastasia Date website most of them have been written on same date or within a 3 day time span. So it makes sense that these positive reviews have been planted over 3 days unless allot of guys met there so called lover and perfect match all in the same month) Asian Beauties scams, be aware before you fall into the trap, I wish I had seen all this information before I joined this site, foolish me, I should have known if its too good to be true its probably not true.

In conclusion my thoughts:

If we dont use or support this site, if we dont fly to Ukraine with these illusions of meeting our young beautiful Slavic beauty, this entire scam is over, we fuel it all by supporting this site, Life in Ukraine is very hard, rains have destroyed crops and raised prices on food items in this past week some are now three times more expensive, the harder life is there the easier for a young lady to justify using a wealthy foreign man, we are such easy targets for a young, beautiful, deceptive girl, she bats her eyes, wears her sexy clothes, looks amazing, says anything she thinks we want to hear, she says she cares, we are the best, she is only for us and we fall right into the trap, we want to believe never thinking its all lies and deception until she is gone or the truth is finally revealed after so much time and money invested, hope dies and we feel foolish, angry, hurt and resentful but please know without us and our money they have nothing and to be honest this is the only way to stop this fraud, this cancer. Anastasia Date is a mega company making a huge amount of money every minute of every day and we allow it to happen. We are the client, without us they have nothing.

If every man stopped using this site for a few months they would have no revenue and this is how you affect change, get attention from these people who make money off the hopes of men searching for love and happiness, stand up and say no more, force them to perform, to serve our needs, to get true value and an honest chance at meeting a sincere lady rather than allow them to use and abuse us, otherwise we allow ourselves to be such foolish men and so easily taken advantage of in our quest for love.
I know I just went through it and saw it so clearly, it was a total waste of my time and money.

Here are a few of the ladies I have chatted with, met and dated with remarks in the hope I can save you time, money and feeling as foolish and angry as I have felt through this experience.

Anna - (ID: 1771023) Dated her, a translator introduced me to her as a good girl I should meet, after two dates she was in love with me, I was her man, she wanted to continue chat with me even though she had my email and cell number, she wanted to chat, send photos to make money for herself and agency so I knew she was not sincere. She recently wrote me a letter and when out of curiosity I read it, the letter was written like she had never met me, she dated me, she loved me, she knew me, she had my email and my cell number, yet the letter was a first time letter not a letter to someone she met and knew, so it was probably written by the agency not by Anna.

Ilona - (ID: 1695725) A model and actress in Kiev, I imagine she is paid by agency to chat with men on a daily basis, she is very beautiful, she works a shift chatting sending photos, I went to Kiev to meet her, the translator called me scheduled the meeting, I was amazed, thought wow she is real but then the day of the meeting she had an emergency surgery, lol so she too could have been an agency translator using this ladies profile, I will never know.

Olesya - (ID: 1696698) this one is very beautiful has been chatting online for a year now same time every day, she admits to me she has never met a foreign man, she spend 8-10 hours a day online, I wonder why?

Diana - (ID: 1789425) used to be Olga id number 1764664 now Diana new name, new age, complete fraud and scammer.

Olga - (ID: 1764664) same as Diana scammer I dated her even met her mother, complete fraud, liar and cheat.

Marija - (ID: 1776714) I suspect this was an agency translator writing as girl since she ran up chat time sent many photos then deleted her profile right before we planned to meet just disappeared from the site.

Olga - (ID: 1122060) Professional paid chatter or agency translator posing as lady since she chats, says she likes a man, sends photos, then three times scheduled meetings in Odessa and she never showed up for meetings.

Tatyana - (ID: 1744032) Another professional chatter, I even saw her on video a few times wasted months with her I was her man, the only man for her but when it came time to meet she made some excuse twice, she accidentley sent a letter to me written to another man, I felt so foolish but if you are on this Anastasia Date site get ready to be lied to, used, scammed and abused in every way shape and form by the site, the local agencies and the girls.

Alexandra - (ID: 1736641) I met her after she scheduled and never showed up for four meetings, she is a complete fraud and scammer.

Ruslana - (ID: 1723976) I chatted with this lady for a month she sent letters and photos even exchanged emails, seemed so sweet and sincere, I went to Ukraine and she missed several meetings, said she got confused on the date and time of our meeting, then she tells me I will never be successful unless I learn Russian and wants to help me out cause she cares for me, so she introduces me to her friend who can teach me Russian, a translator, then I contact the translator and I realized I was never talking to the lady in profile but always this agency translator who was trying to give me Russian lessons online for a fee, they are so deceptive and creative in their lies.
Juliya - (ID: 1672809) I really thought this one was the real deal, met her twice, she could be real, maybe she just did not find me to her liking so I am not sure about this one at all, I cannot say for sure she is a scammer but my gut tells me she is, she got kickbacks from restaurants this I know for sure.

Anna - (ID: 1676991) Very beautiful girl, a model chatted with me for a long while but when it came time to meet me well she just was not available, online every day same time like a shift, she wants chat, letters, photos yes, but meeting no way, lol

Kristina - (ID: 1666454) Complete scammer works a shift online for extra money, she is crazy, will chat with a man, talk sexy talk but never will you ever meet her.

Kristina - (ID: 1742421) complete scammer she is on video now to make more money for agency.

Alina - (ID: 1740478) chatted with her for months even had phone call with her, every day and night she wanted me needed me, loved me, when it came time to meet she deleted her profile, she had my email and I had hers, she in one night without any explanation just disappeared, I imagine this was another agency staff using ladies profile. This was thousands of dollars and months of my time wasted in chat time, photos and phone call all for nothing.

This is just a small sample of what Ive seen and experienced on this site, so much more to come later as I go through my many files and well documented fraud I've experienced on this site.

For those of who wonder whether this organisation is only after your hard-earned cash. Here is some eye opening published content that has been placed on Russian Ukrainian social media by their agency representatives and translated here via google, the content explains the recruitment 'terms' for ladies on anastasiadate.com

Location: Kharkiv, Ukraine

And here is another translation.

Russian Brides offers mutually beneficial cooperation
Girls from Lugansk and Donetsk, as well as other regions.

We offer a nice extra and / or basic earnings!
The essence of the work lies in companionship with foreigners.

Unlike competing agencies that collaborate with several dating sites,
Our partner sites only one - www.svadba.com (AnastasiaDate).

Naturally, the first and the main functions of this website is to find a husband.
This makes sense on the basis of the name "marriage agency."

But, generally, we are looking only women.
The rest come for:
- Enhance knowledge of the English language,
- Make friends from other countries,
- Participation in beauty contests and promotions
- Free professional photo shoots
- And, of course, good to make extra money!

In order to develop our agency we involve girls over 18 years and offer quite good bonuses.
During active communication on the site you get 0.12 cents per 1 minute communication with the chamber, and 0.06 cents for 1 minute of communication without a camera.

What does the camera?
A man will see you in a small window (approximately 4 to 5 cm)
As proof that there really is you. The man can not hear you.
You can communicate simultaneously with several men at the same time,
For each dialogue you are gaining bonuses separately.

The schedule is flexible, ie, You decide when and how long to stay or leave the chat.

Our agency is the lead partner sites in Lugansk, Ukraine and the second,
So we activists - all of our girls have the opportunity to participate in contests and share of the site.
It should also be noted that all the girls of our agencies receive loyalty card "Anastasia".

With the news site can be found here: http://www.svadba.com/news/
On the map of loyalty and promotions / discounts across Ukraine: http://www.svadba.com/club

In short, anyone who has paid by card or paypal online to chat or use video socially from 2012 onwards will have lost an awful lot of money, full stop. It is entirely your choice whether to continue supporting an organization like this for purely entertainment value or dumping them completely.

