Has anyone tried Ameteur Match. I got a reply thru Craigslist from some girl who says she will only reply through this online service. So I signed up for free and I have 4 responses already. But of course you have to pay 29.95 to be able to respond to the alleged girls who are interested.

So I would like to know if it is worth it, has anyone gone through this one and actually met a girl who is as interested in sex as advertised or is this just another scam to take money and the girls are cybots lol?
 
I'm going to take a good guess....

The 4 girls are actually a 350lb Italian guy living in his mothers basement who is running a website called Amateur Match (in between Craigslist posting time).

Go for it, I might be wrong.... :D
 
Scam. Why would a woman look through craigslist and refuse to communicate with you except through this pay site?

Actually I have received messages on lavalife from women that want me to contact them through email. I haven't bothered to follow up as I assume it will eventually lead to some kind of a pay site, but since you seem to be interested in this sort of thing, I will cut and paste for you, or for anyone who cares to follow up. Please report back if you contact one or more:

Suspicious

Sort of suspicious that the girl who emailed me from Craigslist also uses gmail as do these other girls. Coincidence, who knows. Still considering if I should waste my $$$ to join. :confused:

The gmail addresses are the clue that it is a scam. In most cases, I've found that 90% of the dating website and personals scams that hit my spam filter have gmail rather than another email service. I am not sure WHY this is the case, but it is an indication that this Craigslist reply is not legit.
 
I will..

Use POF. It's free, and if you invest a bit of time it does yield results.


...co sign on this. I got plenty of result from Plenty Of Fish, in no small part because so many of the guys there are so lazy...cutting and pasting replies, spamming 50 chicks at once, posting lame pics with short boring profiles, etc.. If you...

  • Play in your league (translation - sure the smoking hot 20 something in the bikini looks delicious...to you and 10,000 other guys that she hears from every day who are also not male underwear models...and you are different how?)...while the 30 something and 40 something chicks go weeks between dates
  • Take time to actually READ THE PROFILES of girls who you responded to (versus just looking at the picture),
  • Write an interesting and original profile for yourself, with a flattering picture wearing decent clothes and NOT of your car, motorcycle or with a fish.
  • Write interesting and original notes whenever you respond, and
  • Accepting that the success rate for response is about 1 in 2, of those you will get a phone call out of 1 of 2. and of those you speak to on the phone you will get a date out of 1 of 2, and of those you meet you will get (or want) a second date out of 1 of 2 (meaning perhaps 1 in 10 chicks that you contact you'll actually go on a second date with)

...you will do ok. I averaged about a date a week...sometimes more (good weeks it would be one new chick, and one other chick I had already been out with, more often it was either or). Over the course of the last year of being single I have probably slept with 10 to 12 different chicks...and I'd say I met 8 or so on Plenty Of Fish (including my current GF). None could model or be a "Sun girl" currently, though I'd say about half could have been strippers had they wanted to be when they were younger...not the 200K a year stinking hot kind, but they could have put food on the table that way had they chose to. Or, in other words, I'd say at least half the gals I've dated this past year were / are as or more attractive than many of the "mature" providers who post here.

Now...if this sounds like a lot of work, and / or less than desirably results to you (too much work for chicks who are too old and too ugly), then by all means keep doing what you are doing now that is working so well for you...

amateurmatch is a scam
she is obvisuly an employee trying to lure you to to take your money and those emails you got are fakes from bots or employees when you sign up using your credit card the emails will stop

AmateurMatch.com is a scam. It uses a bot to send seductive female emails to 'free' members to intice them to sign up for a paid membership. I got several hundred propositions from women shills making explicit sexual propositions to me at always the same time of day and night.

To prove this, I signed on and deleted all info in my profile and deleted all photos; leaving only my handle and email address. With only my handle, it would be inconcievable to be propositioned by any woman. Yet they continued to come in at the same time, every day and night, proving conclusivly that this site is a very well designed scam. Very very talented web designer(s)set this scam up. Wonder how many men have been taken by this very ingenious scam?

Beware any sexually oriented 'dating sites' - - they are almost certainly all scams!

Yeah scam

Yeah, it is sure a scam, I have been getting "buddy" invitations from these beautiful woman and emails etc...

The girl who originally emailed me responded twice but it did not make sense, her handle is Ryersongirl69@gmail.com but she states she goes to UofT and that she had classes today to 2p.m. I've been out of school a while, but Saturday classes were not the norm esp in May. Her last message was that she would not be available for her email as she had to return the lap top she was using to her sister. But what about internet cafe's downtown. So obviously a scam. Won't be wasting 29.95 for nothing. :o

You must be rather tall and handsome yourself I'm assuming because the responses I've had (I'm pretty good looking but women filter me out because of my short height) on PoF are like 1 in 10? I've heard that the average for men on any dating site across the board is 1 in 20 responses.
 
