• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

If anybody watched the Dr. Phil's Show recently ( in as much as i don't normally do ) , he had the very subject on the scams coming from Nigeria but the axis was on these dating sites that are fleecing our hopeful dating connections in the USA and other countries. But this doesn't just stop at the dating thing as it is bleeding into other. We have seen it hit the animal sites. We have seen it on the " get rich " scheme. There are vivid class rooms and a tele-marketing rooms filled with these scammers reading from a script. There is false photos of people contending to be someone else or themselves. There is identity theft. There is down right theft of money transactions in the forum of money orders no good but not known at the time by the un-suspected. There is a twist of to much money sent and one needs to send back the extra after cashing in or depositing. There is almost a " cartel " ( maybe there is in fact a cartel ) of these scams and life can be even threaten. Unfortunately as explained, these scams are not going away since they thrive on the un-suspected and they get their meet hooks in.
Unfortunately I know know one individual that got fleeced by a Nigeria scam on a dating site. She let her heart be her guide and paid out thousands of dollars before she was notified of the scam by a investigating firm. Ya say it couldn't happen to you ? She has a PHD. The scammers are also very intelligent and many hold degrees in something as well. Or they are attending college while scamming. It IS NOT going to stop as the land of Nigeria is still of the old west scenario and lawlessness is the order and while all crimes are committed imaginable, the scam thing is not a priority. Or could it be political ?
