Beware of Asian "Let's Get To Know Each Other Slowly" Scam
Recently, on Seeking, I have noted & experienced a scam by Asian women. I don't know the end result yet, however, it's extremely scammy. Others may have already experienced this & have been further into the scam. Currently, this has happened with about 4 women. The same base scenario is below. But here's how it works:
Connection: An Asian woman with pictures that seem real, will reach out to you via Seeking.
Off Platform: Either they quickly get off the platform and are quite willing to chat on regular text, WhatsApp, Telegram. Sometimes even Snapchat. They then end up deleting their account, so they can focus "solely on you".
Their Story: Each of them have a range of stories around the same general idea.
1. They want to develop a relationship slowly with you, because their last relationship, they caught their ex, supposedly on camera. (which is why they won't do video chat sometimes).
2. They will take pictures & send them to you daily, showing what there eating, going to the gym. Say they post them to Instagram, but won't give you the link.
3. They say they have a business, usually in the "design industry", or they work for as a "Designer" in some field. Designer of Jewelry, or designer of clothes. But they can't give out the business name or the business doesn't have a website. They say they only work with Royals and top celebrities, got to keep their clients privacy. LOL. I show them 5 people online who started a jewelry or clothing brand, who are doing extremely well, selling to celebrities. There statements are usually, well our designers make $1 million a year. (I'm like okay, do the math.)
4. They'll talk about how a parent or relative recently died, but there "uncle' or another type of family member taught them about business, and taught them about investing. Specifically about Crypto or currency trading. Weird because they tend to talk about the line "profit of 15% - 25% Saying it multiple times in a conversation is big red flag.
5. They get mad if you don't respond to their messages daily. But, at the same time, won't answer your own questions.
6. "Some" will do a live video chat. However, I believe it to be faked, given that the quality video through WhatsApp is grainy. That's not usually the case w / WhatsApp. I've even done the video feature on seeking. It's actually pretty high quality, & that was between a computer & iPhone during peak hours.
7. At some point, they'll tell you some type of sob-story how they tried to help out their company or their business by taking cash from their "trading account" to help out their employees, and to cover losses during "Covid."
Overall, it's some type of long-term play. I have yet to find the end result. But, currently, I do still communicate w / them to see how far it will end up. But I wanted to reach out to anyone here, if they've experienced this, cause you may have only been contacted by one person. I've got 4 on the hook. One, got angry at me, because she thought I would steal her Instagram account, and she wouldn't give me the link. Because I told her, "you're scared of me receiving a live photo" but you create photos & videos to supposedly a million followers who don't know you at all." She was hella pissed, and was like, and then the broken English sentences started coming.
Anyone experience this?

Prepaid Card for membership
Has anyone had any luck recently using a prepaid card like Vanilla card online? I did last year setting the billing address to an actual address. But I've heard they may not be allowing that anymore.

Secret Benefits vs Seeking
I switched over to SB for a few months. Some limited success at the beginning. The cost structure is annoying bc you have to unlock profiles to communicate for credits. With Seeking I find myself messaging tons of chicks and having many go nowhere convos. On SB less convos since you essentially have to pay for every one. But I like the verification videos and won't message anyone who isn't verified. Same mix of girls. SB system seems to be designed more to get right to it. I've had meetups same day and within a few days of communication. I haven't had the same weeks long back and forth. I think it's because all the views into the system are based on latest activity so when people appear in your feed they are active.
There are a lot of girls with GPS though. I'm highlighting a few. The first one was also on Seeking and could be had for 4-500. In SB she asked me for $3 K for the first meet up. The second asked for 1500. Crazy.
May switch back to Seeking as I'm running out of credits and there's a 25% off code SEP2022 V25.
Seems like most of the girls on SB are clearer on what I'm looking for though. Decisions decisions.
