Yes, SexSearch.com is a scam. Like an idiot I joined, and soon after it dawned on me: I had (once again!) allowed my male propensities to override my sense of reason. Within 24 hours of signing up, I already got many "meet invites" from attractive, local twenty-somethings. How convenient. And how foolish of me to fall for it. I just hope that all I lost was 150 bucks.

I joined this site 3 days ago. I had 2 request to meet, 1 for friends and 3 emails, all within 24 hours of joining and before any photo was uploaded. I've since had 2 IC chat windows opened by members who's screen name cannot be found in the websites member search.

I'm in the UK and about 90% of my search criteria results, are made up of members who have been inactive for 6 months or more.

Copied from their T&C's

I wonder if the bogus contacts are an "Online Emissary"?

All the negative feedback is helpful, Thanks. My question is: does anyone know of any of these sights that are reputable with REAL PEOPLE? I've tried ALT.COM and they are a RIP OFF TOO.

Must be scam.. i belive its a scam... i upgraded to the silver acount(the cheapest one) at first it was fine.. but after an hour, the gold member upgrade popd up whenever i was hitting any random link..
I just canceld my account ... just wanted to know if anyone know about cancelation problems??
when you send the cancelation mail, do they stop the payment?

To make sure they do NOT re-bill your account, go to the payment processor website,

https://epoch.com/billingsupport

Enter the required info.
Click the ACTION button, this will cancel the Auto Re-billing setting.
You will receive an email to confirm this. Keep the conformation email in a safe place.

thank you people, i too noticed everythin you have spoken about, i got curious with the e-mails and the ladies not answering back, got contacted by woman who wouldn't look twice at me in the pub. glad i found this page as, i will not upgrade my membership.


on a footnote, the site sexinthecity, does the exactly same thing,

I am a woman on the site and I respond to as many people as I can. I get so many emails from men that I don't have time to respond to them all but I try.

I have already gone out with a wonderful man from the site and have MSN messages and friends from others.

I'm sorry that you think this site is a scam. I've enjoyed it.

Anyway, good luck.

I can now confirm that I've contacted 2 genuine members out of 40 so far.

SexSearch = EroticSearch, PassionSearch perhaps others.

So many plants here it feels like a greenhouse.

Half and Half, yes there are some dodgy profiles on there - I'd say about 80% of the chat pops ups are cam-girls. And it's not hard to see from the profile pics who are the cam girls and who are not.
But saying that, there are a lot of genuine profiles on there, so I would say NO to this site being a scam. From personal experience, some profiles on there are real and yes these girls / women will meet up to get there brains f****d.
Enjoy..!
