ArabMatchmaking.com review: Fake winks and fake members 39

Featured review
This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I created a free membership after receiving a barrage of unsolicited e-mails. Even though my profile has very limited information and no picture I am getting a barrage of messages and winks from girls who claim to have seen my pic and liked it! They all say they have read my profile even though none of them appear on the list of people who have viewed my profile.

The funny thing is they are all about the same age, they are all divorced with no children and looking to start a fresh page, and all looking for men in the same age range. They all claim to be lebanese even though their messages use broken Egyptian dialect.

In order to reply you have to become a paid member. There's the catch. Anyone thinks these girls will still be there after I join? :-)

You know, I feel the exact same thing. Im also a member there, I also don't have any picture uploaded, and I keep receiving same email from same girls, all divorced and looking 4 a second chance. None of them has viewed my profile. And they all out of state from where I live. And many of them send me an email saying thanks for the wink, which I never send? I'm really suspicious about the site.. so I advise you to not sign up for the site. I know couple of site out there who uses the same scam. So why would this 1 be any different?

I also believe the people who run those web sites are scamming people. I had complained several times about certain 'females' who start emailing me yet they never have looked at my profile and eventually start asking for money. You should know the scam, they usually end up being men in 'west Africa', Nigeria is my guess. The site has not removed any of these 'female' profiles no matter how many complaints are lodged. They just reeled me in and got my money. I cancelled when they would not refund me anything.

ive had the same experience. i got a message initially from girls for marriage. i paid the membership and they never got back to me. same divorced with no kids. after my membership ran out i started getting messages again from beautiful women making comments like " how do i get lucky to get a man like you". ive contacted arabmatchmaking but got no reply. i want to find out who the owners are!. also they have muslims4marriage.com. They are con artists, so plz people be aware and spread the word. i am gonna complain and get my money back as ive got evidence they did this scam. BEWARE THEY ARE CON ARTISTS !

Hi,
I am a single female who posted on Arabmatch, and it seems to be free for women. But even after I tried to close my account I kept getting fake winks, and messages of interest, from male friends that had also closed their accounts. I think they just keep info to keep men paying in hopes of finding true love.

This website is a scam. I kept receiving fake winks and emails too. I had two different profiles and the funny thing is that I received the same winks and flirts from the same members to both of my profiles.
I guess it's not a new site and they're trying to get members to join and pay.
scam scam..this site should be shut down

I have been trying to delete my profile by sending them (arabmatchmaking and muslims4marraige) emails telling them to delete my profile. But the don't. I then change my profile and I write some bad things. The site changes it to something nice. I hide my profile, the site unhides it again. I changed my description to that of an ugly man and I still get emails from women saying that they want to marry me. My question is simple, who is the administration for the website so I can contact them and complain formally to them?

I have not signed up yet after being a free member for a few months, however, I was thinking about this girl that emailed me yesterday and how perfect she seemed for me so I was more or less ready to sign up. I was looking forward to contacting her after work today, but I was a little doubtful about the legitemacy of the website when I thought about how I will pay so I thought I'd check by googling the website to make sure it was legitimate. I am now convinced that it is scamful.
It is such a shame that these people are doing something so low to make money. There must be thousands of people who are cursing the beneficiaries of this scam. For those who have fallen into their trap, don't worry, God will give them what they deserve!

I really appreciate this blog. Thanks for sharing your stories.
Take care and Assalamualaikum all.

I joined this website out of curiosity and in the first week I received quite a few winks and messages, and one by one they proved to be scammers and fakes. It was rather funny to notice that the majority of them seemed to be from "Morocco", the majority of them happened to be "accountants" (some with just HighSchool diplomas) and almost ALL of THEM have the following in their profiles about their ideal match:

"I am an attractive woman, kind, generous and cultured. I like the finer things in life but I find joy in the simple things and never forget who I am. Please contact me if you like my profile."!

Recently I noticed that my paid membership had been based on "recurring payment." Luckily I ontacted my financial institute and they immediately cancelled the automatic payment. Then I looked up the contact information for Arabmatchmaking.com and tried to get in touch with them: Their customer service e-mail was "algrenadier@aol.com" ! And the phone number listed for the customer support was a cell phone number that has no identification in the recorded greeting except the phone number!

Websites such as this are a disgrace to the Arab community and could leave the non-Arabs such as myself with the impression that the Arabs are not trustworthy. As for my membership in Arabmatchmaking.com, I am not going back to the site any longer, after all the complaits I've read about hem here. They absconded $35.00 from me and that was a lessons I had to pay for.

well every one I guess in the same shoes, but you guys have to hear this I have had my account for almost 2 years and the same 10 to 20 girls thay have been sending me messages that they are in love with my profile and we will click bla bla bla ! the funny thing is that they have been sending the same message text more or less for the past 2 years asking me why don't you reply please reply etc, but the weired thing is that why no one leave their email or contact info haaa :D no email no phone number or msn ID nothing how ODDDDDDDD ! and the biggest scam is if some one or fictious one tries to IM you !you can't even reply coz you even have to be a member to even reply to that.
in conclusion on this site all you get is to loose money & time but effectiveness NOTHING!
I beleive those people are hungry for money like dogs are to meat ...

