Anti-Scamming Websites (lists and databases)

I’ve run across websites that list scammers.  If you want to visit one of these, fine.  But keep these things in mind:

1. No website will have a comprehensive list.
2. No website can keep up with the sheer number of new dating sites (much less the members).
3. In my humble opinion, no anti-scam site is worth a membership fee.

RECOMMENDED: I recommend Christian Filipina for those who are serious about finding love in the Philippines.

Don’t depend on scamming databases.  I would instead advise you to follow some of the steps I’ve listed on this blog and just focus your attention on finding the right girl for you.  If you run across a scammer, report it to the site and move on.

Why Marry a Filipina? They Speak English

Women from the Philippines learn English when they are in grade school.  English movies, television and songs are played throughout the Philippines with no translations/subtitles.  It isn’t really necessary due to their English proficiency.  Of course, those with more education (college degrees) are going to be better in English.  But most Filipinas will be able to communicate with you without any problems.  This is one major advantage to marrying a Filipina.

Reasons to Marry a Filipina

What are some good reasons to marry a woman from the Philippines?  I can think of a quite a few:

You are past your 30’s but you want children.  Let’s face it–men don’t really have a biological clock.  If you are 40 or older, marrying someone your own age may mean a childless marriage.    As I’ve mentioned before, Filipinas are open to marrying older men (see also: Does Age Matter to Filipinas).

You want someone with conservative values.   Maybe the women you are meeting remind you of the characters in Sex in the City–not the type you’d want to bring home to mom.  You’ll find more conservative women in the Philippines.

You are religious or a person of faith.  Women from the Philippines tend to be devoted to God.

RECOMMENDED: I recommend Christian Filipina for those who are serious about finding love in the Philippines.

You want an educated woman.  As I’ve mentioned before, there are plenty of educated, professional women who join penpal websites.

You take marriage seriously, and want a woman who will do the same.  Filipinas are very family oriented.

You think brown-skinned petite women are beautiful.  This Philippines has the most beautiful  women in the world.
