The social media inspired online dating site FlirtHookup.com tells you on their first page that you can get to know new people in your area. It tells you that this is the best place to flirt, socialize, and chat. It’s obviously set up to look like Facebook but more generic. They are proud of the fact that it only takes one minute to register for free, but they only make it fast so they can snag you as quickly as possible. The warning signs start appearing immediately and you are never sure if you are talking to a genuine person. Read the full review below and you will know why this site will not help you meet anyone.
The Flirt Hook Up Dating Site Scam
It literally takes a minute to sign in, but you should take a minute to read the fine print first. After you enter your e-mail address, password, and birth date; you have to check a box that states that you read the terms and conditions. If you read the paragraph below this, you will see that they admit to sending you messages from computer generated virtual profiles. Having a few fake profiles is not the problem. Every dating site is going to have a few spam profiles here and there, but when the site admits to creating them themselves, that is a site that you cannot trust. You never know if any message that you receive is genuine. I would say that most of the profiles are computer generated because I never made one connection with a real person.
The only thing you can do for free is create a profile, upload a picture, and browse profiles. You aren’t allowed to send or reply to messages, visit unlimited profiles, or watch the XXX movies unless you pay for a membership. The monthly charge to use all the features on the site is $29.95, which is on the high end for a dating site. You can save money by purchasing three months at a time at the rate of $19.98 a month. You are automatically renewed for another 3 months at the end of the billing cycle and charged $59.95. The best value is purchasing 6 months of membership for $16.66 a month. You are automatically renewed for another 6 months at the end of the billing cycle and charged $99.95. Any of these charges will continue to be withdrawn from your account until you cancel your membership manually.
Why would you want to pay so much for a dating site that admits to creating fake profiles? There is real online dating available out there that charge much less than this one does and give you much more results. There are also many legit dating sites that allow you to browse all their profiles to test the site before you decide to pay. This one doesn’t even give you that much. You have to go in blind and they give you no reason to trust them.
Let’s recap. FlirtHookup.com is a casual dating service set up like a social media site that deliberately creates fake profiles and sends you fake communications. You can’t check out the site and test it unless you pay. They sure don’t give you much incentive to join. I hope that, after reading this review, you will know better than to be fooled by this fake site and others like it that use the same tactics.
