I am shocked at all of the bitterness and anger from people on most of these reviews. I would like to add some balance on the plus side here. Personally, i had a very good experience on Match in 2003, where i met up with a wonderful man within about 2 weeks after joining the site. We had instant chemistry and subsequently became a happy couple in a committed relationship for the next 5 years. Unfortunately, the relationship ended, but it did make we feel hopeful about meeting someone on Match again, which i recently joined.
i guess now i am forewarned about some of the scams that are out there, but i still feel hopeful. it's just another way to try to meet someone (and i guess i was extremely lucky the first time around.) Keep it positive and good luck!
