Gagahi is a mystery to me.
About 80% of profiles are fake, but a few appear to be genuine.
The person you are chatting to is not the person in the photos.
You can easily weed these fakes out by demanding they take a selfie with a particular pose. EG one hand on head.
Beware, these fakes have a stash of photos to send as required.
Most drop out at this point.
But a few respond positively.
At least you know the person you are chatting to is the one in their profile pics.
The fakes insist you use IM chat which is very expensive, and i think they receive commissions for this. Otherwise there is no reason for them to insist on this.
The genuine profiles are happy to chat on DM which provides 3500 characters per day for no additional cost. But to use DM you must be a VIP which costs $150-200 per month.
Some profiles will say they are in your country or city but are really in China. Again you can easy eliminate the fakes by insisting they take a selfie showing your city in the background. Some will come back with a pic of your city without their face in the pic. Don't be fooled by this. Some will become defensive and aggressive. Walk away immediately. Don't fall for the hot pics of a beautiful woman.
Back to DM. Direct Message.
This works well and you now have a few confirmed women chatting to you on DM.
You can have online sex, very hot chat and selfie porn pics via email with these women.
They seem to enjoy every moment and are very happy to send the most intimate pics and have the hottest chats possible.
In time you can actually develop a strong online relationship in this manner.
But where to from here?
They are all in China and you are not.
Most speak very little or no English.
Most point blank refuse to give contact details. EG phone number, and come up with very creative but unbelievable excuses.
They can give an address but its not a confirmed address.
A selfie showing Passport, drinking license or ID card would do it but most won't agree to this.
So what have you got?
A woman you have an emotional attachment to, but you never actually meet.
When a meeting is arranged they come up with, again, very creative excuses.
So why do they do this?
Are they satisfied with a "Walter Mitty" fantasy relationship. Yes I think they are. Or perhaps they are in a relationship and just want some online anonymous fun using someone else's pics.
I think if the woman sends you a selfie showing her ID card you are home free. I think thats about one profile in say 25-50.
Interestingly, with monthly fees and the cost of translation, these people' are certainly spending north of $4000US per year. Many would be at least double that.
So most have jobs and are financially well off.
The mystery to me is "why do they do this for no physical gain?" It rarely ends in a relationship.
Any ideas?
Perhaps its simply the Chinese psyche that im not tuned in to?