Clearly, the one-timers posting 5-star reviews are fakes or extremely desperate men spending horrendous amounts of money with nothing more in return than fake letters from fake women. Furthermore, just like most other scam sites, AnastasiaDate deal with "suppliers" to answer your mail and chat and most times, without the knowledge of the woman in the picture. In other words, you could very well be chatting with a man or granny thinking that you are with the fake hottie from the picture. All those companies partially admit to it and some like victoriahearts, FULLY admit to it on their own website (see my review in here). They do so to prevent being sued for scamming you. In other words, they are robbing you LEGALLY! Furthermore, the pictures of the women are from the supplier as well as mentioned in their own terms. You will find the exact same pictures on all other sites.

To prove my point (already is when they admit it on their sites), open an account but do not pay for anything! Place a picture of a monkey and write the worst description of yourself. You will still get a lot of letters from models. Also, why is it that the pictures of the women are the same for years? Better yet, why is it that if you desire to meet one of them they always break the connection? I know what I am talking about as I went through it.

Let's check out anastasiadate.com has to say to protect itself from lawsuits and from being arrested for fraud...

"Terms and Conditions:
Suppliers. To provide the Service, AnastasiaDate purchases services from various agencies (collectively, "Suppliers"). The Suppliers are independent contractors and are not agents, or employees of AnastasiaDate. AnastasiaDate is not responsible for the willful or negligent acts and/or omissions of any Supplier or any of its respective
Employees, agents, servants or representatives including, without limitation, their failure to deliver Services, or partial or inadequate delivery of Services. According to terms of agreement with its Suppliers, AnastasiaDate is prohibited from rendering the Suppliers' contact information. Services provided by the Suppliers include but are not limited to the following: Suppliers provide full, accurate and legitimate information required for the registration of referred Members at AnastasiaDate prior to their registration according to the terms of Agreement. Suppliers provide additional services in accordance to the terms of their agreement with AnastasiaDate. Suppliers provide full, correct and quality translation of all correspondence between Members. Any additional services requested by AnastasiaDate Members, which fall into the Suppliers' scope of activity, but not defined by AnastasiaDate terms of Agreement with Supplier, including but not limited to, arrangement of a meeting with referred Members of the Supplier, provision of additional information on referred Members, or any other personal requests of Members, may be processed by Supplier, but are not automatically granted. Provision of any services not listed in this Article 12 is prohibited. AnastasiaDate is not in any way responsible for the quality of any additional services provided by the Suppliers. The Website and the Service are provided "as is" and AnastasiaDate expressly disclaims
Any warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. AnastasiaDate cannot guarantee and does not promise any specific results from use of the Website and/or the Service. Receipt or exchange of funds or any other means of payment is prohibited on the Website."

Proof enough? A supplier takes care of everything for AnastasiaDate from supplying pictures of women, answering your letters, chat and AnastasiaDate couldn't care less if you are being 100% scammed as long as they get their share of the money.

They are all the same type of crooks and they all deal with the same supplier which, I'm sure, is created by them so they can protect themselves from lawsuits and criminal charges.

Be smart and stay away from those crooks!

I am on #Anastasiadate since a year and I spend money on it, chatting with several girls, to make sure I am not wrong i chose girls who fit with me, from appearance and everything, mostly lower than me, AnastasiaDate chat with me for long time on site and i plan to go to kiev to meet, i ask each of them one by one, and read

Excuses to avoid Meet when i was on Kiev:

Avoid to open chat!, they have work!, they are sick!, stay off on chat
In case they meet, they just take you to restaurant and never show up again.

- You can find some of them on vk.com

- Mostly look different than the site, too much make up! (Ugly)

- Beautiful Girls on the site mostly are based on work and compensation, and don't really look for relationship,

- They are some innocent girls who look for relationship but very a few and they check site once a month, and don't open chat to everyone

- Fake review by site operators everywhere, just read the way they wrote text it is totally fake review

- And if you see success stories are all with two ugly ones who are old, in case you see two beautiful ones with success story don't doubt it is build up by company,

Logic: Normal Beautiful Girl don't need to come on this site to find someone, she meet many on her real life, and if she has an account you see her with a thousands of follower, if you saw a beautiful one on this site, it should be based on work, same as you see on prostitution sites, exception exist but ignore it.

Company Operation: #Anastasiadate operating on #ukraine and in #ukraine there no such rules like USA and west Europe, making fake things are so easy, with money you can do everything, so don't get wrong with Anastasia anti-scam policy or and other guarantees or services

#Anastasia has a good money and pay a lot for advertisement to fraud people, this company should be investigated for fraud services

#Aanstasiadate provide tours for old men, but they can't find a proper women because human is human everywhere, so don't be wrong with the location, every beautiful woman want to be with a man similar to herself, a man should have a good money and be handsome and match the women criteria,

#ukraine is not bad as you think, beautiful cities, people with good income, specially kiev, you see a lot of expensive cars and houses, so don't get wrong assumption about economic differences, you buy a pocket of milk in usa 6 dollar and you can buy the same there with 60 cent, so they have a good life, not so needy as you think.

Lot of beautiful girls are there, girls on #anastasiadate are nothing mostly frustrated, ugly, prostitutes and not from good families, because they do prostitution on this site, go by person there to see beauties, normal girls don't need to come on this prostitution sites, they have their own boys, imagine how it is possible that a beautiful girl on age 19-21 or more be single while they are lot of handsome boys looking for her, #Ukrianian woman don't need boy from another country, they have their own handsome boys, you can find single ones too, but they want someone with same qualification,

- Plz for the Godsake don't waste your money, I already have gone all this way up to the end!

- If you really need someone, search it in your place, if you couldn't find there, you probably not able to find somewhere else,

You can find good girls on other sites too, like #ukrainedate.com - #fdating.com - #elenasmodel.com and best one is #vk.com because vk is a site that #eastern #european people use it, and their profile is not based on makeup or lies, or making money, you can try adding girls there, if someone show interest it means she want you if not so she is not interested, true and simple,

So don't get wrong if beautiful women chat with you on #anastasiadate she is not interested on your face, she want your money! Why they don't talk on other social services? It is simple because they don't' get paid:)

If you still look for adventure go by person to #kiev, and stay there for a while, go to the parks, bars, night clubs, libraries, restaurants, walk in the city and talk to people, maybe you can find someone, good thing is that most ukrainian women can speak english and you are ok, open talk and be social :)

The ladies I've met on Anastasia Date are real from my experience but AnastasiaDate are not seeking relationships. I personally met them in their home cities. Upon my return, I noticed a startling observation:

Even though, I got their emails and we promised to communicate more outside of Anastasia Date due to the costly pay per minute live chats and pay per letter correspondence, the ladies still opted to communicate on this expensive service.

There were moments when my emails to the ladies were never replied and when I logged into Anastasia Date, there were the ladies on live chat. I was forced therefore, to communicate on live chat.

Months passed and as you would have guessed my expense grew exponentially. I wanted a real life relationship and this is what I conveyed to them but this was somehow ignored and disregarded.

I told them to please help me out here if they cared about me as they claimed. I mean this is the 21st century and who does not know about skype and other forms of communication. But all the ladies seem to prefer to communicate only on Anastasia date. That's what I was told by them.

So my conclusion is this: These ladies are there to get you suckered into spending your hard-earned monies on Anastasia pay per minute live chats and pay per letter correspondence. If you are considering Anastasia Date please run as far as you possibly can! Simply avoid at all costs!

