“So many fake profiles...”

Yudha P.
10/25/23

You can use Google lens to find real owner of the photos. Here are some of fake profiles I reported to FilipinoCupid, but no action from them. I believe FC just simply don't care about fake profiles, as long as they have many men paying for the monthly subscription.

I used FilipinoCupid from 2012 to 2014 and was a paying member. One of the features was the keyword search. It made it very easy to find other members with the same hobbies and interests as you could type in a very specific word or term and then see every profile with that word or term in it. I met my ex-gf this way by using the keyword search feature and we had a great relationship for 8 years. Now in 2024 I'm back on FilipinoCupid but there is no keyword search feature. Why would they get rid of this and feature? There's no reason to get rid of it. I mean, I'm not a website expert, but how hard would it be to keep the keyword search feature? What harm would keeping this feature cause? Some of their competitor sites such as DateInAsia has a keyword search or hashtag search feature. FilipinoCupid made a real mistake when they removed the keyword search feature.

Tip for consumers:
Put the keyword search feature back and I’ll edit my review here and give you 5 stars.

Full of Scammers but can find genuine ones
September 15th, 2023
• Previous review

I have been in FilipinoCupid for quite sometimes (ON/OFF) and here are the conclusions:

1. If the girls are pretty and show off their body part openly, I can assure you that 99% of them just want you to connect with them (through WhatsApp), and later try to scam you with sad stories, etc.

2. From my experience, Pinay girls are less knowledge to trap you with Crypto investment. Crypto scams mostly from Hong Kong Cupid or ladies from HK.

3. If you say hello and they are very fast to reply and give you their Whatsapp number, I can assure you that 99% they are scammers.

4. If you say hello to a beautiful Pinay and she does not reply you, I can assure you that 99% of them are real person / genuine. They are selective in talking with the guys.

5. Never send money if you never meet them. I requested to meet face to face, and they ask money to pay the taxi fare, etc. Once they receive the money, they will never show up.

Apart from scamming issues, I have met few Pinays face to face, and they are nice women. Unfortunately, due to some gaps, we are now just friends only.

Conclusion: if you really want to find a relationship beautiful Pinay, visit directly the city, hang around on the malls and cafes, and you will see authentic Pinay women which may genuinely looking for foreign friends. Sample: You can visit Cebu IT Park, Ayala mall, etc. to see original beautiful Pinay and make friends from there. I guarantee you will never regret meeting them.

Seriously, 100's of contacts all wanting "serious long term relationship" then they all want money! Some try to lure you onto other premium sites, $28 to receive their video calls. I'm positive they get commission from these sites. Not a single contact so far has been real. Watch out for Skype requests, lol I didn't know it still existed. You will hear every possible sob story going, medical, food, pawned her guitar, you name it you will hear it. Save yourself the money and don't bother.

Most unverified posts with attractive people are fake and will ask for money. Although the site "permanently" deleted many they are back the next day
One to stay away from is Jacky Erpa user name Erpa. She has issued death threats and the site deleted 2 profiles but is back and they no longer take action. The site even verified photoshopped IDs of many people. For a free subscription it's entertainment to hear all the lies and scams but don't pay for this site ever

Tip for consumers:
Only contact verified profiles

This is such a massive scam on the level I haven't seen before. FilipinoCupid has been a complete waste of money! First of all, you have to pay for everything and the costs are exorbitant. Then you have to sift through bunch of bots. Finally, 15 out of 16 women I interacted with either asked me for money for rent and phone or wanted to give me the "financial consultation" pressing me to invest money into some kind of "innovative project". They have a new approach to scam on FilipinoCupid, but it's still ridiculous!

Dear Ron'
We apologize for your unwelcoming experience. We have zero-tolerance towards members of the nature you described. Unfortunately, it is extremely hard for us to verify the real intentions of the members as most dating sites do not require any form of formal identification to register and most members use their private email addresses to communicate with members.
It is very sad that a small minority of dishonest people will make such a negative impression of our site, as the vast majority of the members registered with us are honest.
We do our best to remove these people from our site, deleting any profiles showing dubious photos or information, as soon as we see them, however, we also rely on our valued members who kindly report to us any suspect or fake profiles they find on our site.
In addition, Our fraud prevention team works 24/7 to remove non-genuine profiles. If you would like to report a suspicious profile, please submit a ‘report abuse’ form or contact us at www.filipinocupid.com/en/help/helpdesk

Somebodys(probably angry young Asian males) are constantly putting up fake profiles (using jpegs of beautiful Chinese women). It's been going on for years and FC does little or nothing to police the problem. If you've been on the site a while you can begin to see the patterns. Why do they do it? Jealousy(towards white males). Anger. Low-self esteem. Too much time on their hands. I would NEVER join this site. Easily the worst Asian dating site out there.

First never, never send money to anyone you haven't met in person. What I have done is use the free feature to gather possible profiles.
Then right before you're ready to visit pay for one month only. Contact them and weed out the scammers. Set up meetings and have fun. Be smart about it.

All the women the I contacted and/or contacted me turned out to be fake. This goes for the "Verified" women as well. One "Verified" women on the site disappeared/deactivated her profile as soon as she got my WhatsApp number. I mean in like 2 minutes. The do not refund money either, not if you sent one like, message, or any other contact, they will not refund. The are a total scam!

In this website 80% profiles are fake and scammers there. But real people also there.

Most hated thing is the customer service after we pay we can chat there but from the customer service they suspending the profile teling by

4.10 Negative covenants
You represent, warrant and covenant that:
(b) you will not use the Service to engage in any form of harassment or offensive behaviour, including but not limited to the distribution of any sexually and/or racially offensive, abusive, threatening, vulgar, obscene, harassing, libelous, slanderous, defamatory or objectionable material of any kind, nor any unlawful or illegal material, or any material that infringes or violates another party's rights (including, but not limited to, intellectual property rights and privacy rights);

But when we ask to show any single messages or word as they telling we violating there website terms but they never show always comes same respond from the customer service only we violated the web site Terms Of Use only that they tells they never send any proof when we ask.

