I wanna find one who will send ME money!

Don’t hold your breath.

Oh no!! I thought I was a 66 year old babe magnet😟

But you ARE!

@MsKathleen Flattery will get you everywhere πŸ™‚

@Mitch07102 I knew that...

Thank you! One thing that annoys m.... Hang on a second, a lovely young lady just sent me a photo of her wearing a tight shirt.

Want to swap?
Last week I got a photo of a tall red-head, side profile, with what I assumed were at least size EE Knockers and when I took a closer look IT had a definite 5 O-clock shadow and was either carrying a Colt .357 long-barrelled Colt revolver in the front of it slacks OR it was the outline of something very MASCULINE.
Needless to say I gave that one the P.O.Q. (Piss OFF Quick) plus the Royal Order of the G.G.S. (Got get Stuffed as well.

@Triphid
I'll keep my top-heavy redhead with a wardrobe problem. Thanks for the offer though. πŸ˜‚ (I might consider a trade for a brunette though.)

And I thought I met my true love....geesh,

They all seem to start off their private messages with "Hello, Dear".... hahahahaha

My inbox: β€œHello handsome...”

@Bobbyzen
Proof that they don't check my bio... :/

Oh, dear!

They've been here since I joined over 3 years ago. Have two private messaging me now who are probably scammers. They will want to text or email or chat on another site. If they talk on the phone they are always foreign no matter where they claim they live. I had my 1st Nigerian scammer 10 years ago. Its usually more than one person sharing your phone number and will eventually invent a story asking you to send money. DON"T!!!!!!!!!

Right on . Other things I've noticed , they don't write much of a bio ., they seldom read yours before writing you . and their opening line generally reads something like ,"Hi beautiful . How are you today."

@Cast1es hi handsome my age is really 33 I love u let's get married 3rd text exchanged from hacked account real woman age 70 pof makes impossible to change birth year by hackers

@Cast1es
I wonder what they would say if the response was 'Well, I have a bad case of gas and I just saw my 80 year old neighbor naked.'

Yup.

Why don't you tell us how to spot them now.

6

Been here as long as I have!

6

We have been battling them for some time, they just seem to have come out like locusts, most find really slim pickings here.

5

There are 2 groups here that are dedicated to spotting scammers. You may find either or both of them interesting or valuable.

Damn! I always knew I didn't fit in.

5

Excessive compliments, very attractive , if they want to contact off site . We have a scammer site report them

I've gotten more of those than I can count here on Agnostic. And like Holysocks says, they are always very young, attractive, wearing tight clothes.

@TomMcGiverin
Stop talking about my potential girlfriends! They have all promised me a share in a diamond mine!

@Holysocks Whatever you want, you just keep telling yourself that, lol...

I have three years of online dating experience with Batch, and the scammers have been here on Agnostic since the beginning, as far as I can tell. They should be obvious to spot.

Did you Catch a Match on Batch?

@Krish55 I use a rhyme instead of the real name, in case that dating site wanted to sue Agnostic for something they didn't like being posted. As for catching a match, I am beginning to see someone who has potential. Stay tuned.

@TomMcGiverin really ?? Another moderate believer female ? Most Atheists are in mixed marriages but too many courtships fail for inept pandering to what they think a real Atheist IS

@Larry68Feminist She is a moderate Episcopal believer, not an always attender of church either. She was a clergy wife in her last marriage before being widowed, but she believes we should all think for ourselves rather than blindly believe.

@TomMcGiverin I dated a UNI professor Presbyterian widow to an Atheist history professor we broke up last week when I bought my new car in Waterloo... She feels Atheism is for discussion NOT civil rights to freedom FROM theocracy.... Some of my oldest friends here in Ames are Episcopal liberals....all married or lesbians

@TomMcGiverin Episcopals are as Catholics without the doctrine or dogma. All the ritual without all the judgement. Reasonable I have found. Next to Unitarians they are my favorite Christian sect. Good luck 'bro. I'm rooting for 'ya.

@Mooolah Thanks. I think she is very reasonable about religion and respects my difference with her. I dated a practicing Catholic for six months before Covid and that was not part of why that ended, was never really an issue in that relationship either.

Scammers come and scammers go.

They have been here for as long as I have which is over 3 years. They are so obvious I don't know how anyone doesn't spot them, at least the women scammers are. I don't know about the men except they seem to mostly be from Africa. πŸ™‚

The men are equally easy to spot.

They have been here since the beginning.

So far they have been pretty obvious and easy to spot. But I'm not here to hook up, so when I get hit on in a personal message I assume it's a scammer automatically.

Isn't there a watchdog group on this site? I wish I could remember the name of the group. You can report scammers to the group.

Ryo1 Level 8 May 5, 2021

Unfortunately the watch dog retired from the site.πŸ™

Hi Cyklone. That's a shame. Plus, I haven't been on here long enough to know that. I must've imagined that there is such a group.

there are two [agnostic.com]

Hi glennlab, Good to know.

You are one brave lady.

I did my research too, date buster on google does reviews,, it states that most sites contain about 97% fake computer generated profiles,,, and if you change your region from one area to the other side of the country,, same profiles show up. These 97% will send you tons of like you messages and yes,,take your cash and you never meet.

sigh...

One disappeared here when the alleged female Atheist 41 was falling in love with me living with a single mom lost her job I offered to come get "her" when "she" asked me to slow down then all messages vanished

omg 18 months!?!

to a man that would make him think that you've been ran through more times than the Holland Tunnel (shout out CGA)

FYI the only thing a man is scammin for is sum kooter shots

I got a personal message from a woman who raved about how handsome I am. I was flattered but then she disappeared.

Same things happened to me a couple times recently. Scammers come and go all the time.

Nigeria is the hotspot, overtaking the scam industry,,, about 145 million per year was the last report I saw,, drug lords with mules to harvest from the stupid people falling for the same scam!