It costed me literally thousands upon thousands. Don't not throw away your money nor should you invest time on anyone who from the very beginning does NOT care about you. People are losing their jobs as the world economic outlook does NOT look promising while Anastasia Date is still making their millions each and every month with the help of the ladies who are there to make you spend your monies on their employer, Anastasia Date.

I urge you to be wise and not to fall trap. Hopefully soon, someday Anastasia date will be out of business. You cannot continue scamming the public and expect to thrive. In addition, making a living or an income from scamming people is quite pathetic.

Regards

PS: One lady who is currently registered with Anastasia Scam is Daria (Member ID: 1701750). Beware of this scammer. I want the public to be aware of this predator. She is working alongside with other Ukrainian scammers to create an illusion that you are in a real relationship with her. But the harsh reality is that she is getting paid when you spend credits to live chat with "her", write "her" letters, send "her" Valentine's gifts, Birthday presents. If she communicates outside of Anastasia Scam like email correspondence, be aware that she will request you to send her money because of economic situations back in Ukraine and she will cough up a story that she sees you as her man and she expects you to be the provider in this fake relationship and when you visit her in Ukraine, she will prove to you what a darling sweetheart angel she is.

When you arrive, expect her to take you to the most expensive restaurants and clubs in her home city. You will pay for her and her friend as her friend understands English and besides, Daria is "shy". Then she and her friend will take you shopping and have you buy her gifts and clothing. My advice: Stay away!

I write this review totally for the safety of 'real' men.
I have used the service, wouldn't allow myself to be sucked in for much money, call me pragmatic or realistic, money is 'not' my issue... being a 'sucker' is just not me.
I 'met' a nice woman: 31, divorced, 2 children, Ukrainian, etc. (actually, I met another woman, too, an 18 year old girl, but being nearly 50, she could not possibly relate to me or life in general... I mean who can at that age? But, "Aliona," if she exists, was quite nice.)
'She,' "Olga" runs a beauty/message shop in Kiev, only by a fancier name. I located "Olga" on vk.com (Russo-Slavic world equivalent of Facebook). She was not real. I have a real friend, Alicia (18, a very beautiful blonde, vivacious girl and a platonic friend. One whom I did meet on Facebook). I assisted her through her English exams. She is a real Ukrainian woman: nice, considerate... just a normal girl. She has nearly 300 vk friends, and she's not the most outgoing girl... just real and friendly.
"Olga" the beautician has 28 vk 'friends,' (and last posted in early January--it's now April) now she is supposed to have her own shop (hence a need for all available publicity). I emailed her both through "Anastasia International" and vk.com. She 'replied' through "Anastasia" whether I contacted her by it or vk.com... remember, AnastasiaDate are paid.
'She' did get REAL when I brought up Ukrainian law enforcement. Being former law enforcement myself, I was able to find the proper 'local' law enforcement agency, a branch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, called the MVS (I am not going to comment on this police force out of professional courtesy, but they ARE the official national police force of the Ukraine).
"Olga" disappeared from vk.com, just after our last 'contact,' she didn't want to talk on vk.com of course--it's free. I spoke with a 'manager' at "Anastasiadate.com" and he said that contact off of their site was completely at the discretion of the parties involved...'they' didn't prohibit or discourage it.
Anastasia International was set up by a Ukrainian couple, and until they sold the business a few years ago, to a "private investor," (who now has a website which pulls in over 100 million US dollars per year, and is growing) seems to have been a totally legit site, doing 'everything' it claimed: creating friendships/relationships between Western men and 'mainly' Ukrainian women (real women... Ukrainian women are truly more considerate and family oriented, in general, than Western women, it's simply cultural).
An historical side bar, the Crimea (eastern Ukraine) was 'taken over' by pro-Russian forces over a year ago... Ukrainian women DO want to move to the West... It's called reality and personal survival... a few things, which as an historian, I greatly understand and respect.
Final analysis, the site NOW is mainly a scam to separate 'nice' men from their money, through the agency (literally, the local term for offices in the Ukraine, where these 'women' carry out their 'contacts'). These 'women' communicate with mainly Western men, for pay.
I have personally reported them to INTERPOL (the international police organization, of which the Ukraine is a member, hence, has a fiduciary responsibility to investigate upon their behalf). Will any 'investigation' take place? Let's be real, this is about money... the Ukraine is under immense pressure from the Russian Federation--who want to gobble up the former "breadbasket of the Soviet Union," as the Ukraine has been referred to as.
ALL people in the Ukraine want to survive and try to live... don't we ALL?
I understand what many Ukrainian women are doing here... it's financial survival at its lowest levels, it's a form of exploitation--like rape and prostitution--of vulnerable people, mainly women. I feel sorrow and pity for these poor people.
This review is for the protection of 'nice' guys, but the women (and those associated with them, in this business) are part of an ugly piece of ongoing history... the Russian Federation's incursion into the Ukraine (until separated by Khrushchev, a Ukrainian--a full member of Soviet Russia)... Ukrainians have been historically called "Little Russians," with due respect.
Well, there's my lesson in history. My advice, don't do business with Anastasia International... you have a one in an hundred, probably more like one in a thousand chance of meeting a nice woman. Sorry for the length of this review, but I was not going to give you some off-handed remarks... if I gave you 'my' review, it was going to be based completely on facts, and not my personal opinions. You deserve that... you put up with this long review:)
Good luck and God bless!
Robert

The site is a total scam! Stay away if you value your emotional/financial health. You will waste your money and more importantly your time by using (AnastasiaDate(AD). The vast majority of the women on AD are here to make money off the men who are trying to find a mate. AD, the agencies and the majority of women on the site are there only to get you to spend money on the site which AnastasiaDate share. The women on AD are not there to find a mate from outside Ukraine. The majority are already married or have steady boyfriends. They are only on this site to make money $$$. They will not go off site to give you a phone number or email address because AD is where she works and earns her money. Do not use the chat or video chat as it is a racket where the object is to get you to spend as much money as possible. As others have stated, it appears that the videos are pre-taped and as for the chat you are communicating with a bot or worse a male employee of the agency where she works out of). If you do decide to visit Ukraine, pick a city apart from where she lives and make sure that you make all arrangements for your lodging on your own. Do not rely on her. High potential for fraud with the rates. I would also arrange for an independent translator, if you do not speak Russian/Ukrainian fluently. Your lady may have a friend who conveniently is available to help you for an elevated price. Just use your common sense, Can you communicate with your lady by yourself? If not, how do you think that your relationship will succeed? Be realistic and just avoid the scam. If you do go visit her where she lives, you will be led on a daily tour of all of the nice/expensive restaurants in the city. You will also be paying for the interpreter as well as her meals and taxi rides. Others have stated that there appears to be a partnership between the woman and her interpreter as to the division of fees paid. In hindsight; entirely possible. To be blunt: It is just a huge scam. If you must go, look at it as an opportunity for a vacation/adventure and keep your options open. I would insist that she pay for her trip to where you decide to meet first. Many will say that they do not have the money and want you to pay for their trip first than they disappear with your money. DO NOT SEND HER MONEY! A test to see if her intentions are serious. Try to arrange it so that you meet in a more beautiful/cultural part of Ukraine, i. E. Lviv, Kviv, even Odessa. That way you can at least enjoy the cultural/scenic aspects of the country. The people of Ukraine are very hospitable once you get to know them and I have respect for the country and culture, but the women who inhabit AD are there only to scam you. Stay away from Mariupol/Zhdanov as it is the most depressing Dantean place I have ever visited. As one who has direct experience in U.S. Immigration law, another important thing to consider even if you believe that you have found the girl of your dreams is that the women who do come over on a K-1 Fiancee visa (which is a fairly long and expensive process), a majority will either; (1) wait the two years to shed the conditional Legally Admitted for Permanent Residency (LAPR) status and than divorce their beloved after having obtained their permanent LAPR status, or (2) and this is increasing rapidly; where she will allege mistreatment under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and obtain her LAPR status without having to wait the two years. Meanwhile you, her petitioner, are losing on every front (legal, financial and emotional). Anyone who has been to family court here in the States will understand that the man is always presumed guilty of whatever offense is alleged and I can tell you that ERO will not put her into Removal proceedings based on what your story is. Meanwhile, the newly legal woman will immediately petition for her Ukrainian/Russian boyfriend/husband to enter legally and well... you can figure out the rest. Just saying, caveat emptor. The 5 star reviews are (IMO) all AD plants that are fraudulent. If you do decide to spend/waste your money on AD, first make sure to get her full name, DOB and true city of residence as soon as possible and then check out Odnoklassniki.ru, now called OK.ru. This site is a Russian Facebook clone where you can find out lots of interesting things about your girl. Be forewarned about a woman named Valentina Odushko/Radchenko #1607500 from Mariupol. Scammer! The site has a setting like Facebook where relationship status is listed. The one above is married, but is available (for a price) on this scam site. Do your due diligence! You can also check vk.ru which is similar. I wish somebody had told me about this before I started down this trail of woe. Stay away! You have been warned.

