  • @TR23 We gotta laugh 🤣 it off.

  • I literally had the same exact experience yesterday. Weird coincidence, im reading along in the comments and I'm going to leave that person alone now.

    Glad you seem to have dodged a bullet! It throws me for a loop every time someone messages something that sort of SCREAMS "I'm looking for other things", instead of being here for Platonic Cuddles.

    It's cool, though, that you were kind enough to risk reaching out with a welcome to the site. That kind of inviting warmth will hopefully pay off in cuddles for you soon! :)

  • 99% of people who say they are looking for long term relationship very quickly after chatting (especially if they want to take communication offsite quickly) is a romance scammer. We try to detect as many of them as possible and ban them as quickly as they join, sometimes hundreds of scammers a day. Please report any that you feel are suspicious so we can take a look at their account.

  • Thanks for the information. I should’ve clarified from the beginning that I need this for making business calls from SK to US.
    What I mean by that is if I need to make a call to my bank or to my carrier or to some other business in the US. Even the pharmacy or my doctors office. Pretty sure my doctor doesn’t want to jump on WhatsApp with me lol. Regardless the fact that she’s not a scammer.

    The rate is too high to use straight phone call from my cell I thought people here would have some good ideas but actually messaged with a Cuddler I know quite well who is from another country and he gave me some good ideas.
    Sorry I didn’t clarify, but KakaoTalk is what we use for family and friends.

  • Carrie Ann, try Viber or Google voice for the calls.
    Although Google Voice VoIP comes with new rules and regulations it will still allow for messages and calls to be free.

    BUT if you list GV as a business VoIP it is better as it will not limit your comms. 😊🤗☎️🤙

    Some of the free international options do not work in every country, but GV should suffice if there is internet 🛜 connection.

    I use only a Google Voice number for this site. In fact, I got a Google Voice number before I had any contact with a live person here. Anyone who is using their real phone number on this site is a little crazy or uninformed.
    I’m not sure if my Google Voice number will work overseas for making business calls but thanks for your message

    Can you get scammed on what’sapp even just talking to family?

    VoIP is the way to go!
    Viber is great as well.

    GV depends on data rates, pc vs phone app ect.
    I prefer WA as it’s easier and more effective for me.

    Agreed!!

    Not sure what all the hysteria is about anyone using a secondary phone mechanism to communicate with strangers on the Internet 🛜.

    👻 Unless a shared household/family platform is visible for app downloads. 👾

    Heck I am stigmatized from all the spam junk mail and direct cell phone spam calls with being on the DNDR. VoIP so far has zero. 👏
