I never receive such scammer matches before. Hahahaha. Dont know wanna say I envious or sad cos they look me no up.

Here’s couple of hints, previously their story is that they’re Malaysian working in China or Singapore etc. Nowadays they use Malaysia phone numbers, even have instagram account with stolen pictures. The chat are pretty decent, sharing stories etc. within a week, they will tell you about those money games or investment or trading they been up to and earned decent amount of money. That’s a red flag, when you questioning them about it they’ll just spin around or accuse you being sensitive. Saying “You changed so fast, i don’t know what’s wrong with sharing experiences about making money.” etc.

Long story short, don’t get too attached first on those matches. Once they start talking about money or investment or trading, you can block them because they only want to scam you.

Yeaps but nowadays we have something new, Amway agents. They first will seem very interested to talk to you. Asking all your interests and all, then suddenly say want to just meet new friends and come out for a drink / food. End up, they want you to join their Amway.

That’s definitely something what my insurance friends will do

I too oftentimes am puzzled by how unfathomable his replies appear. Perhaps I'm shallow and naive and therefore ill-equipped to dissect and discern the so-called knowledge so casually dropped by his replies. Or he's just trying to string together a series of random words to make himself sound sophisticated, but actually leaving behind a hurricane's wreck of unintelligible quasi-pseudo-philosophical mumble-jumble masquerading as words of wisdom.

Your guess is as good as mine.

You’re not alone, his reply always “I’ve done this and I won” or “You just a coward” even though we told him about our trauma due to previous experiences.

Maybe the kind MLM pseudo-philosophical salesman talk would work on a certain subset of women who would fall  over themselves thinking the person some suave international man of mystery….

Anyway, no foul committed, no harm done. Just some friendly forum pondering by puzzled readers, that’s all.

Most probably, each time we post something in CC he be here sharing his “success” of hitting random girls, train station, mall, parks or events. Instead helping or sharing useful information he’ll bash us, like his comment above. Logically speaking, we dudes better off not talking to some random girls UNLESS asking for directions or anything important. Nowadays people are paranoid about almost anything, that unknowingly could’ve put us into serious trouble.

Lol wait until you see his comments about "girls just looking to get fuck", I kid you not again he shared his "success" on banging multiple girls from multiple races. Dude literally treats girls like some kind of sex object, what a disgrace to man...

Having used CMB for quite some time now, I'd say that this app is definitely making a lot of money from us. It'd purposely hide some of the ppl who have liked us even though we are paid users.

I also noticed that 70% of the guys on this app are scammers so why bother paying just to see scammers liking our profile? Lol

As for the other 30% of the users who are actual humans, some of them already have a gf/ wife or just looking for ONS/ attention/ validation. Dating apps are no longer serving their purpose anymore. Can't wait to delete this app once my subscription has ended.

Personally i did encountered few scammers with fake profile, i'll list it.

1. Pig butcher scam - First few chat all get to know each other, then they will share you their "investment" scheme.
2. Wine scam - I believe you saw this kind of scam from social media and even LYN here, matched foreign lady like china or taiwan. They will insist to go dine in their "friend" place, order shitty wine then you have to pay for it like RM1000+ per bottle.

All these scammer, they do have social media profile but only got few friends, few post with 1 or 2 likes, followed by 300+ people but they only follow 10 people.

I did dated a few legit lady, sadly it didn't work as we both not into each other.

I hope you've deleted this dating app. Using it is a complete waste of time. Better meet ppl in real life.

But most men don't know how to approach women in real life anymore these days 😅

Try speed dating, you got better chance. Every men and women there are looking for partner, so you don’t have to worry about “sorry i got boyfriend or girlfriend” situation. Pretty or not, handsome or not, i would say lower your expectations for physical appearance.

Who was the organiser for the one that you attended previously? Was it Take The Leap? Would appreciate it if you could share more abt yr speed dating experience.

Yea that be one or them, there few others good organiser too. All similar activities, drinks and foods and get to know each other. If you thought about scoring on the first event, that depends on your luck. Some men and women I met there attended a few speed dating, even like 8-9 times from different organiser and events but yet to find the right one. I personally scored a few, less than 10 womens after like attended 3 events. Now seeing 1 and we both kind of enjoying each other company, have a deep long conversation when we hang out. She’s beautiful enough to me and she’s smart, good sense of humour, curious and funny.

If you’re asking for advice, it be best that you just be honest about what are you looking for. For example me I’m looking for a women that take good care of herself, health and fit, took general hygiene seriously. Sadly no overweight woman, say or judge me whatever you want but those are my requirements. Try make some friends with the ladies, be nice and polite with them, treat them with respect, possibly try to have some conversation after asking them about what they do for living and where they stay etc.

Again, lowered down your expectations for super hot ladies. Oh there’s 1 or 2 women that’s hot but then you be having some competition if you interested on them, some dudes there does earn 5 figures driving nice cars and they’re there to look for lifetime partners. Any how most of them men and women looks decent, like you and me.

Dress casual smart, iron your clothes, wear clean socks because some place needs you to remove your shoes, of course clean your shoes too. Fragrance? Just little bit, don’t have to spray the whole body like you’re trying to cover the smell of a dead body. Cut your finger nails, tidy up your hair or go to a barber. Mustache and beard are find if you trim nicely, some barber offer this kind of service too. Try do the Tony Starks style, looks cool to me.

Good luck and shutdown that shy or introverts until the event ends.

Lol some of your advice don't apply to me coz I'm a girl, not a guy 🤣 Honestly I'm planning to score on the 1st event coz those events are really expensive. The one that I wanted to attend is RM125. I keep asking myself what if I pay that much only to meet up with men who are obese and/ or bald? Or worse, boring? I have these doubts in my head coz u keep telling me to lower my expectations 😅
*
Oh pardon me, i thought you’re a dude. Score on the first round, depends on your luck. Overweight, old and bald yes those man be there as well. I really feel sorry for them, knowing their chances of scoring super low to zero. It’s a gamble, up to you whether you want to gamble or not. Try it for this, then maybe after few months you try again. You don’t know if you’ll find your prince charming if you don’t at least try, i assume you look great and there be quite few dudes be interested to know you from the event.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Assuming that u met 15 girls in one event, was it tiring for u when u had to introduce yrself n talk abt yr hobbies 15 times?
*
Yep, talking the same thing with 15 ladies. After that i’ll just start a different topic, start sharing stories about places we traveled before or funny/weird things we encountered in our workplace etc. We even shared some pictures we took, just to spice things up.

Then speed dating would be suitable for you. It wasn't for me. Cause if the guy/girl speaks for like 4 minutes, not much time left for the other aide. So kinda of hard for other person to judge cause no info given.

I was doing the talking and girls weren't trying to talk or even make an effort.

I appreciate talking for like 2H with the girls. It let me know if they are potential good partners Vs 5 minutes. That's why I turn back to dating apps.

Wouldn't disagree with you about the short time of conversation, lots of times really potong stim when we have a good conversation but that also that's i score 1 or 2 because we want to catch up. Not making an effort, yea some ladies does showing this. Probably not interested by appearance, can't blame them.