The Anstasiadatedate.com is just a legal means of scamming you out of money. First, why would any 20 or 30 something "date" a guy over 50? It certainly is not about love, but your dollars going in thier pockets. The agency takes most of it and gives the girl 10%. Gee guys, it's another job for the girls. Going over to Ukraine will be a big waste of time and money. Remember, the main language is Russian and English not widely spoken.
I highly suggest, skip the site, the trip and keep the dollars in yorr wallet. Much better than being heart broken and broke dollar wise. I did make the trip to Odessa. Made my own hotel resversations and was not expecting much. After the second date, just cancelled any further meetings. Ber in mind, you will foot the bill for the interpretor the girl requests and pay for her meals too. The cost is $20 an hour. Those girls must turn all the money over to the agency and then be paid. AnastasiaDate will NOT say how much. I mentioned something like $2 an hour to them, and fom the look in their eyes, you knew the truth.
Well as far as thegirl you came to see, suddenly she has to work and only has 4 hours today and next day for you. Will want to know if you brought your tablet/notebook computer with you. Just say NO. That way they will feel you are isolated. Oh, and buy in the states the adapter plug for 110v to 220v. Remember the difference in voltage. Also ensure you get the plug for Ukraine. Having communication means, you will have to find places and do things yourself.
At least that is what I did. As I expected not much and was willing to pull the plug quickly with the girl. Also, remember, chnging your fight times will be difficult in Odessa. There is just one flight a day out to Vienna and its in the afternoon. Ass most flights are booked to capacity. So why waste doing nothing and stay in hotel. Go sight seeing and be adventurous in seeking out food.
As we all know, the site is expensive. With a lack of speed in their chat, the credits go real fast. If you can NOT afford spending money, don't! Time costs money now. Hard to get that to register in your mind. One just does not see it. Having been on the site for a year and spent thousands, it becomes a form of enjoyment and entainment. It's addicting in all ways. As far as I did talk with scammers, most definitly. You will hear what you want to hear. Hard to turn down good things when one does not hear them all the time.
Fortunely, I could afford the cost of being on site and the trp to Odessa. But at some point, reality will kick in. It's buyer be aware for sure. Since returning from Odessa, i have cancelled my acount and have no plans of going bak on site. It's a game where you will lose from the start. The promses are hollow and disppointments grow over time. Oh, there are honest girls there, but very hard to sort them from the scammers. And it's pay as you go game.
Believe what you want. But the fact remains, the site exsits to get your money and think you are dating a girl. You are just chatting on line now. As with most indidviduals, one will do as they please. Looking back and being bored, it is so easy to get in the habit of being on line with someone. Remember, it's a 7 to 10 hour time difference from where you are in the states to Ukraine.
The ID number for one scammer is 1742621. Very good at attention to detail. Will get your routine down and willing to go off site. But by then, she has you hooked. And if one can, check back on site when on line with her, and you will most likely see her logged on. And she say internet slow. So she is working you and some one else at the same time. If you ask her about, will claim the agency uses the girl's ID numbers. All the warning signs are there, but gets so wrapped up, you do just dont pay attention.
So be careful. Too easy to into the "game" and spend & spend. That's my opinion based on my experience.

I am now more than a year active on that site and spend i think more than 4000 euro's on it. Earlier i reported here my experiences. Appart from trustworthyness the price of their services is outrages and though AnastasiaDate keep saying it is because of their premium services, it stays outrages and not defendable. Plain chatting for instance for 20 minutes cost 10 euro's. And i can tell you that 20 minutes is nothing, it flies. And than you have to take into account that often the respons time is very high because of the connection and because of the fact that the lady has to translate first. Often minutes go by just to try to explain what you mean to say. And often the respons is short, just single words.
Nothing justifies the costs. It is just criminal practice. The conversation is also censored. Every "suspect" word is erasen by dots. Also mailadresses or other contactinformation you try to share. It really is. When you want to exchange your adress you have to send the girl a gift, ofcourse bought from the site and ofcourse also at outrages prices. I have done with four of the girls in the year i am active. And believe me it is dissapointing because all of them barely communicate by it because they all just want to be chatting at the site.

The last gift i sent months ago, to a girl i also knew for months, Svetlana (ID: 1738509). And this because she specifically asked for it. The perfume i send cost about 300 euro and with it you get a picture of her while it is delivered. Now i can tell you she looked quite different without the makeup, etc. But ok. After that i just got a mail with 3 lines of thanks. After that i never got any mailmessage anymore. And this despite i kept chatting with her and she everytime promised me to write. I did ask this just to get trust in her and the possibility to exchange photo's etc. Now she liked me very much she told, calling me darling, did not want to lose me, etc. Every time she had excuses. First was that she had a busy job and had no time and did not could read and write English. Why she than wanted to exchange mailadresses i asked. She had forgotten that she told. After a months still no letter. She promised again and again to try but she had problem in the family. Than she had problems at work. And some weeks ago she told me she could not because her old mailadress was blocked so she had not my mailadress anymore. I asked the site to send it again to her and they did. But still she by now did not write. Because she could not write in English she now said. Told her earlier she could have done in Russian. But by now i broke the contact and told her she was the most unreliable girl on the site. You have to know that in her profile tekst she states she is very reliable.

This experience is more or less examplary for the girls i have met on the site. I have no direct evidence of them getting paid, but there are lots of indirect evidence.

I have engaged a detective bureau AllRussians to just investigate in databases one girl with whome i have many contacts and chatted extensively. They can also do extensive investigation but that costs a lot of money and i only got a basic check in which they look in government databases and check for social profiles. The girl in question seems to be the one that is on the profilefoto's and her profile is like she tells they are. Only she has lied about the nationality of her son in law (she tells he is English while he is from Dagestan) and i do not know why she would do it. After a year of chatting she still refuses to tell me her own maiden name and adress and so on. Why this is she can not give me a plausible reason. Ofcourse i have them already from the detective agency, but it is all about the principle. Though i do want to meet her in real and this is what she also stresses evertime.

