Dr. Dato’s Brief:
*** Scam Alert ***
Here is another press release on another new site that claims to solve singles unhappiness ‘through the maze of useless hype which fills the internet dating scene in 2011′, in their words.
Of course, I visited the site and it looks very similar to an infomercial that we have seen time and time again of people who claims to hold the secret knowledge to ‘great wealth’. It reads exactly like that, were you read each line - makes great sense - read the next line - makes even greater sense - then continue to read all the way to bottom and naturally you have the option to purchase something.
The thinking behind these websites are a way to motivate users to feel that there is something ‘great’ behind all of this and you take the plunge and find that there is really nothing there.
I am not a great fan of these types of sites but people do fall for them, eg. the person who says you can make money instantly through their marketing tool or someone who claims to make you instant money through their internet programs.
These websites simply pray on the mind of the ‘negativity’ of the individual and usually last for a very short period of time, creating hype as they exploit those individuals, make money and close business.
You may ask, how can I be so sure?
It’s pretty simple really, because if you read the press release the very thing that they are trying to cultivate and push propaganda against, are exactly the same thing that they are doing. For example, “It is so disheartening to see so many singles being taking advantage of by slick promotions…”
A genuine offer of a product, would be transparent and to the point and not laced with negativity and having the holy grail to the ‘pocket of information’ that will solve all our problems and woes.

some dating sites do make fantastic claims, watch out for them!
