Is this thing legit?

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I was motivated to join the Philippine tour because I love Filipino women. I find them incredibly beautiful, down-to-earth and humble. The prospect of meeting a lot of quality women and knowing that AFA was screening them gave me a measure of confidence that I was not meeting a random person and I felt that was important. When you're coming to a foreign country you wanna know that the women are vetted and screened to some degree. And AFA does know a little bit about their profiles and background. I liked that. It made me feel secure. So that was the biggest thing - my desire to meet a great Filipina. The culture is great, they are loving women willing to start families. And I'm a family-oriented man. I just liked their track record of success. They've been around for 27 years and customer service is big. So anytime you had a question or called the head office, they took your call, they called you back, they answered your quesitons. They explained how things worked. They were so well organized based on testimonials. So I was sold. I wanted to take the chance and do it. I didn't know what I was going to get until I showed up. It was a bit of a risk, but it was well worth it. Their successful track record was what really sold me. And the possibility of meeting so many beautiful, amazing women in the course of 2 socials. Where else can you get that? You can't get that anywhere else. You have to show up. All you have to do is walk into a room and you're being introduced to 100 plus women in one night. So if you're a single guy and looking for the right girl, what else can you ask for?

A Foreign Affair - Colombia Tour experience
I just returned from my Barranquilla tour, and if I had to put it into one word; INCREDIBLE! Yami and the entire staff could not have been more helpful with anything we needed. I can not thank them enough! I came to Barranquilla wondering if this was really true. As I stood by the door watching the women come into the socials, I couldnt believe my eyes, they where the most beautiful women I have ever seen! The hotel, theyre staff, the food and your translators were all first class! I came having my doubts and left having meet some great friends and in love with the most wonderful woman I have ever met!!

Russian Organized Crime - Came to US, Married, Tried to Steal Everything I Own After 2 Weeks, Vicious Criminal to the End

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
A Foreign Affair - Russian Organized Crime - Came to US, Married, Tried to Steal Everything I Own After 2 Weeks, Vicious Criminal to the End
I wrote to a girl on A Foreign Affair through their online dating service with letters and calls. She was delivered to my doorstep from Russia. Very young and beautiful and quiet and I asked her to marry me, I take the best care of women and take them to the nicest places. Just before the date she told me she arrived on a fake foreign marriage visa. I foolishly felt she was some kind of victim and made sure she knew I was for real. Only after marrying her did I find out she was not. I married her after knowing her for a few weeks and then after two weeks she said I had to give her everything I own. Her friends who delivered her are Russian Organized Crime, they had 'jacked' someone's phone driving here and then got me in trouble calling her at my number. She said they kept asking her for more money and she showed me obscene photos they took of her raising her dress, the same clothing she for her picture on A Foreign Affair. I told her I wasn't going to fall for a scam and wouldn't give her anything, she was a criminal working for criminals and only 20 years old she needed to go home to her family, I would help. She said she would never go back and she would stay as an illegal alien and I felt she'd last about two weeks with those criminals so I let her stay in my house, seeing her as a victim of human trafficking - what was I to do? I'm a good traditional person just looking for a good wife when none was available here in New Jersey. What a mistake. She's the best looking psycho criminal fraud I've ever heard of and makes children sick to get even and hurt people. She steals whenever and as much as she can and causes me the most terrible harm at every chance, this woman is a Russian terrorist and she yells and screams in Russian on the phone every night. I live in New Jersey and they go along with any woman! I couldn't believe it - that's how the crimninal justice system works in New Jersey to make money - even worse than Russian Organized Crime - they're partners in it and the lawyers say there's nothing they can do. The State of New Jersey with Russian criminals is the worst possible situation in the world - New Jersey is the most corrupt state not just Christie - and New Jersey homes most trafficked woman in the US many of whom are criminals themselves coming from Russia to New York, Brighton Beach like this one with crooked friends/criminals there, and then drive them to New Jersey to take advantage of lonely good men - worst situation in the world having a dangerous vicious criminal in the house and exposing my family to them. I'm going after the State now and hope to wipe clean the trafficking corruption which has led to federal actions since the State of New Jersey judiciary and criminal justice system is the worst and most crooked in the entire United States, the most insolvent state even with the highest taxes and insurance rates in the US so they vampirically leach money from the trafficking victims, and I mean me and family, and the children who are harmed so badly by them all - worst in the world for good traditional people like myself, literal ***.

How much money did it cost you, before you met her? From the first conversation to the actual time you met her?

IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY --- DUE TO US LAW, IMBRA, long about 2006...You must go over there...see her, meet her...date her...get lots and lots of pictures to prove to the government, that you actually know her...then four to eight months later, the visa will be approved...then she can come over to the US...for 90 days...in which time, you can marry...but the women know...they're looking for transparency, and stability...and they're gunshy also...they know it can turn out bad too if the man is an abuser or worse...but...you MUST go there first...and sign her IMBRA form, and she signs yours...then you can decide about moving and so forth!!

#174**** Anonymous, what dream world are you coming from? No, nyea, nye, nyet, negative and wrong.

That's the way it is supposed to work which you're ignorantly repeating without experience or legal background.

You can't even follow the review. Criminals and corruption followed by only more in a never ending nightmare for too many.

Anonymous #169**** I'd bet it was a few hundred dollars for the service and a few mails and then they called the victim and made the arrangements privately after that. The perpetrators likely burned the service and their own criminal `brother´ who set it up after that. Russians go after your family and most vulnerable.

Speaking from my personal experienceby someone with an agenda or someone simply scammed. 1) AFA does not bring women to the US.

AFA arranges trips to meet women in foreign countries. 2) Fiance visas are only granted after proving you have met the prospective bride IN PERSON AND going through extensive interview process with INS; women cannot be legally be "delivered".The extra monies generated through messaging services AFA provides may or may not be legit. AFA provides letters from various women who are on their site. Responding to these unsolicited letters may or may not lead to something more.

AFA is very good at kicking identified scammers off of their site, but they cannot take action unless scammers are identified by members. Also, just because you write to one of these ladies, it doesn't mean she is so desperate that she will settle for any shlub that writes... if you are over 40, overweight and a slob do you really have a shot at a legitimate relationship with an 18yr old "10"? The lady you write to may just not be interested and not write back....

this does not mean AFA is "scamming" you.Speaking from personal experience: I went on a tour to the Ukraine several years back. I had a great time but was realistic about odds of finding "the one". I did meet a really hot neurologist 10 years my junior (she was 31), but she had no desire to leave Ukraine. She did however want me to move there.

Not an option at that point in my life, but an interesting proposition.Bottom line, as long as there are men with unrealistic expectations, there will be women to take advantage. You cant paint AFA services with the "SCAM" brush and not take personal responsibility and manage your own expectations.

Always, be Leary of anyone regardless of her looks and brains! You would have been better off if you had gone back to Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, schwitzerland.

Never get stuck on their beauty.

Stick to the countries that you know speak English. Never go to soldiers clubs, instead frequent clubs where women have great conversation!

Loved the tours

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I learned so much and sincerely cherished the opportunity to meet so many wonderful women. I would gladly recommend AFA and their tours to my single buddy friends. If they are truly serious about finding a life mate, this is the way to go and the company to use. I have made some great contacts and am presently dating a lady I met via the San Jose tour. I don't know what is going to happen in the future - but I am excited - and my confidence level is very high that I am on the right path towards finding the love of my life.

Lima, Peru tour experience

The socials was A1. I couldn't have ask for a better social than Lima, Peru. The women are breathtaking. I was dumbfounded, stunned with their exotic beauty. It was mind-boggling to see all the women there all dressed up nice, looking good. Just unbelievable. And all they wanted was a chance to talk and connect with gentleman that are sincere, that really want to be with them.

Scam site that trains women to write letters and never reveal their identity, The beautiful women you get letters from are not present at their tour "socials." I know there are married women on here

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
You will get 900 letters from women who tell you are their dream man. Answer, and they will write back immediately. Ask them to agree to sign an IMBRA even it you tell her you will pay the agency (AFA) to get it and they won't do it. Letters to nowhere. You might get lucky on a tour (1 in 200).

I would like to thank your organization

I was so fortunate that they provide this wonderful service. I wasnt having much luck with the women here in America. Without their service I would not have found the beautiful, young woman that I am engaged to. I would have had to settle for someone I really didn't want or to be alone for the rest of my life. If a man is sincere and makes up his mind on what type of woman he is looking for before he goes, he can find the girl of his dreams on a tour. God bless you and keep up the good work! I couldn't be happier.

Successful tour

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
My input and experience regarding AFA Romance Tours, specifically to Cebu, Philippines - GO! Just GO! Do not write ANY letters unless you have a seat on a plane! No substitute for being there. You Must Be There Physically! Arrive with a list of possibilities or sort through the profiles when you get there - but you have to get there! One of the women I met on the tour is now my Fiancee - de were engaged after our first meeting! Sometimes you write expecting her to be the one, and she is not. No Chemistry, nice lady but not your future. In my case the chemistry was WOW! The in person meeting could not have been a better meeting; it by far exceeded both her and my wildest expectations!