I have more and more of such examples and it can not be the case that accidentaly i have just met such woman. They are examplary for the whole lot i think. Complaining at the site has absolutly no effect. Everytime they have disclaimers and refuse to take responsibility. It would be logic and correct if man and woman where equal parties and the site was just a platform for meeting. But it is not and they exploit the girls because that is their business model to make money out of contacts.

It is for a deetective bureau dificult to investigate if money is paid, because they can not tell me that they can investigate this. But look what the bureau AllRussians told me in their first message to me about anastasiadate, without me asking for it.:

Our service is completely discreet and confidential.
The investigated person is never contacted.

PS. I don't recommend to use the site Anastasiadate. They are too expensive and unreliable.

To This by far is the safest site for guy to find someone..., With all the honesty I can portray in this world my... You never know until you try, I was somewhat skeptical about this site having read..., I have met some very beautiful women on this site, and everyone else

I just returned from a 3 week visit to Ukraine, it is a Great place to visit, relax, and explore. I spent the May Holidays in Odessa with friends, and traveled to Kharkov, and Kiev as well. The local currency is the UAH, Today it is worth half the value from past years, So for americans, it is a great exchange rate at better than 21 to one. The UAH for locals is terrible, because Ukraine citizen only earn half of what AnastasiaDate need during this poor economy.

I would encourage anyone who uses these Dating sites to stop spending your hard earned money buying Credits, sending letters, and answering Chat requests. If you really want to meet a Beautiful Ukraine woman, go to Ukraine. Airfare purchased in advance can cost as little as $850 - $950.00 round trip, Hotels and apartments average about $24 - $55.00 USD per day, and expenses are cheap. The average cab ride should only be about $120 UAH which is only $6.00 USD to most destinations, just a few more UAH from the airport. When you are in Kiev just Dial ( 310) from a local (+380) Ukraine cell phone, and a Taxi service will call you right back, give them ( or have someone close by give the taxi service your current pick up location and destination address). The Taxi service will text you the Drivers Vehicle type, make and color, the license plate, and sometimes the drivers name and number, but most important, they will also text you the exact Cab fare for the ride. Taxi cabs at the airport will charge you as much as humanly possible, usually 2 to 4 times more, taxis are not metered or regulated. If you are in a different city, just ask a local for the Taxi service phone number, Do Not Ask Hotels, concierge or restaurants for a Taxi, because they will all refer you to a Taxi that charges and pays commissions.

In Ukraine, everyone will charge you (the tourist) more for everything, it is a way of life. Everything is commission based, especially Hotels and restaurants, so dont expect a friendly smile and helpful assist to be cheaper.

Back to my main point, Not All Dating sites are a scam, they are just a portal to Millions of scammers who become opportunists. I have used AnastasiaDate.com and I have attended 2 amazing Socials. They do not offer socials anymore because of the Russian conflict there. I learned that the Letters, Credits and Chat are the biggest waste of money! The tour was expensive, but it was a great first hand learning experience, maybe the Best Vacation I have ever experienced. My second visit to Ukraine was 10 times cheaper because I booked everything myself, and I only paid AnastasiaDate for the Social mixer that I attended. In a Nutshell, the socials were at Nightclubs, or in a Park/ Spa setting and the ratio was roughly 7 women to every guy. The numbers were Great, the women were out for a good time, and open to talk ( not Chat for credits).

Attending a Social is 100 times better than sitting at your computer keyboard!

Ukraine women come from many different local cities, Oblast, and suburbs to attend these socials, it is rather amazing. AnastasiaDate provides FREE interpreters during the 5-6 hour mixers, the Interpreters are usually young College Students or Agency Interpreters. During the Socials, AnastasiaDate provides Great resources to protect its paying clients, after the Socials, it is more every man for themselves, and every interpreter for herself.

If there is just one lesson learned here, it is this find your self just one Trustworthy, Honest interpreter that you know that you can trust. During the Socials these interpreters are bound by Agency Rules, but after the mixer they can openly and Honestly tell you the truth behind the partner Agencies ( there are hundreds of local agencies). Anastasia has no control or oversight over all the many agencies across Russia and Ukraine. If the interpreter is Honest with you, you will quickly learn some painful truths about the Dating Business in Ukraine.

A good interpreter is worth her weight in Gold, she will not only interpret conversations for you, but she will steer you clear of Gold Diggers, (remember you dont speak Ukraine or Russian). A good interpreter will protect your wallet, never allow any Cab Driver or Restaurant to over charge you a single penny, they will never ask you for gifts, or money ( other than the negotiated hourly rate - usually between $300-$400 UAH - $15-$20.00 per hour). A Good interpreter will have your safety and best interest at hand, and also be a great tourist Guide. Most important of all, A good interpreter will never abbreviate your words or meanings to rush a conversation, and will always tell you what is being said about you both directly and indirectly from all directions.

I have made some good friends in Ukraine, they always want to handle my apartment arrangements, and drive me around if they have time. I know that I can leave luggage or Documents safely with them, and they value the friendship and communication.

Everyone in Ukraine will tell you that thousands of Ladies are serious about finding a Husband or boyfriend, but these are not the ladies that you are corresponding with. The Ladies on the site are real, the professional Photo Shopped images are an effective hook. In General, maybe half the ladies are serious in their search, but maybe 80% are also serious about making extra money. Agencies advertise ALL the time (job interviews) for ladies to come in, have their pictures taken, post profiles, and make extra money Chatting with foreign member. Again, Ladies get paid a percentage or a commission, sometimes a salary to log onto the web sites and attract attention in the form of Letters, Chat requests, and Gifts.

There are many single mothers in Ukraine who have been abandoned by their husband ( seeking younger girlfriends) or boyfriends, these ladies are forced to move back home with mom and dad. There are many older Ukraine women who are tired of being alone, and have decided to pack up their life and move away with their future Husband. There are many other free sites for meeting Foreign women, AnastasiaDate is just a Better one. LISTEN TO A LOCAL Lady ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p103WzTMMEM)

ASK your self this question why would any young lady (20 -28) want to leave behind her Friends, family, relatives, and her way of life for someone that she has never met in real life? Many Ukraine women live a comfortable life, it may not be a rich life, but it is a good simple life. Many younger Ukraine women will honestly tell you Why would I leave my friends and family behind when I can just make this Free and Easy money from Foreign men who are happy to take me out for Dinners, buy me gifts, and give me money? A few years ago I spoke to a lady who laughed and said that she never has to worry about money, because foreign men flow into Odessa like an ocean wave. I was in Odessa in 2011 and you could see American and Foreign men everywhere, the restaurants were full of 3-way Dates, but that is not the case in 2015. The internet opens the door to exploration of Dating sites to the Mass Millions Take my advise, Save your money.

Stop paying AnastasiaDate and other sites for communication that you can find in other sites for free. Try Mamba or VK. Use social Media, try Reverse Image by Google to see if you can make contact using a different doorway. I get tired of hearing all the different excuses from many ladies Many ladies make excuses for everything if they are not serious to meet many times the excuses start to appear after you have bought your plane ticket or after you have arrived in Ukraine. Sometimes the ladies have no intention of every meeting.

A lady who is always on Chat, is a scammer, she is making her living by inviting you to chat with her. A lady who works a job cannot be on Chat 4-8 hours a day. WAKE UP this is a red flag! A letter that just simply repeats your last letter is another red Flag, and a letter that has no real content is just a waste of your money and time.

