NaughtyDate.com review

The online dating portal NaughtyDate.com makes a positive initial impression. On the landing page, we see an image of an attractive woman. This website is available in more than just one country. At the top of the homepage, we see this site has singles from the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. So the number of members must be huge if this site can afford to be online all over the world.

What the site offers at least sounds great, too. On the landing page, we read about easy matchmaking. The community of the site appears open-minded and chatty. Also – thanks to the large number of members – the chances of dating someone appear good too.

On the landing page, we read some hard facts about the site. At the foot of the page, FAQs are shown. One question concerns the use of the site and whether it is free. We read there about free basic membership, which allows users a lot of latitude. So it seems paid membership is also available, but not required to use the website.

Moreover, we read some testimonials on the landing page. Former and current users seem happy with the portal. It seems a great choice for singles in the US and other countries it serves. In general, the website appears a reputable choice. It is reasonably transparent, which is good. In our experience, transparency is the first sign of a good choice. This site offers a lot of information. It also allows eclectic dating options which include milf-dating, Asian-dating and many more.

The site operator is Apricot Digitals LLC, which is based in Sofia, Bulgaria. We did some research. We found quite a lot of reviews on the internet about this company. The reputation of the operator turns out not to be the best.

Yes, the online dating portal NaughtyDate.com is a scam. It uses fake chat and is a subscription rip-off. The profiles are fake. This website uses fictitious profiles to lure new members into a trap. These profiles are not marked as fake. They are controlled by bots or fake chat operators. Now, moderation is not mentioned in the legal information. So legal proof from the terms and conditions is missing. But we can still prove by other means that it takes place.

Immediately after our registration, we received several messages. But we created a profile with no picture or a single item of useful information about ourselves. So there is no good reason for anyone to contact us. We then did some research on the internet. We found many reviews from former users. They had the same experience. Their impression was that all profiles are fake and used to lure new members into a scam.

Reading messages is free. But if we want to reply, costs will arise. Trial membership was even offered while we registered. This is obviously a clear sign of a rip-off. We advise you never to purchase anything on the internet before seeing the actual item on offer. Anyway, the deadline for terminating any kind of membership is 72 hours in advance. In principle, this deadline is reasonably fair. But trial membership only lasts for one day. In practice, it cannot be terminated in time and will be extended to a monthly paid subscription.

Additionally, the operator makes the cancellation of any subscription difficult. So termination requests made in time will be ignored or simply declined. Deadlines will be missed and a subscription for expensive premium membership will be renewed again and again. The operator is well-known for this cheeky trick. We found quite a lot of reviews about this company, which  runs numerous other more dating sites.

The process of registration is simple and completed in the blink of an eye. As usual, the first step is to indicate our gender and sexual orientation. It is possible to register as a woman or man looking for either women or men. So, gay and heterosexual matchmaking are available here. This of course ensures that the widest range of matchmaking is included. But as this is a casual dating website, a little more selectivity would be appreciated. Other casual dating portals allow registering as a couple and bisexual matchmaking, for example.

The next steps require us to enter our age, a valid e-mail address and a password. This is all the information needed to create a profile here. This of course makes the process of registration fast and easy. But requiring us to include a bit more information would be good. Admittedly, a casual dating website does not need an accurate matchmaking system. But even so, our profile is completely empty.

Before we can visit the website, there is one more step to complete. This is not the verification of our account. We receive an offer for premium membership. Actually this takes the form of cheap trial membership which runs for one day and costs only 0.99 USD. What could possibly go wrong? But our research shows this is a cheeky trap. As a general principle, never make a purchase before seeing what is actually on offer.

We are given the option of adding more details to our profile. We can also upload a profile picture. But neither option is compulsory. We continue with an empty profile. As we see it, fast-track registration is a trick. The website does in fact give us the opportunity to add further details to our profile, but why not make this obligatory?

We skipped the option of payment for trial membership. We also chose not to enter any more information into our profile. By the way, it is not a good thing that we could forgo this option. Profiles with no information lower the quality of a website. And we did not have to verify our account either. We were able to visit the members´ area without verifying our e-mail address. This is another bad sign. Verification provides one guarantee for the safety of other users. It helps guard against fake profiles. It is also a great help against spammers and scammers.