So this so useless pay and talk in this all the cupidmedia apps and websites

Until they get payment they wait then suspend your account

Tip for consumers:
dont use or buy the membership after buy membership your profile they will suspend

A lot of reviews here complain about girls asking for money. Come on, get real. Why do you think a hot 20 year old wants to chat with your saggy $#*!?! Of course she wants money in some form or another. Even if they are completely legit, they want a better life than their poverty stricken existence in their own country. Having said that, I have found a lot of genuine girls looking for a BF or husband to come rescue them. Most of them are desperately poor, mostly uneducated and living in a shack somewhere. That doesn't mean they are a scam. It is just the profile of the typical female user. A well educated, professional Filipina is not going to hang out here.

Once you accept that and if you want to find a pretty young companion for a while your have your choice of pickings. But you must go there. Sitting at home on your computer you are going to just attract scammers. You should join the site 2 weeks before arriving, make a bunch of contacts and meet them when you arrive. You will have your pick of multiple young pretty girls to spend time with.

Shocking website totally full of girls scamming for $$ and trying to get you to join a partner site as well so you can "see them". Seriously it's a total waste of time so please don't bother.
I assure you any pretty girl you contact will soon come back asking you to join other sites which of course you need to pay for the privilege.
The site was ok many years ago but after re-joining recently it's obvious it's full of scammers. Sad but true

I met my wife on FilipinoCupid in August of 2019. I was fortunate to visit her and her family in the Philippines a couple of times before the lockdowns began. We got married in Dubai in July of 2021. The process of bringing your Filipina wife or fiancé to the US takes time, but my wife arrived in the US in April of 2022. We could not be happier!

Did I encounter potential scammers on the site asking for money? Yes, but you will find that on any dating site. Did my wife encounter potential scammers on the site just looking for a holiday girlfriend or video sex? Yes, but again, there are players and perverts on every dating site.

Initially, you will experience a kind of "high" from all the attention you get. Feel free to enjoy that experience, but you can't really get to know someone unless the two of you agree to be exclusive and really focus on trying to get to know one another.

One thing to note. There is no such thing as divorce in the Philippines. If you meet a woman that is married and separated from her Filipino husband, she will have to get an annulment (from the Philippine government, not the Catholic Church) before you can bring her to the US on a spousal or fiancé visa. Annulments in the Philippines take time (the quickest I am aware of was about 6 months, but most take 1.5 - 2 years or more). They also take money (around $5000 USD, more money than most Filipina's can afford). Please keep this in mind if the woman you are getting to know is separated, lacks the funds to file for an annulment, or you are unwilling to help her financially or wait out the process.

Be skeptical of individuals promising quick and inexpensive annulments. Many Filipina's fall victim to annulment scams! The US government will attempt to verify the validity of the annulment during the immigration process, and some women only discover they were scammed when their visa application is denied.

If you do your due diligence, FilipinoCupid is a great site to meet an amazing Filipina woman. The 7000+ islands in the Philippines are full of them!

Signed up for a 3 month subscription, was permanently suspended in 4 days.
"As you have indicated on your account, you are not seeking members for the aforementioned reasons. Your profile has therefore been permanently removed and cannot be reactivated".
First, they approve all profiles before they become active, and 2nd, nothing on my profile stated either way. I got LOTS of messages from what seemed to be bots, fake ID's and some really homely profile pictures. Only 1 picture on each profile.
I was banned after I put a word at the end of my profile, stating, if you send a message, start with this word so I know you read my profile.
Next morning my profile was banned permanently.

Tip for consumers:
Buy one month if you must try it and IMMEDIATELY turn off auto-renewal.

Signed up to Filipino Cupid several years ago and did find a Filipina, who I met and dated in real life for 2 years.

There are plenty of real Filipina's on the site BUT there are a HUGE number of scammers that make using the site extremely frustrating.

I found that I was spending about 90% of my time talking to scammers which only left a very small amount of time to talk to legitimate people who weren't out to fleece you.

Identifying the obvious ones is kind of easy (Snapchat, WhatsApp etc) - but it's almost impossible to be sure because some will drag it out for weeks before they think you're ready to send money.

Honestly I think it's better to give it a miss - jump on a plane - go to the country and meet someone there - hang out in any Jollybee for an afternoon and you'll have someone before you can say "more rice please"

Lots of fakes, lots of scammers, Filipino Cupid slow/negligent in removing profiles that are reported as fake. Perhaps it's to get subscription from men who think the girls are real. To be fair, I have met several women who are genuine, but I would say over 90% are looking for money. Beware

Tip for consumers:
All scanners will move the conversation to chat app. Then ask for money. My advice is video chat right away to see them, then make your decision if they are genuine or just one of the thousands of scammers on Filipino Cupid

There are many ads of women that are located in different cities in China. They all claim that they are working as nannies or tutors for Chinese families. When writing to them I find that they all have a similar story. They do not have cell phones that they can communicate through texting or Skype. Only have access to emails. Most of them say they would like to meet me in my country. This all seems to be a scam. Is it? Am I being foolish thinking that these women actually exist?

Any china profile is scammer. They ask your phone number, or mail, because there in china dont work other applications. But is scam. They want only your phone number/mail. Also any other report for others type of scammer do for zero result, rarely they delete the profile. Is like they want to keep the scammers. Sometimes i have to do 3 reports or more only for one profile, and at least they delete the profile. But after how long time? That is worst for clients and for site.