If a lady is at an Agency, her computer is sometimes recording her key strokes, so she must follow all the Agency rules when it comes down to exchanging contact info, but a Lady in her own home can send and receive phone numbers and other contact info. The site has a way of blocking some specific info like email addresses and other recognizable tags. Ladies sign an Agency agreement, and are told not to send and receive contact info, but I have received phone numbers and sent my personal local phone numbers with great success. My last trip, I arranged 3 meetings with in 10 minutes without sending Letters, My number was forwarded to her interpreter, and the interpreter called me to set up the meeting.

I still have credits on AnastasiaDate from a previous purchase, but I always try to limit my conversations to 5 minutes or less and use the credits when I am in Ukraine. If the lady is serious to meet, then it will happen, if she is just earning a living, she will hesitate and never meet with you. I try to cut through ( I cut and paste conversations) all the BS in 5 minutes or less. If you do arrange a meeting, Never go Alone, Always take your own interpreter with you She will save you from wasting your time and money. I have learned from many meetings that if she is too young, she is just going to try to scam you, plain and simple, it is just a way of life for this sort of opportunity.

Check out youtube for yourself - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p103WzTMMEM Ladies from Ukraine are just like ladies from anywhere else, just remember what the ladies in your area are like, the big difference is the Slavic ethnicity and strong family traditions.

If you like fantasy this is the place. In a matter of 2 hours I was able to find 56 profiles that were manufactured by the agency or their affiliates. The text of 2 profiles were identical except for two words. The only difference were the pictures and the summary information such as height, weight, etc. In the other profiles the paragraphs from 2 or more other profiles were combined to create the "new" profile. The bottom line on profiles is simply most are manufactured by the affiliates.

Security is a joke. The agency staff have access to the ladies' account. At anytime agency personnel can use a lady's account to chat or send letters. In fact you can receive up to 10 "letters of introduction" from ladies each day. These are copies of letters the ladies have authored for another man. AnastasiaDate change the name and send it to you. The lady has no idea you have received the letter unless you reply to her.

Next comes the video chat deception. The feed is supposed to be live. This is not always true. In one live feed, at 20 minutes past midnight in the Ukraine, had full sunshine visible in the window behind the woman. I have had video suddenly die because the recording ended.

I tried the phone option to one lady. I received confirmation, but at the appointed time the lady was not there. After several excuses and resetting the time I was supposedly connected to the lady. It only took a few questions to tell that it was an imposter. She could not tell me her brother's name. The imposter then started speaking Russian and the moderator explained the lady could not continue the call. It took weeks, but my credits were refunded, but again the bottom lines is that these people will defraud you if you don't catch them.

On two occasions I made travel plans to go to the Ukraine. The lady was excited, offered to pick me up at the airport, find an apartment I could rent, etc. In both cases the lady and her profile disappeared. No goodbye letter, just gone. Her profile erased from the system.

Now for regular chat. They will always take one credit and try for 2 if you are not fast enough to kill the chat window. Here is how it goes. You received a chat request. You decide to respond, after some time, but always less than a minute, you will get a emoticon supposedly from the lady or maybe just a simple hello. These do not come from the lady they are computer generated to keep the chat session alive in order to take credits from you while the lady comes to the computer, if she ever shows up. I allowed a chat to go 7 minutes with not one word from the lady. You are charged by the minute regardless of the lady says nothing. Next if you enter you response and then end the chat. You may then get a complaint from the lady asking why you end the chat. If you continue the chat and stay on longer, say a couple of minutes, you will have no reply from the lady. As soon as you leave the chat you will get message something like "where dud you go?" or "why did you leave?". The bottom line is they rip your credits off by keeping you in the chat. I have also had artificial intelligence chats; no lady at all just simulated conversation with the Anastasia computers. The AI breaks if you ask something like "who invaded England in 1066" On another occasion the chat was coming faster than I could read it and it became nonsense; strings of emoticons and gibberish sentences. Another ting to watch, if you have multiple tabs of windows open to the site you must quickly kill the chat popup window in each tab or the site will continue to bill you for the chat.

How about online ladies. Track some of ones that are online after 10 p.m. You will find that many of these ladies are online 24 hours a day for several days in a row. Then ask yourself, do teachers, accountants, stylists, and any woman with a responsible job going to be online after midnight when they have to work the next day?

If you want to use this site as entertainment, and pay dearly for the fantasy, then this is your choice. If you are seriously looking for a relationship you are on mission impossible with this site. There are some legitimate ladies here, but the site is designed to steer you to the fake profiles. But why use this site with so much social media available? It is not hard to find east European ladies on Facebook. I found that if a lady is truly who she says she is, she can even find you on Facebook.

UPDATE: 3/27/16

Okay. I got some updates as it's pretty funny.

I took one of the pictures from the lady I chatted for a long time and did a Google Image search and found her profile on VK. (Russian social site). I created a profile matching my AnastasiaDate profile and added her as a friend and messaged her. Next day she read my message and replied saying how she's surprised on how I found her here and wanted to know how I did it. She said she prefers chatting half n'half on here and on the dating site. I said to her that I shut down my account on the dating site (not possible anyways) as I'm serious about her and I thought we could continue chatting on VK and finding her already shows how serious I am that I had to go through a lot. Fair enough she accepted it. I wanted to see how far she goes.

Since I used PayPal, it was easy to go on PayPal and revoke the recurring charges that I didn't authorize for $9.99 monthly fee. I went ahead and removed my profile pictures, updated my name to Castro from Havana, Cuba. So now I'm a 91 year old man with three grown children to have their own children. I had 18 credits left and I decided to spend it all but with some style. (I'm not being cheap here after all as I just wanna use my all my credits).

I decided to chat with the same girl I chatted with on VK but with a day gap to get my profile updated in their system. I started getting eMails in relation to Castro and than I knew my profile was updated. I logged online and I saw her. She didn't recognize me but she said she's been waiting for someone like me to come into her life. I'm like. Really? A 91 year old man with 3 kids to hook up with a 29 year old 'model'? It shows that they're not serious at all. At the end of the day it's just your wallet they're after. I went back to VK today and we chatted for a bit. She 'hinted' that she needs money to hire a tutor and learn some English. I ignored her and said if she really wants to learn, she can go and download some English material off the Internet and learn them. I left and left the conversation as it is. She's not interested or serious. She has her own life in Ukraine and she's not bothered to come and join you.

Next girl: I did the same as above and I got her to get on Skype. She gets so defensive if I tell her that I think 'some' women gets paid to be on that site. I didn't mention her but I said 'some'. She goes off at me saying I think it's her. I asked her why she gets so defensive? And then long story comes in about how some man was suppose to come from the UK to meet her and never did and now she can't trust any men. And only those men who're on this site can be serious! HA! She avoided my question. She than said I was better chatting with her on the site! I told her what's the difference? Her English was good as she was a reporter as she claims. Fast forward today. She said she's going to see her family 3 hours away and spend time with them for the whole weekend and she won't be able to get on Skype. I always wonder if she goes to work as she's always on the site chatting. She said she won't be on Skype as she won't have internet connection since she'll be on the farm!. (I'm already Castro here by the way on that site). I logged online today and went to her profile page and I see her as 'Online' with video capability. Yep. Sure. Skype shows she's off. I get a message later on saying that she wants to connect with me. Connect with a 91 year old man with three grown children to have their own children? The same girl tells me on Skype that she prefers someone at my age group and never married and no kids. She even said to me on Skype as to why I think all women here wants to leave their home country? I wasn't surprised after all AnastasiaDate get good money from the dating agency to pay their bills and internet connection and so forth.

