PoF.com / Plenty of Fish Dating apps

POF is a Canadian made CHINESE owned (as are all MATCH.COM related dating sites) company. Imagine that. All the data American singles provide them... In addition to the data security issues. Think about China's one child policy. And their resultant population decline (which is serious). Which would put them at a huge disadvantage internationally. Unless, they could undermine the birth rates of their competitors. THINK ABOUT IT.

POF is mostly fake profiles. POF does nothing to remove them or stop them from attempting to scam Americans. This shows a blatant negligence and outright disregard for the right of their patrons. Male and female.

Even cooler. A scam they perpetrate on women and men. Is the "like" scam. Women and men have to pay to see who likes them. Any man/woman worth his/her salt will look at a prospect's profile. Prior to liking them. In order to avoid nonsense. The thing is. If you compare the "meet me" section to the profile section. You'll notice a curious correspondence. The left swipe X on the "meet me" section is in the exact spot of the "like heart" on the profile section. Which has resulted in me accidentally liking countless women. The kicker though? Once you like someone you cannot remove it (even if an accident). Which makes the person on the other side of this think they have all kinds of admirers. I think this is super shady. And, done purposely to connive folks into paying to see who it is that (ACCIDENTALLY) liked them.

IT IS ALL A SCAM. ALL AROUND. AS ARE ALL THE DATING SITES.

And they are undermining American dating relations. Dividing us. In order subvert our population and eventually conquer us.

Desired outcome: SHUT THEM DOWN. ONLY USE AMAERICAN DATING APPS THAT ARE FREE AND DO NOT CHARGE ANY MONIES WHATSOEVER! THAT IS THE ONLY ETHICAL WAY.

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish Poor quality and amateurish organization

I too had a lot of contacts send messages that they like me and some were texted directly to my account by POF. But when l tried to contact them there instantly disappeared and was unable to reach them. Also l got a lot of scammers on site who were fake accounts and questionable texts that didn't have proper grammar to understand them. All they wanted was your email! Then l got women from Russia and Africa trying to get my attention. Second to last, the site asks too many personal questions that's best left within a date frame of mind. Lastly, you cannot recover your password because the algorithm will not send a requested change to your email. One last item to note: You can't get a refund on your credit card.

Desired outcome: Resolve closing my account and getting a refund.

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish PoF sends emails from women who say they like me but I am unable to contact them.

Numerous times I receive emails from PoF saying that certain women like me and to contact them go to this link.
When I finally find that person (not always straight forward) I find that when I try to send a message to her I get the message that that person is looking for a different type of person or that person has got their messaging turned off.
This has happened over many months and PoF seem unable to fix the problem.
Most recently it happened yesterday and I sent a message to the Help section on Plenty of Fish Support . Within 16 minutes I got an email from them saying that my Password had been changed! Who changed my Password just 16 mins after I sent them an email complaining (again) about their poor service? So I advised them that I had not changed my Password and I asked them to send me an email to enable me to change my password. I am still waiting . . . . . . .
There is NO OTHER WAY TO CONTACT THESE PEOPLE! This is completely unsatisfactory! When do I get my email?

Desired outcome: Ability to change my Password.

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish I can’t send a message. It disappears

I can't send a message. When I bring up what I sent it's blank and says enter your message. This has been going on for 3 days. These men will think I'm not interested. I've tried everything. They have my log in information, now they say it doesn't match. You can write until your fingers bleed but it will not let you submit. I wouldn't give this site not even 1 star it sucks so bad. I wish I could get a message to them to fix it as everything else works but it's impossible. I send a message to a man. When I bring him up the message is gone. Enter again and the same thing. They think I'm not interested. 3 days of this crap. I am upgraded and I want 3 additional days for their screw up. I don't have any viruses. This is their mess. I want this fixed ASAP!

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish PoF keeps deleting my photo even it's a clear face ones and ignoring naked offensive photos posted by some members especially from women.

