Report on Flingr.net review

Flingr.net makes a solid first impression and has a modern and appealing design. Its appearance is nice, and we saw some promising content. There are great-looking profile pictures on the landing page that all show very attractive women. These stunning women make this site seem promising. Apart from these profiles, the landing page does not offer a lot of content, which is bad. Regarding the profile pictures on the landing page, we also must mention their negative aspects as well.

Even though the profiles looked good, they were too good to be true. Plus, it was questionable that only female profiles were in the advertisem*nt. This website seems to be aimed at the male audience. As a matter of fact, by only showing female profiles on the landing page, it stands to reason that the site is filled with fake profiles. Moreover, this website also has bad transparency. We do not know if costs will develop after registration. We also do not know the current number of members.

We know way too little about the platform, and bad transparency can be a hint of an unreliable portal. The site did not leave us with a good impression of it after trying it out firsthand. Moreover, at the very bottom of the webpage, we found hidden information regarding the use of fictitious profiles. It was not mentioned by the site what these fake profiles were for.

We find it to be quite decent for the website to notify users of fake profiles. The use of fictitious profiles is generally never good. We assume that this website uses fake chats to increase the income of the company that operates this site. The site operator is Flirt Kings, which is based in Breda, Netherlands. We created a profile on Flingr.net to find out if all its profiles are fictitious. Moreover, we needed to find out what was its true purpose, and if fake profiles could be identified. We also wanted to see if these fictitious profiles were moderated.

Is Flingr.net a rip-off?

Yes, this online dating website is a scam, and it uses fake chat to increase the income of the site operator. In our review, there is only one positive aspect to mention on this site. It is possible to spot the rip-off before registering. On the landing page, users are notified to some extent about the use of fictitious profiles. It is not clearly stated that all profiles are fictitious. We also found online reviews from former users who shared their bad experiences.

This website has a bad reputation, and the customer satisfaction rate is low. The notification on the landing page that informs users about the use of fictitious profiles is well-hidden. It can only be seen at the very bottom of the landing page, below the attractive profile pictures. We assume that these profile pictures are there to steal all the attention. According to the online reviews we found, most of the former users did not spot the notification on the landing page.

Additionally, the notification on the landing page does not mention the use of fake chats. The fake profiles on the website are moderated. A fake profile shows a fictitious person with whom a date in real life is not possible. However, it is nearly impossible to identify these profiles without some type of indicator. A user cannot identify a fictitious profile while using the site. “Fake chat” operators control these fake profiles.

After the registration process, “fake chat” operators will take the first step toward having a conversation with real users. By using erotic messages, they entice new members to reply. Users will be charged for sending messages. This is how the rip-off works. Some former users mentioned that they received invitations for a date. However, these dates never happened, as it is not possible to meet fictitious people from date sites.

Fake chat operators will find excuses for rejecting date offers from real users. All chat operators really want is to generate as many messages as possible from a user. With every sent message, the income of the site operator increases more and more. After we registered, we received messages that tried to entice us with erotic.

Users are charged high prices for sending messages. This is not just our opinion. Online reviews have also criticized the high costs. This website is a waste of time and money. The chance of meeting a real person here is zero. All the operators want is to increase the site operator’s income.

Registration on Flingr.net

Flingr.net offers free registration. Women and men can create a profile, free of charge. The registration screen is on the landing page, which can be completed within a few minutes. Next, users will be directed to a new screen where they have to enter their contact information. When we registered for the site ourselves, we entered a valid e-mail address, a username, and a password. Moreover, we had to agree to the terms and conditions and the privacy policy.

Afterward, we had the chance of uploading a profile picture. This step was optional, which we evaluated negatively. If the process of uploading a profile picture were mandatory, it would increase the quality of the whole website. We just had to assume that most profiles on the site would not have a profile picture. Next, we had to choose our location, gender, age, and sexual orientation. In the last step of the registration process, we were permitted to add a personal description. However, once again, this step was optional.

Before reaching the final step of the verification process, we had to activate our account via a link, which we received via e-mail. Registration is completed then. The whole process is very simple and can be done in less than a minute.

Members’ area on Flingr.net

We entered the dating platform and visited the members´ pool. This is our first and nearly our last stop. Afterward, we only entered the payment page, for the website does not offer more sections to explore. We can either visit the unorganized members, or we can use the search function to filter the website’s community. Having the search function makes a lot of sense, as the number of members is high.

To the untrained eye, the profiles on this website look very promising, for there seem to be a lot of members on this site. We had assumed that there would be a high chance of finding a match, but it’s all an illusion. As mentioned earlier, the profiles here are fake. Before we delve deeper into fictitious content, we want to describe our experience while using the site.

The portal has a modern and appealing design which makes it easy to navigate. We also had a good overview of this because there were not a lot of sections to explore. It is very easy to handle the website. The search function does not offer a lot of filters as well. That makes the use of this feature very easy as well.

A website that is easy to use may sound fun, but this is not the case. Since this portal with fictitious content does not offer a lot of features, or areas to explore, using the site is unexciting. It only takes a few minutes to get to know the entire website. Plus, after having received a few messages within minutes of registering, it was obvious that this platform employs “fake chat” operators.

