Russia Websites

[Gentleman Travel]

I have been playing around on this site a bit and it looks like it might be a good place to meet foreign girls in western cities.

Many of the girls there who now live in my city seem to be Eastern European or Latin American.

Many list a wide age range for men they want to meet. So they may be open to sponsorship arrangements or other incentives.

However, these might all be scammers. Too early to tell.

Anyone have views on the usefulness of Badoo as a prospecting system in Russia?

I recently was persuaded to join the site to converse with a girl who preferred it to Mamba.

I guess it is better than Facebook, because it features some dating information (age, location, sometimes language skills) but overall it does not look great as an East-West dating site.

And it is filled with all kinds of Facebook-like crap.

Anyone with real experience on Badoo?

Just visited Moscow for 5 days and thought I share my experience with you, tried 4 different Russian escort agencies / independents all completely shocking either fake pictures or just interested in ripping me off. So gave up until talking to a barman in the hotel who gave me the details of a Western agency / directory that has offices and escorts in Russia. Gave them a ring and checked their site, it was a different world Victoria was so helpful organised my escort, my dinner reservation and basically my whole evening and the escort was stunning, had the time of my life and cost was the same as the local agencies but the class was out of this world. Worth trying them next time your in Russia or any where in Europe. Here is the link.

Hello! I know that Mamba is flooded with fake girls. As much as there are real girls. Has anyone ever attempted to meet with one of the 'Top-100' girls? Or, any of the super hot VIP girls? I'm just curious as I typically pass right over them thinking they are all fake and not worth the effort. Thoughts / comments?

The "top" mamba girls are the least likely to meet foreigners IMO. They already have dozens of outrageously wealthy locals at their feet begging to please them.

Naturally, I had to upgrade to VIP in order to have any reasonable search facility.

VIP status is IMO mandatory, it sends the right message. The message that you are not a stingy and useless foreigner not even able able to spend 20$ to stand out in the crowd.

I also sometimes offer VIP to some girls (younger ones, usually broken students with who I have built a good attraction) , it doesn't ensure their loyaulty of course, but they have always been highly grateful, and never forgot to write me from time to time even if I haven't sent messages for a while.

Raising your profile is a good idea. I always do it. It allows to a girl who intends to visit your city (or who have an interest in it) to find you immediatly. I've been contacted many times by girls planning to visit Paris.

Probably not really news to anyone here, but I thought I would just report a recent experience with Mamba.

I recently reactivated my profile, having had a longish fallow period of EE travel.

Naturally, I had to upgrade to VIP in order to have any reasonable search facility.

But then I found I was 52, 000+ on the list of men."Women have trouble finding your profile" was a repeated warning.

I went along like this for a week, just proactively targetting women generated by my search, but my profile was not getting any hits or unsolicited attention.

So today I clicked one of the "raise your profile" options. Costs $1. The difference is huge!

First, it bumps me to the very top of the list, then I start to get all kinds of "views" and messages from girls, some of whom would not have shown up on my searches, but are highly desirable.

Of course, there is also a certain amount of unwanted attention from profiles of hags and dogs.

And also, as the hours tick by, my profile sinks deeper and deeper down the list.

At some point I will need to reinvest if I want to maintain my visibility, but I will do that sparingly.

Of course, whether you need visibility depends on what you are looking for, and how open you are to variation on your criteria.

Something to keep in mind is that many girls profiles are not up front about what they are looking for (surprise!).

For example, sponsorship. If you search based on "I want to find a sponsor" you are likely to get mostly pros, whether pink profiles or not.

However, many "ordinary" girls are also looking for sponsors, and they are more likely what you are looking for also.

So they need to be able to find you.

But it certainly seems worthwhile to spend a few bucks in the run-up to any visit to generate a few new leads.

I thought I would cross-post this from a related thread.

Anyone have suggestions for alternative sites?

LL has gone downhill. It is only the shadow of what it used to be. There is much better "East meets West" sites currently.

Which ones please?

I haven't used LL for a while, but it certainly was pretty good a couple of years ago. At least for meeting "real" women.

The beauty of it is that it was focused on east meets west, as opposed to Mamba, which has a lot of girls, but only a fraction are interested in western men.

I did and got the code immediately.

You simply have to enter your mobile so:

+AAXXXYYYYYYY.

+ outland

AA land code one, two or three digits.

XXX the full mobile net (usually three digits)

YYYYYYY (mobile number usually seven digits)

No space, no brackets

IT

Yes, I also never get the activation code. I have done the hp number correctly (abroad / not Russian). So there's a email that because I did not complete registration, my profile cancelled or so. Reply to mamba, but failed.

So, I joined Mambo. Ru.

I received the status confirmation and off I went. After noting several ladies of interest, I realized that I needed to purchase coins in order to communicate with the various ladies. No problem.

I purchased 25 Euro worth of coins. Not a bad price. I sent out about 125 "emails" and received back nearly a 50% response. GREAT. Many telephone numbers, a few private emails which I wrote to and received additional pictures and detailed info of services.

Here comes the Kick.

36 hours into my PAID membership, my account is BLOCKED. I wrote the support staff, no response. I wrote the billing company. They responded back that "Mambo. Ru can stop service at any time for any reason. Sorry."

Any body had this happen to them?

Any thoughts on how to un-block account?

Thanks.

This happened to me also once. Luckily I wrote don't the most precious phone numbers.

I told the story to my credit card company, and they got all my money back.

It is strange, but Mamba does not have any form of costumer service. But the site is a goldmine for me.

Sounds intriguing, Prosal.

Personally, I like the illusion (or delusion if you like) of "the chase" regardless of success or not.

Something like this could be a 'little or no obligation' way of meeting strangers of the opposite sex for a little reconnoitring with a view to future fun and games.

Seconded. I also like dating Russian women, even if it doesn't lead (immediatly) to sex. They are usually great and witty conversationalists. And as you say, the thrill of the "game" is sometimes more captivating than the (often foregone) conclusion. I kind of see it as a chess game.

Found the link BTW:

Just discovered that there was a (new?)"dating" tool on mamba, that is a place organized as a calendar and by city, and where girls look for coffee, dining or clubbing dates (and where men offer coffee, dining or clubbing dates for that matter).

Seems useful. Anyone used it already?

But I see where you're coming from on this one, old boy.

A lot of the women on the page you've provided are of that 30+ vintage that you and I have harvested, from time to time...

About my last post.

Found the page (dating requests calendar) through a girl's profile. On her page, she has a "dating" space with a link, just above her "interests" questionaire. But I have nothing of this on my page, and I can't find any link to this tool on the mamba front page.

Weird.