SCAM! These girls gets paid for you chatting with them. Their interpreter gets paid too. Those guys writing fake reviews get paid too. Not a question about me being a 'cheapskate' or anything. I've joined some free dating site already (two days back) and I'm already chatting with 4 of them on Skype and WhatsApp combined. 2 of them already began using two-way video calls and internet phone calls with me. All free. I've had only one who wanted money for some live webcam shows but I didn't give in. You're gonna get that everywhere.

----------------------------------
----------------------------------

So I've started not too long ago in search of a woman. Yep, I landed on this site. Wow, nicely photoshopped women here (I've have worked on models before so I know what to look for). This site - AnastasiaDate is definitely a scam. Forget the videos. They're all in for business. I've spoken to one of them and I asked her if she could wave at me or signal a kiss but instead she looked down and typed in some excuse as to why she can't. Really? So I attached my email address to a picture and sent a attachment to a different girl. I told her that my details are on that picture and let me know. Next thing you know she suddenly had an emergency and had to leave. Never came back. I've had one where she holds up a vibrator and tells me what she's gonna do with it. I said I wasn't interested. Just trying to waste your time with a slow response as well to keep the minutes going. They know when you're looking at their profile and they'll prowl at you.

Finally, look at all of the latest reviews that are rated 5 stars. Notice the date stamp on it. How come all these guys decided to write reviews the same time or one day apart. That shows that they have either hired someone to write fake reviews or they're writing themselves. I'm a business owner and I see this happen at Yelp too talking to others at a conference.

Save your money and do what other say - travel there. I've been to Europe and the women are intrigued to hear that you're not from there and naturally strike up a conversation. I'm keeping in touch with 2 already. If you go through AnastasiaDate, the translator will rip you off on expensive hiked up restaurants, hotels, and taxis just to take a share of your money. Do an AirBnb and stay with beautiful women for a start and save there.

Alright, remember guys, we're looking out for each other here so there is no gain from me telling you this.

Gents, I have been on this site for over a year now.

I also have been to Ukraine and date some the girls that I found on Anastasia. I am not saying that all are real, and aren't "robots" or even men chatting on the site, but those that I met were real and the same as presented on the site. Some I saw before on camera. Just be careful to chat with girls that don't have camera! They, yes can be somebody else!

Well, just sharing my experience. I date some there. I have exchanged e-mails with some. Two I am still in contact from time to time on e-mail (and surprisingly even on VK)! If the girls are nice and interested, AnastasiaDate will communicate with you in anyway outside the expensive Anastasia.com, but few would do it: 98% will communicate just through Anastasia and I "wonder" why!?

One of them, that I dated on 2 full weekends, after we exchanged few e-mails on my return, just stopped communicating with me outside the site. She just do unless through Anastasia, and surprisingly, without camera!? I gave to her a tablet exactly because of that and still today she "doesn't have camera"? "poor internet connection", "Anastasia has a better translation"!? She is also on VK, so why she doesn't talk to me there, but just through the site?

This is a bloody expensive site! Unless you find a nice girl, the girls there are to take your money, have free meals, free champagne, free gifts and that's it!

What I suggest to do: find on Anastasia and then go to VK. Most of them are on VK. I haven't found all, but many. See if they correspond with you over there (or Skype, e-mail, whatever) as much they would through the site. See how they react. Are they looking for you, "love", or money? They say that they could be in trouble because they can just communicate through the site!?!? How Anastasia staff would know if you are communicating with them on VK? IF you are chatting with them on Anastasia, ask them if they would communicate with you outside the site. See how they react.

Other thing: is forbidden to exchange personal info (such as e-mails), but not "friend's" emails. One of them gave to me her friend's e-mail and we were put in contact! I was looking for accommodation in Odessa and her friend hires holiday apartments there and we were in contact, legally, outside Anastasia site!

Since I came back from Odessa, September last year, I haven't spent one single coin on this site anymore!

People could find their wives/girlfriends/partners there, which I respect, but these are "one in a million".

The bottom line is: the girls that aren't there for money and interested in you they will find a way to communicate with you (and respect you and your money)! The girls that are there because of your money they will find all excuses to make you stick you to this site!

Stay away from this site.

Without a doubt, the site has loads of profiles with photos of very beautiful women. Unfortunately, whether you read messages, send replies, chat or even view attached photos & videos, this site charges you for pretty much *everything*, and these 'beautiful women' (assuming they're real) use every trick in the book to lure you into reading one more message, writing one more reply, chatting for one more minute and viewing one more photo or video... and all that keeps the AnastasiaDate.com cash register ringing at an alarming rate.

I currently live in Kiev, Ukraine, and I only contacted girls who speak English and live in the exact same city. So lining up a date on this site should have been at least as easy as any of the free sites I've used to find dates in the same place, right? Unfortunately, it wasn't. With the goal of spending as little as possible, simply to verify that this site would lead to at least one real-life date, I spent over $200 USD in just 5 days, received replies from over 40 girls, and ended up with nothing but more invitations to keep emailing and chatting, longer and longer, adding more and more $100+ charges to my credit card.

Additionally, the profiles and messages I saw seemed VERY fake to me, and having used online dating services for years, I can spot a fake a mile away. And the girls almost always write back within 24 hours. Does that sound normal for an online dating site to you? It sure doesn't to me, but I'm sure it helps keep that cash register ringing. When you bring all this up with one of the very friendly customer service people, they'll happily send you a link to their 'anti-scam policy,' which AnastasiaDate seem to think should convince us that we're not being scammed. But the fact is, if someone can live in Kiev, speak Russian, and not set up a single date with a girl who lives in the SAME CITY after hearing back from 40+ girls and spending $200+, when free or super-cheap sites like Badoo, OkCupid and VK work perfectly well, it's safe to say that AnastasiaDate falls far, far short of delivering what it promises.

Quick reference to other categories: service is prompt and friendly but useless, as they refused to refund even my unused credit balance. Does that deserve 1 star or 2? I gave it 2, just to be generous. The interface is slow and a bit clunky, but it does the job (i. E. shows you photos of beautiful women and takes lots your money) well enough.

After my other review I received many messages about the girls I met, so I decided to write this one, I hope it helps.
Below is a list of some girls I met. Only a couple of them I did not meet in person, but AnastasiaDate had my personal information, and we agreed to meet, then they arranged many excuses, but kept trying to chat, always saying things like I LOVE YOU, I THINK OF YOU ALL THE TIME, YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE, etc. In fact all the girls listed below wrote like that and some sent very spicy messages.
The ones I met in person in Ukraine were very clear about what they wanted: money and presents. A couple would exchange sex for money, some wanted to travel (maldives or dubai), none of them were really nice persons for a relationship.
Bottom line, maybe you can meet them and they really fall in love with you, and you get married, but just take care, because they are not always nice to everybody. The girls that I met in person in Ukraine that did not want a relationship with me but behaved like normal girls are not in the list. I consider normal to give small presents, pay for dinners, taxi, translators when necessary, pay for everything in a regular date. The girls listed asked for money for a sick relative, for rent, wanted me to buy a cellphone, etc.
Two of the girls, while we were having dinner together in Ukraine, appeared on line on chat at anasatasiadate, I sent a message from my cell phone and they answered! Very awkward, because someone other than the girls were on chat answering for them, and they could not deny it.
Here goes the list:

********************************************************************************...⇄ />
I am not saying these are bad girls, maybe they need the money and their economic situation make them do these things, but just be careful when spending money with them.
I made 6 trips to ukraine, not only to meet girls from anastasiadate, it is a very cheap place to ski, enjoy restaurants and clubs. I am now fluently in russian, what helps a lot to hear what the girls say to the translator( I always hide the fact that I can understand russian in the first meeting). A few tips:
-choose the restaurant yourself, the girl will take you to an expensive restaurant to get a kickback. You can have a first class dinner in ukraine for 40 dollars (3 persons, including translator, and wine).
-taxi: after the meeting the girl will ask you for taxi money, as high as 50 dollars. Just use these apps to call a taxi:
такси бонд in odessa (you have to search with russian name in app store(android and IOS) but it has english option on the app

Uklon (in english) in Kiev

With these apps you put the address and it gives you the price. For example from kiev airport to city center only 10 dollars...