Preferred solution: Another tour

User's recommendation: Take as much time to do that as you possibly can -stay for the two week tour (or longer is possible) a week or ten days fly’s by entirely too fast.

Letter writing vs. Dating Tours in COlombia

I did the letter writing thing and it's 100% scam...no if, ands or buts. But, I'm wondering about the dating tours to Colombia. Looks like the letter w Io've seen them on YouTube and those are real men and real women. Most look like they are having fun , some not. I just want to speak with someone who has actually been on one of those tours and see if they are worth it . my email is greed11350@***.com

AFA - Gladly recommended

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
It is one thing, gentlemen, to chat online with some anonymous lady for hours, knowing that you may never end up meeting her in person, and just hoping that there will be a positive outcome - versus - being at a tour social, meeting a pretty adorable affectionate Latina, sitting beside you, seeing her sensual welcoming smile and the sparkle in her eyes, and witnessing "the scent of a woman" - there is no comparison - and with that, brings the hope of finding true love for the future.

Life ruined by scam site and criminal vipers setup to commit marriage fraud against you

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Same scam to untold numbers of American men for decades. They are worse than the bad women here. The scammers in Russia or Ukraine usually ask the women to continue sending them money after marriage which they'll likely tell you after a time. Never should anyone be tricked into meeting a Russian criminal and be fooled by their looks into a scam marriage through A Foreign Affair or any other foreign dating or marriage service. Having children with a foreign viper is even worse especially with American Family Courts which are really terrible, they will not protect you but will viciously turn against you (and possibly both of you) where the worst judges are dumped and all rights and privileges are revoked as they support your enemy and mine as the viper's only allegiance is to their home country and family which only hold us in contempt, showing as much despise for Americans as a Family Law Court where you could never imagine the inhumanity until seeing and experiencing firsthand.

i have often wondered the same thing. Surely, it has the appearance of scamming, and monies are transferred interstate and internationally.

I approached one girl that I found on another site, and she informed me that she and never had any letters forwarded to her, and she was unaware that any letters were sent to me from AFF or Loveme.com. On the surface one might conclude that since overseas banks are being used, there might be money laundering, and tax evasion crimes being done. Most definitely, this should be looked at by the FBI, and if evidence of crimes surface, the CIA cab look at where the money is going internationally. Also, if you notice, most photos have taken by professional photographers , and so-called candid shots have been touched up with photo shopped.

As for their overseas romance tours, they seem to have the air of legitimacy, although if you look through various videos of previous tours around the world, you will see some of the men attending all of the tours (i.e., China, Philippines, Ukraine, Thailand, etc. So, you must conclude that they are wealthy men spending $20-35,000 on tours annually, or, they receive financial gain from each tour. Sure, some people have found partners, but for every successful encounter I would wager the odds are probably 50-1 against it. If you truly want to find a foreign bride, take a trip there by yourself and look for one.

There are also local marriage agencies you could use for introductions. Get smart men, think with your big head and not your little head.

To warn oth er men not to waste their money.

iI spent 18 months on AFA and wrote to over 100 women. I seem to write well enough to pique their interest and over the course of my time with AFA I found 4 women who professed to "love me". The cost of communication with AFA is very high, to read, view photos and write back is around $30.00 per communication cycle. These 4 women stated clearly that taey were marriage material and that I was a potential husband. They went to great lengths to point out characteristics that they liked very much and would like to spend the rest of their life with me. Some of the correspondence got very sexy, they described what they would like to do to me when we were alone together. This was a large RED flag for so called "Traditional women" from Ukraine. I started to suspect that most of these responses were being written by male translators. They clearly wrote some things that no woman would write unless she was a *** or a *** star... Thing went permanently south for me after I offered each of the 4 women (separately of course) a trip to Europe to meet. I offered to pay for the trip, book a separate room for them and we could date like normal couple ws for the vacation week. Each of my so called "lovers" turned me down. They did so with really flimsy excuses that were "I have to wash my hair" variety. AFA wants thousands of dollars to provide contact information for each woman. They will not reach out to contact you. In summary, I believe this is a total scam, the women are making hundreds if not thousands of dollars a month writing hundreds of me and pretending to care for them. It is ***
