During the past couple weeks, I have been getting emails such as:
He's a male, and his text talks of looking for a male..yea, some bad english in there so I'm thinking its a scammer..otherwise, why would he be emailing me??? confusing. block, next..

Hi I have found that if there English is bad that odds are they are fakes

This is an international site so not everyone has English as their 1st language

thank you for that reminder..
its true... one email I called him on his english not being his first language and turns out he's arabic..
I need more tolerance, I guess..

I am seeing that, more & more often.
A mistake is a mistake, but not with so any people & with 3-5 letter words.
I check my emails, less & less often.

Their.

I left out the ' m' in the word 'many ' in my post...


Report me.

lol

Hmmm dunno ... English isn't my 1st lingo either .. if my English was so bad that I ended up mailing men saying I was looking for a female ... what's the point of communicating with someone like that?
If someone uses pigeon English, you can't communicate, not really.
I haven't the patience nor time for it. Communication is too important for me in a relationship so if that don't work out ...
That's why I don't get ppl that come here who can barely express themselves to begin with. What's the point? They're better off looking elsewhere where they speak your native tongue.
Of course they might miss out on a green card or someone stupid enough to send them money. I can't help them with either, lol.

If the messages you get are the same, try Googling it. I've sometimes found such messages on sites for non-English speakers, you know, readily copy & paste dating site material that can help them get a green card or at least a foot in the door.

Dang, I talk too much, don't I? LOL

pfffft whatever man
if you got one pic ya stole off internet
no profile write up
your state and city do not match
and the three words in english you send me
are used incorrectly????




hahahahaha I will block ya so fast your head will spin

Only if you plan on dating internationally and building relationships based solely on communication, with people who don't communicate effectively or well in languages you understand.

Well then, since I was scammed several years ago and also found that if THEIR English, Grammar, spelling, or sentence structure is off, they are Fakes. International is a good point however. They are = they're, their = them over there.

Difficult if you are of one nationality and looking for a partner of another nationality. At least some people are trying to communicate in what is for them another language, I would not be too quick to dismiss them. Sadly, since most scammers are located in Africa, everyone using bad English, is more often than not a scammer.