-dont chat or exchange letters with the girls long before you go to ukraine, it is a waste of money. Just a week before traveling chat with them to arrange a meeting. It is very easy to exchange phone number on chat, here just one example(anastasia date team will block them all if I write here) just be creative:
I have 2 brothers, 5 sisters, 7 sons
Go on like this with dogs cats or whatever, just not all in the same message, one at a time, usually the girl will tell you "wow what a large family", then you tell her it is your phone number. If she says she can't read, that she is getting "..." she is lying, move to the next girl, this one don't want to meet.
-most girls will agree to meet you, because they will make money from translator fees and restaurant bills, they are trying to survive, just be smart to limit your expenses and decide if the girl is worth your time and money. After all 40 dollars for dinner, 40 dollars for translator(20/hour) is not very expensive if you enjoy the time with the girl... And maybe 10 minutes on chat to arrange the meeting(usually it takes 5 to 8 minutes on chat to arrange a date, just go straight for it, say that you want to meet, the specific day and time, like " I want to meet you tomorrow, 21/11/2015 at 3 pm, in front of the restaurant X)
-Chances are you will meet 20 girls and you will not get married. Because most of the girls don't want to leave their country, their friends, their family... Would you? Life in ukraine is not as bad as they make you believe, they go out, dance, have fun... OK they don't have money, but that's why they are talking to us, remember that! They dream about marrying an ukrainian guy!
-All the girls I met in ukraine, not only from anastasia date, more than 50, uses viber or whats app. If they tell you they don't, they are lying. And they will go to the meeting with a very simple cell phone (not a smartphone) because the agency lends them this phone for the meeting... so they can tell you they don't use viber(much popular than whats app) and they don't have internet access at home

If you like winter sports go to ukraine. Skiing in ukraine will cost about 10% what you will expend in Aspen, and you will be surrounded by beautiful girls, mostly not scammers...
I hope I helped, in total I already spent about 6 months in ukraine, many girlfriends but still not one worth marrying, I will just keep searching...

DO NOT BE FOOLED. WOMEN ARE PAID TO CHAT, TO KEEP YOU CHATTING AND IF THE WOMAN DOES NOT APPEAR ON VIDEO, SHE IS A MAN OR SOME OTHER PERSON CHATTING TO KEEP YOU ONLINE.

BE MAN, GO TO THE COUNTRY ON YOUR OWN, MAKE FRIENDS, MEET REAL PEOPLE, GET INTERESTED IN UKRAINIAN CULTURE, LEARN SOME OF THE LANGUAGE, AND THEN MAYBE YOU'LL MEET A REAL WOMAN.

FACT IS THOUGH THAT THE COUNTRY IS IN DIRE STRAIGHTS. MOST OF THE POEPLE THERE, MUCH MORE SO THAN IN AMERICA OR WESTERN EUROPE, OPERATE ON A PSYCHE OF CONSTANT FEAR OF LACK! PEOPLE LIKE THAT CAN NOT BE COUNTED ON TO BE HONEST OR REAL WITH THEIR FEELINGS. IT'S JUST A FACT!

IF YOU WANT TO MEET REAL WOMEN THERE THAT ARE SINGLE, GO TO THE UNIVERSITIES AND FIND THE HIGHEST PERFORMING STUDENTS. THESE ARE THE TYPES OF WOMEN YOU WANT TO MEET, WOMEN WHO ARE INVESTING IN THEMSELVES NO MATTER HOW BAD THEIR LIVES HAVE BEEN, SETTING THEMSELVES UP FOR SUCCESS.

AND DON'T EVER EVER MEET A WOMAN AT A BAR IN UKRAINE. YOU COULD END UP WITH A MISSING KIDNEY OR ANOTHER NIGHTMARE.

I LIVED THERE. I WAS TEACHING AT THE OLDEST UNIVERSITY IN THE COUNTRY. I WAS MEETING AMAZING PEOPLE ALL THE TIME. BUT I CAN TELL YOU THIS, THE MORE ATTRACTIVE A WOMAN IS THE MORE LIKELY SHE'S EITHER ALLOWED HERSELF TO BE USED FOR SEX, IS INVOLVED IN THE SEX TRADE, OR IS A MODEL EXPECTING THE WORLD TO LAND AT HER FEET. SO JUST AVOID THE UBER MODELS, UNLESS OF COURSE YOU ARE INTRODUCED AND MATCHED UP BY FRIENDS (REAL FRIENDS) YOU CAN TRUST, WHO SPEAK ENGLISH, OR YOU HAVE LEARNED RUSSIAN. ALSO, THE FARTHER WEST IN THE COUNTRY THE MORE LIKELY YOU ARE MEET WOMEN WHO ARE HONEST, EUROPEAN IN MENTALITY AND THEREFORE MORE ETHICAL. THE FARTHER EAST YOU GO (AND THIS IS JUST A GENERALIZATION) THE MORE LIKELY YOU ARE TO RUN INTO ORGANIZED SEX TRADE INCLUDING THESE SCAM DATING SCENARIOS.

IT'S A $#*!ED UP WORLD OVER THERE MAN. PEOPLE GET RUN OVER ON THE SIDEWALK DURING RUSH HOUR CUZ EVERYONE JUST DRIVES ON THE SIDEWALK TO GET THROUGH TRAFFIC AND THESE $#*!S AND $#*!S WILL GET OUT THEIR CARS AND BEAT YOU TO DEATH IF AnastasiaDate HIT YOU BECAUSE IN THEIR MIND YOU HIT THEM. IT'S REALLY THAT MESSY, PSYCHOLOGICALLY. SO DON'T YOU DARE IMAGINE THESE WOMEN ARE GOING TO BE SANE. YOU ARE A SUCKER, A MARK, A BANK MACHINE, MORE THAN YOU'D EVER BE HERE IN AMERICA.

YES WOMEN IN AMERICA ARE $#*!S MOSTLY, BUT YOU CAN ALWAYS WALK AWAY WITH YOUR SHIRT ON IF YOU'RE AT LEAST HALF SMART. OVER THERE, LOOK OUT!

STICK TO REAL WOMEN, GET THEM YOUNG, THE ONES WITH DADDY ISSUES AND THEN TREAT THEM LIKE GOLD, YET BE FIRM. THEY WILL BOND WITH YOU, THEY WILL DEVOTE TO YOU AND YOU MIGHT GET 10-15 YEARS OF A GOOD MARRIAGE IN BEFORE YOU'RE JUST TOO DAMN OLD AND THEY LEAVE AFTER ALL.

LIFE IS HARD BOYS. TIME TO USE YOUR $#*!ING HEADS, AND THAT MEANS GETTING YOUR HEAD OUT OF PORN SO YOU DON'T GO AROUND LIVING A FANTASY THAT SOME UBER MODEL FROM UKRAINE WHO'S 10-20-40 OR EVEN 50 YEARS YOUNGER IS ACTUALLY COMMUNICATING WITH YOU FOR ANY REASON OTHER TO SUCK YOU DRY OF MONEY AND THEN DISAPPEAR.

THEM'S THE FACTS JACK! SUCK IT UP AND GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE!