Arab match making, UAE singles, Dubai friendship site and dozen others to name etc, etc. are all the part of the same network, amazingly enough about half a dozen at the time of writing this email are being advertized here on the very same web site of http://www.complaintsboard.com and I don't know who is running them exactly and how they can be stopped but such web sites are now showing the failure of internet's controllability due to its enormity and automation. Why I am saying this is because those relationship sites mentioned above are being hosted in countries outside united states and/or Canada and they have either bots setup to reply to newly uploaded profiles of the users or their fake profiles are being controlled by the network services agents abroad, just like in a call center who are paid to send you fake winks and emails even though if you don't have your full profile there (though call centers are legit businesses).
This whole process can be automated and the agents get paid by sending emails to the victims profiles (I mean paying members) and when the new profile gets uploaded the agents also get informed automatically that there is one out there to be trapped and allured. I was once able to in get touch with one Iranian girl who was also wondering if these sites were real enough or not, she has been suffering like me but just like a needle in a hay stack she and I were able to get in touch (somehow being very lucky) and she was living in UAE too like me and we did finally meet but it was just a pure luck or perhaps God heard our voices. But this does not mean that these sites are still valid. Until now and before meeting her up there, I have not been able to get in touch with anybody real from there except her but in a few exceptions I exchanged messages with some girls and later those girls were discovered to be Africans impostring as Muslim, westerns or any other girls and then they always started asking for money and some even gave the phone numbers and there were male voices in the back ground with no one talking to me when I talked to them, and sometimes there were laughers typically of black male voices.
So the scenario seems to be a scam setup from somewhere in Africa probably has links in USA and in the west and most probably these sites seem to be owned or run by black women’s association somewhere in Africa as I was able to extract this information from one of them scammers talking to me. These women or whoever they are, have always finally admitted or revealed to me that they are black women and they wanted some financial help because they have a lot of money which they cannot use it until they transfer it to my account but before that I must pay some fee for the transfer to take place and they were either a general’s daughter in Africa or a runaway politician’s daughter. Similarly in many incidents the cases were different but all in all these sites mentioned above are up there with different aliases when they get banned with their older names. And they are there to only get your information and ultimately the money.
The Iranian girl I met was facing the same trouble but by fake male profiles. She and I also concluded one more thing that when some real profiles get to know each other their emails get blocked by 90% so they could never reach each other and leave the site so the site owner could continue to shove in the money in to his/her pockets through their memberships. It was only when I was live chatting with her on that site I was able to get the phone numbers exchanged and that is how we met otherwise there was no way we could have met. She wrote me many emails and vice versa but we received only 10% of them by each other and the site claims to filter emails based on containing personal information like emails and phone numbers which is all ### and they don’t do it for this reason alone, so the only time you will get a phone number by email of the other prospect is when he/she is going to scam you. May I also inform you that one can only chat and send emails if he or she is a fully paid member, free membership will not get you anything there except that you will keep receiving huge amount of messages, winks and chat offers and immediately when you will pay them their very same messages, winks and chat requests will go away and will never happen again, which clearly proves that those sites mentioned above are all fakely controlled by either bots (artificial intelligent computer programs) or paid agents. I have been on this site as paid member on and off for at least year and half so my message to you people out there is to spread the words and be careful of these sites and more of its aliases to come as the old ones get blocked out on the net.

Yours truly to all,
M. Zubair

Fake. Fake. Fake. Everything is fake and fraudulent on this website. This website is created by an organized group of con and scam artists. They create all fake profiles and post those by themselves. Then they wink at you. They try all their best to hook up with you and when they are successful they will tell you that they live in any of the African countries, they are in distress and will ask for your money to send to them.

Despite my repeated request through their "Contact US" page not to renew my subscription after my initial six month period expires, they still took out money from my bank account for another month without notifying me ! How unethical and cheaters are those scammers and con artists !

Beware of these site and please report this unethical and fraudulent site to FBI, Federal agencies and tell your circles not to even try this site for dating or marriage. This website is a den of cheaters and frauds !

Arabmatchmaking is a scoundrel making money by creating fake profile of their own, even if your subscription has ended they use your email to create your fake profile with slightly different user name of your original one which you are not aware of by using the same email you have registered initially with them. When the subscription is nearing to the end date of your subscription they will send you fake winks and message like, I would love to hear from you, or I would like to get to know your is very common to trap you to pay and continue to subscribe to carry own to reply back and send their fake messages. They make fool of people, most of the girls from which you receive interests and messages to you will not even respond back if you reply back. Its a scam and nothing, just do not get involved your valuable money and time with this scoundrel website.
