I receive about 60% military guy emails. So far, ALL have been scammers. I found a website that asks for the name and birth date of the military person in question. This is nothing that a person would not find out after a few emails or the first date. I'm not asking for a SSN after all. Either the guy does not want to tell me his birthday or he deletes his profile after I ask. lol

If you are an honest military guy and proud of serving your country, would you not want to be honest with your possible future wife?
The one comical response I got was the he was a "spy" and would not be listed under any govt agency. ROFL Then what are you doing on this public site? LOL

Any other ladies out there having these issues?
How do you deal with them? Just delete and/or block them?

Well honestly this is the internet I am not giving out my last name and date of birth to anyone til I have been seeing them for a while.. Sorry.. I also don't expect them to give me theirs either.


Usually all you have to do is run the pictures through an image search and it will pop up on who the picture really belongs to.

I block... report... delete..
end of story.
