Internet Dating Black Lists

Internet dating black lists list companies and individuals that have been known to mislead or otherwise fraud people. Most of these cases are related to Russian Internet dating/marriage industry.

Typical cases involve non-existing dating agencies that require upfront payments for their "matchmaking" service.

Also, another type of fraud involves, typically women, who, after a very short correspondence, start to complain about their financial situation and ask for money.

Common complaints on these frauds involve

Illness

General poverty

Husband/boyfriend had left leaving money problems

Car broken down and needing repair

No money for food and clothes at Christmas

Available Internet Dating Black Lists

To inform public about these scams, there are black lists available on the Internet. These black lists are published at:

antiscam.net

womenrussia.com

Of these, antiscam.net had 280 pictures of the dating scammers in 74 albums, the last time I checked.

WomenRussia.com, on the other hand, publishes, in addition to a black list, the book "Anti-Scam Guide", for men seeking a Russian wife.
