I've been a member of Hot Russian Brides for around 5 months. I've been rather fortunate to come across what seems to be a very genuine woman who has alerted me to a few scams that go on on the Hot Russian Brides website. There were times I thought i was "chatting" to a girl, but it was just a translator, they were just chewing up my credits for a % of my money, when I got an email through to the girl I thought I was talking to, she had no idea of the conversation we were supposed to have had. She has told me of plenty of scammers on the site, many married women just earning money chewing up your credits chatting to you. Whilst the site publicly denies any money being earnt by the ladies doing this (of course) it is common practice so be very aware.
On the upside, she tells me of all the genuine women that she knows from her local branch of Hot Russian Brides, they go to the agency to "Live video chat" to men (at least you can see who you're speaking to)and catch up to share their experiences, they too get plenty of dirty disgusting men sending them all sorts of requests.
These "genuine" girls dislike the scammers immensly as they give them all a bad name and whilst it does not cost the girls money on an ongoing basis, they still have to pay quite a lot (for them) to have the agency do photos and profiles. The agency also threatens to cancel their profiles if they do not have the camera on (more credits) during chat time and they must be available for "chat" for a certain period of time each week. All obviously set up by the site to make as much money as possibly from each person on there. Even when the girls leave (or are asked to leave) their profiles are left up to be used by the interpreters to make money out of you.
Having said that, I'm happy with the girl I've been communicating with, I have her home address and personal email (at great expense through the site) we spoken and I'm going there in April 2012 to meet her.
There are a lot of good people on the site, just be very wary.
Good luck if you give it a try
In summary, I would recommend Hot Russian Brides to a friend.