Increasingly, this website fails to make a good impression. And there is a lot more to mention. But before we address clear hints of a scam, we would like to describe the portal. At first sight, the website seems good. The design of the members´ area is modern and appealing. Thanks to this, we have a good overview of the site. We are able to see all the profile pictures. Members who are active are marked with a green circle on their profile picture.

The profiles look good. All profiles show attractive women located quite close to us. This of course creates a promising impression. We could assume that we will meet plenty of women easily. It is possible to visit each profile to find out more. On the one hand, this is good from the point of view of discovering whether a particular profile could be a match. On the other, we have still not verified our profile. So anyone can create a profile here and thus view all the personal information of every single member.

But this makes only minimal sense. The profiles on the website are fake. This website uses fictitious profiles. A fake profile shows a fictitious person with whom a date in real life is not possible. But fake profiles are not marked as fake. They are used to luring us into a trap. Right after registration, we received quite a lot of messages. This is a clear sign of fake chat. Reading these messages is free of charge. But to reply, costs will arise.

Extract from the terms and conditions from the NaughtyDate.com website. Current status of the terms and conditions as of April 12, 2022.

Your payment will be shown on your card statement as www.naughtydate.com Unless canceled, your 1-day trial membership plan will automatically convert to our monthly package after the end of your 1-day trial period.

Registration is free. But during registration, trial membership is offered. It is possible to skip the payment. However, this is a clear hint of a rip-off with a subscription trap. Never make a purchase before seeing the actual product, especially when costs will arise for a subscription that is renewed automatically.

Anyway, after skipping this payment during registration, we are given basic membership. This kind of membership allows users a fair amount of freedom. It would be a great offer if the website were not a cheeky scam. It is possible to see all the profiles and their pictures. We were able to use the search function. And we could visit each profile to read more information. This is incidentally even possible with a non-verified account.

Furthermore, free basic membership allows users to read messages. Within a minute of registering, we received several messages from other members. This is a clear sign of moderated chat. As we see it, it is a part of the trick that we were able to read these messages. The messages lure us into a trap.

Trial membership offered while we register will be held out again later. It is the cheapest choice and appears a perfect opportunity to explore this site. Trial membership lasts for one day and only costs 0.99 USD. Moreover, premium membership options lasting one week, one month and three months are offered too.

Premium membership for one week costs 0.56 USD per day. The 1-month premium membership option costs 1.38 USD per day. Premium membership for three months costs 0.77 USD per day. Payments can be made via credit or debit card. Your choice of card does not affect the price you pay.

Now there are various additional aspects to mention, the subscriptions. First, their prices are somewhat confusing. Premium membership for three months appears to be an economical choice. 0.77 USD per day seems a small sum to pay, but in the final analysis it amounts to 69.90 USD. And these costs will recur. This is the second point we would like to draw attention to: the operator makes the process of termination difficult. Consequently, the termination deadline will be repeatedly missed. The expense of 69.90 USD will be incurred repeatedly as cancellation is either declined or just ignored.

Last but not least, trial membership is a cheeky trap. It runs for one day, but the deadline for cancelling each type of subscription is 72 hours in advance. Ultimately, it is not physically possible to effect cancellation in time. This is the website’s cheeky scam. Subsequently, the operator will make termination a complex process.

The online dating portal NaughtyDate.com is a rip-off. All profiles on the website are fake, according to reviews on the internet. We can endorse this impression based on the experience of former users. We also received a lot of messages right after registering, which is a clear sign of fake chat. But legal proof of moderation from the terms and conditions is missing. However, all signs point to moderated fake profiles. Either bots are used or fake chat operators are employed.

It is possible to read all the messages we receive. This is a part of the trick. Costs will arise only if we want to reply. Several versions of premium membership are on offer. And trial membership is offered too: even as early as during registration. This of course implies a scam with a subscription trap right from the outset. Anyway, trial membership runs for one day. But the deadline for terminating it is 72 hours in advance. So it is physically impossible to cancel it in time.

The same deadline applies to every other kind of subscription. The deadline terms may sound fair. But the site operator makes termination difficult. Notifications of cancellation will be simply ignored or declined without any reason. So premium membership will be extended again and again. The operator of the portal is Apricot Digitals LLC, which is based in Sofia, Bulgaria.