For more than occasion PoF deleting my photos clear face personal photos some with my racing uniforms with my dog and so on. There's no proper or legit explanation for PoF staff behaviour. On the other hand they allowing alot of very offensive naked picture from females members.

This is a clear discriminating behaviour directed against me personally and should be stopped otherwise I will hold PoF responsible in human right tribunal proceedings

Desired outcome: Stop this discriminating behaviour immediately

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish Liar about marital status

Dear Sirs,

I am reporting Eric/Richard L Cooper, screen name coopinphx on plenty of fish and other dating sites, recently on Wechat the Chinese social media. He approaches women and engage sexual activities. I dated him and made very clear from the beginning that I was seeking a long term relationship and marriage. He lied to me that he was divorced but still doing business with his ex but I found out that he is still married to his wife as of today. I have photos, emails and texts to proof. He dates multiple women at the same time and lies to everyone of them. He is also very verbally, emotionally abusive. I know a few women who he has dated and the complaints are the same. He even borrowed money from someone he dated and promised high returns with only a fraction of what he promised after the promised investment dates were long overdue. He even threatened me to hurt me when I called him out. Please let me know if you need any pictures. The man on the left in the picture.

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish Big time scammer

FILIP248578
This person is a serious scammer. He contacted me March 12, 2021 and we were back and forth on your site for about 2 weeks when he encouraged me to quit the POF site and chat via email and text and telephone calls on WhatsApp. This man claims to be from Sacramento, CA but currently working in Izmir, Turkey as the lead Engineer on a Solar Energy Project. Everything was going well until April 14th when I get an email telling me that his work site had had an explosion and three of his workers were hospitalized and that the Turkish government was charging him and asking for approximately $60,000 to cover the cost of specialized care for the injured workers. He indicated he was unable to access his bank account because Turkey had such crazy laws, but he had contacted a friend in Germany who owed him a favor and this person was going to transfer the required funds to him in Turkey. One week later, another email indicated this friend was unable to raise the funds and at this point he asked me to transfer the funds from his account to his lawyer in Istanbul. I went along with this, so he sent me all the information, but when he appointed time for me to do the transfer I simply told him I would not get involved in his funding request. By now I was aware something "fishy" was going on. I was getting reports every day about the condition of the injured workers and how the Turkish government had given him 21 days to come up with the money, or he would face grave consequences. On approximately day 13/14 because he had not come up with any payment, he was appended for a weekend but he talked his way out. This was when he started asking me to send him money. When the 21 days expired he was apprehended again but his lawyer managed to raise $17,000 by selling the car he was using, so he was again released on the understanding that he had to come up with the balance at which time they would release his Passport and he would be free to travel back to the US. He started to pressure me to send money and sent me the banking information of an account in Cornwall, Ontario that supposedly was his lawyer's Canadian banking info. I agreed to transfer money, but had no intention of doing so. By now I was really playing the game with him. I faked a personal emergency that required me to travel out of province and told him I would have to put the transfer of funds on hold. This was when he began to express his profound love for me and how we were meant to be together and of course being together meant marriage, because he has such old fashioned principles. When I told him that this sudden commitment was too overwhelming for me and I was not ready to talk about marriage, he seemed to change his tactics. I finally pulled the plug when I told him on May 31 that there was no way I would ever give him money. I have not heard from him since.

Desired outcome: he needs to be removed from the Plenty of Fish Dating App before someone falls for his scamming game

PoF.com / Plenty of Fish Membership Revoked Due to False Complaint/ FEES LOST

I signed up for the $81.00 POF membership and not 2 weeks after being activated someone filed a false claim of racism against me. Possibly due to the fact that I am a TRUMP supporter and a Conservative Republican. Customer Service at POF revoked my membership, closed my profile, kept my money and refused to return my calls and emails. I'll be glad when the FTC shuts these POS's down.

Desired outcome: Close down POF and stop the scamming of people trying to actually meet someone for a relationship.