PofF definitely has possibilities but obviously different men will have different experiences. Tall or short, butterface or GQ model, going after 30 somethings when you are 30 something or when you are 60 something, do you like dancing, relaxing with a glass of wine in front of the fireplace, and going for long walks on the beach (like 90% of the women on the site) or do you have tastes that are a little less conventional. But no question, there are real women there, lots of them, and they are looking to meet men. Personally, I have met some women but do not find them to be very appealing (so far). Oh, I find a lot of them are bible thumpers, but you can filter those out of your search if you want.

Someone not too long ago posted here that one key to success on PofF is to not use the favourite function. That makes sense to me. When you put a woman on your favourite list, she is notified. I suspect for many women, the message they get is, "This guy finds your profile to be interesting, but for the time being he is going to chase after some other ladies that are more interesting. He might get back to you later when he has time." I agree with the suggestion that a thoughtful reply that shows you have read their profile is the best approach. Keep it fairly brief and include a photo if one is not already posted.
 
I'm not bad looking...

...or so I am told, but I am at least 40 lbs heavier than I'd like to be, and going bald.

I really think it is how you carry yourself....the whole "confidence" thing. That can come across in your profile, in your notes, etc.

More than one woman I met on POF stated she responded because my profile seemed sincere (I state plainly that I am not looking for a relationship, that I could stand to lose some weight, etc.), that I didn't come across as cheap (I also mention in the profile that I like to show a woman a good time), that I was plain regarding what I was looking for (my profile also states that I am absolutely not doing the sugar daddy thing), and because the note I sent didn't come across as begging.

I am totally serious...about half the women I went out with actually wrote me first because they thought my profile and profile pic were appealing, unique and refreshing....and I swear I am no underwear model. I also had a lot of babes actually mention that the appreciate the care taken with grammar and spelling.

That said...while I am not particularly handsome or slim...I am not short. Being short WILL kill you.

Height for women is like looks for men...having it compensates for a lot...not having it requires a lot to compensate.

Really though...if you don't spam...if you read the profiles and select the gals because they SEEM like they are compatible with you and you with them...I can't see how your response rate could be worse than 1 in 3. Remember...the women are there to meet men...if you are the type they want to meet...why would they not respond?

Caveat: Everything I am saying I hold as true only for women over the age of 35. I don't bother with any under that, even when a few (very few, but a few) approached me.

...I was told more than once that chicks HATE IT when a guy adds them as a favorite without permission...most women seemed to think of it as the same as adding someone to your buddy list, even though it did not require their consent (they can delete themselves however). No adding to favorites until you have spoken to a gal...and they reply. Then...you add them as a favorite under the notion of being able to access their profile easily...

Ahhhh...that would be particularly handsome? Sorry, gotta bust you on that one. LOL

One more thing about PofF. You must be prepared to date women that look younger than they are. Just about every profile says that they look younger than they are. Kinda makes you wonder where all the ladies are that look their age.
 
I've often wondered about online dating sites. I suspected long ago that Ashley Madison did the same thing...having people send you messages so that you would have to use credits to reply. I had very little info in my profile and drop dead gorgeous women were sending me messages, so I would have to use credits to reply.

I have no proof, it's just me being wary of these sites.

Amateur match is pretty obviously a scam. I've wondered the same thing about Ashley Madison, or Lavalife. Anyone have any similar experiences?
 
Without beating a dead horse

Since it is 100% that Amateur Match is a scam, I can add that a big tell is that the woman (bots) who send you messages, send generic messages. Generic in that they contain no information other than they want to meet or chat with you. There is no mention of any details of your profile. Some say we live close but they do not have an address just CA. Here is an example "We live in the same area. Perfect! I hope this site is correct because I'd love to talk to you sometime soon. This weekend would be great so hit me back. Talk to you later. XOXO"

Another big tell is I just signed up for free yesterday and I've gotten a few messages and I quote "Did you get my message that I sent last week? It could be my fault but I'm pretty sure that I did everything right when I sent it to you." Obviously I just signed up a little over 24 hours ago.

This is absolutely true unfortunately for me. There was even an article in The Globe & Mail the past Friday where informal surveys found that I think 25% of women will filter out men under 5'10" (effectively removing a lot of great guys out there and then they have the nerve to complain that they can't find a man).

My own experiences in the last two years though:
- Let the woman find you. Yea, it'll take months before anyone even sees your profile, but if the woman takes the initiative there's probably going to be a better connection there than you spamming everyone.
- Women know guys spam. Don't be that guy complaining about other guys who do this, just accept it as part of the system.
- There are A LOT of fake profiles on PoF, LL, FF and etc. I've sent messages to women on PoF and when I check its status I see the message was deleted without being read or they never bothered looking at my profile/picture.
 
That would be...

...so....does this mean we can't grab that beer we talked about?
 
With so many free ways to hook up like CL personals or CasualKiss or just MSN and YAHOO chat rooms why would anyone pay for illegitimate or even legit sites like Lavalife - where your money gets sucked faster than your you-know-what.

I put in my free AM profile that I'm looking for a woman who knows how to shut up and bring me a beer and give me head. I got all the same responses that were posted here. "Hey we live in the same area" "Hey hit me up sometime" "Hey I liked your profile better than all the others".