We must assume that all profiles on the site are fake. Many profiles that are shown in the members´ pool are displayed on the landing page as well. On the landing page, the use of fictitious profiles is stated. The use of fictitious profiles is usually never good, especially since we are unable to spot the difference between a real and a fake profile.

The site operator does not have any kind of indicator to let users know which profile is fictitious. For that reason, we must assume that all profiles on the website are fake. There are also reviews from the internet by former members who had the same experience as us. Information regarding moderators is missing from the landing page. We find that information informing users about moderators and operators is important and that all users should be notified of it.

The site operator only admits to having operators in the terms and conditions, which users do not normally read. Fake chat operators control the fake profiles on the site. They will take the first step of a chat by immediately writing to users after completing their registration. These messages might sound promising and make a great impression, but receiving messages right after registration is a bad sign. It is the first hint of a moderated chat.

The fact that fake chat operators actively stimulate new members into chatting is one problem with the site. Moreover, fictitious profiles cannot be identified. They will also not mention anything about fictitious profiles or moderators in general. Therefore, users will not know anything about the use of fake chats. Users will also not know about the goal of chat operators. The reason why fake chat operators start a chat is to increase the income for the website’s operator.

Terms and conditions of Flingr.net

Extract from the terms and conditions from the Flingr.net website. Current status of the terms and conditions as of October 19, 2022.

The user should take that into account Flirt Kings offers chats with both real member profiles and fictitious member profiles (called Chatflings) on its website. The uses was informed about this when he first visited the website. The Chatflings can have fictional conversations, role play or have other fictional communication with the user and other users of the website. Chatflings are deployed with the aim of stimulating interactions within the website and having conversations with users. The user agrees that all content originating from such Chatflings, information, texts and images are fictional and are only intended as entertainment.

All Chatflings are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead is pure coincidence. In contrast to real member profiles, no arrangements can be made with fictitious profiles and Chatflings. You can identify the Chatflings by the logo in the right hand corner of the profile picture in the profile.

Costs on Flingr.net

Registration is free, but users will have to purchase virtual credits to use the website’s features. We received 30 credits for free after registering, and 10 credits are needed to send one message. As a result, we could only send up to 3 messages free of charge, before we would need to pay for more credits. If a user chooses to purchase credits, they will automatically get the premium membership status.

There is no subscription offer on this site, so we can exclude the risk of a subscription trap. However, this website is still a scam with fake chats. This website uses fictitious profiles that are controlled by “fake chat” operators who are employed by the company that runs the site. The fake chat operator’s objective is to increase the site operator’s income by generating as many messages as possible so that users will keep replying as they keep paying for credits.

If our balance of credits is too low to send messages, we can purchase new credits. There are four different types of credit to purchase from. As mentioned before, this website does not offer any kind of subscription, so all purchases are one-time payments.

The smallest package costs 24.99 USD and contains 100 credits. With this package, we can send 10 messages. Each message would cost 2.49 USD. The second package costs 49.99 USD and contains 222 credits. For the first purchase, a discount of 10 percent is available. Afterward, we would receive the same number of credits, but only for 44.99 USD. This package allows us to send 22 messages, each message costs 2.27 USD (without a discount).

The third package contains 500 credits and costs 99.99 USD. With a discount of 20 percent, this package costs only 89.99 USD. This package allows users to send 50 messages. Each message costs 2.00 USD (without the discount). The fourth package contains 1,000 credits and costs 149.99 USD with a discount of 40 percent. This package would allow users to send 100 messages. The price per message is 1.49 USD without a discount.

From what we experienced with this website; the use of this platform is very expensive. Moreover, it is a waste of time and money. There is little to no chance of meeting a real match here. According to reviews on the internet, all profiles are fake, and we believe this to be true. The high prices for sending messages make the whole rip-off even worse.

Conclusion from our Flingr.net experience

Flingr.net is a scam website with fake chats. This online dating portal uses fictitious profiles that are operated by fake chat operators. The use of fictitious profiles is stated on the landing page, but this notifying text is well-hidden and does not affect our review in any way.

At first, new users are not aware that all the profiles are fake. Fake chat operators will actively stimulate new members to chat, but they will not reveal themselves to be fictitious. There are no marked indicators for fictitious profiles on the site. Therefore, by the time members realize that their chat partner is not genuine, they would have already spent so much money on credits.

The highest price for one message is 2.49 USD. This is a lot of money, especially if you consider the fact that your message will reach a moderated fake profile. The chance of finding a real match appears to be zero. Chat operators only want to increase the income of the website’s company. The site operator is Flirt Kings, which is based in Breda, Netherlands.

    yup, as is stated above a total rip off. every time i tried to get a member to contact me on my email account a flag about how they “wouldn’t feel safe elsewhere”. “We must learn about each other here first”…”I’m spending just as much money as you to talk to you here”… The word “honey” or “hon” pops up just at the right time to hook you into thinking she has an Ernest interest in you.
