Cheated online?

i have been cheated once...

Yes and no. I work from home, so I've been scammed a lot when I was first starting in this business. I am now more selective and read the terms of service very carefully for any program in which I choose to participate. If it isn't a program, I check references.

That has happened to me in the past and I do have a hard time trusting people online, especially on a dating site. That is why I stopped using the dating sites to begin with. I would not completely stop trusting people online but would just be more cautious. I would not send money to someone on the net. It was very upsetting when it happened but there was nothing I could do about it. There are a lot of people out there trying to find ways to get money from people.

Very good topic.Its really hard to tell who or what a person is online.I am very careful I wouldnt send money without meeting the person

it is really hard to trust people online or not. there are really fake people trying to get you to like them, for you to feel pity at them, and it is all part fo their game plan. better be careful so as you will not fall into their trap.

i've been cheated once but in online biz.. i lost much of dolars...

well i am not really into internet dating not even chatting since i feel that this things are very high succeptible to being get cheated or fraud. so if you are that person that easily believes i say you better not go on such dating or having to go eyeballing as they say it. not unless you really know or feel that the other person can be trusted but most likely that for me isnot trustable at all. greetings. : )

I would be very careful and cautious of anyone I met online because the persona that they present may not be like they actually are at all and there are plenty of guys out there looking to take advantage of a trusting woman. I am sure there are women as well, taking advantage of men they meet online.

I would have not got so personal until i met but I would go to police for fraudulent actions

I would be quite upset and hurt by that, it's a disgusting thing to do. I don't think I would be handing any money over though without meeting the person, and if it were a large amount of money I would want to go to one of the doctor's appointments with them. If they consider me a good enough friend to fund their operation, then they should consider me a good enough friend to stand by their side and support them emotionally as well!

tooooo many such frauds and cheats! online or even offline. too many such cases now here in China, money, time, feeling are being cheated finally.

I would never risk anything like that on line as it is to dangerous and I am very weary of it

To be honest, I think I don't trust people easily, be it from online or offline. I think humans have the tendency to be different or change when it comes to money issues. I've been cheated of my money because of real life friends.. so what makes online friends any difference? I like to keep my money with me now.. won't be such a kind soul anymore.

i have been cheat once , $2000

this is cliche, sorry to say that, I'm too old to be cheated by this kind of trick. never trust people online totally, be on guard all the time.

i can't stop trusting people cause that is all about the person that lied to you.If you noticed the person properly right from onset,you should have noticed his/her target which is MONEY.I'm in a relationship too which i happened to meet my woman via dating site and we've been together for almost 4yrs now.I never for one day requested for money from her though i had some trying times but never asked her for MONEY.We'll be meeting together very soon anyways.

In general, I try not to get too close feelings wise to people, for the honest reason that you just don't know who you're talking to online. Not that it happened to me, but the thought of someone I'm talking to and expressing my feelings for, turning out to be like a 40 year old man, just utterly creeps me out. My friend has had people on dating sites lie about their age to her, so it's hard to trust people. They've either made themselves younger when they were older and vice versa. I did have an online relationship when I was about 15 year olds with a guy online. We probably lived about an hour and a half from each other, but never got to meet up. We "dated" online for about 8 months and then in the 8th month mark, he told me he got a girlfriend (I'm guessing it was a real life girlfriend) about 4 months ago, cause he didn't think I loved him anymore. It was really lame, but I was really sad at the time. Now I just think about it and laugh hysterically. Cause that's all you really can do. I think about the letters we'd write to each other, or talk for hours on the phone and argue who loves who more. Really, it's comedic. Look at me, I just never shut up, hahaha. But I like your questions, they are quite good.

i didnt cheated online cause it wasnt cheating. she knew and she did that. just for excitment moments online just for fun. but its hard ot handle. and you eunice? did ya cheatead? :P by the way love ure name

yep. iv been talking to this guy for like 7 months. call each other. send each others gift. then one wednesday morning he wrote me a letter and told me he wanna stop our communication..bec. he met someone and started dating. and our internet realtionship is nothing real... stuff stuff... funnyn thng is. he started calling and writing me again after 3 months. when he and the girl broke up? duh.

Well I think that you should be choosy who you meet online of course as an adult we all know that. But Ive had good and bad expeinces online so I think that it all depends.
