Silver Daddy's Profile-Scam Or Not?

[+ Gar1eth]

Let's take a vote. 


"I'm a man who values honesty, trust, and a good heart. I am in active service in the military, I believe in building something real with my partner and growing together over time. Distance doesn't scare me I'm open to long-distance if we're both willing to communicate and get to know each other deeply. I'm looking for commitment, mutual respect, and a healthy, loving relationship."

Go for it dumdum.

Hmmm... With the exception of the "active military duty" part, those lines sound very familiar. But you never know. I'd say proceed  sloooooowly with caution!

If everything in this quote is 100% sincere on his part, is it what you want?

Is he in your area, and if not, how do you feel about distance?

Active military - would that potentially throw a wrench into your life if his orders include deployment overseas?

99.9% sure it's fake, but one way to find out: Respond and find out how quickly he looks for $$$.

Actually many, many,  many of what I'm presuming are fake profiles tell you they are in the military.

He supposedly lives near Houston. I live about 250 miles away. IMHO both the content and the phrasing stick out as Total Scam.

You are correct, Sir. I don't.  I was posting more as a PSA for those, if there are any here on the MC, who aren't as familiar with scammers.

Is it missing a clause “…as long as the checks keep coming…”

I always take that site to be a fake. It's ridiculously outdated. Would the owners even have firewalls up, or any protections?

Possibly it is in your area. I don't know. I was on it years ago and then stopped. I recently re-enrolled when a guy I thought was going to turn into a nice f-bud relationship -or if not that then  a platonic friend said he was on it. Dan, the guy, turned out to be a dud-said he was interested. Then pretty much ghosted me. But I've met one guy off of Silver Daddys that I really like. And we've vo-do-de-oh-doughed several times. He's nice to be around outside the bedroom too. 
 

So that was a silver lining from the Dan-The-Dud Experience.
