More than 37 million cheating spouses took the bait and created a profile on the site in hopes of hooking up under the sheets with another married stranger.
The site’s success collapsed in 2015 after it was hacked. It has since rebuilt, but it looks like it could never return to the infidelity empire it once was, with users now claiming it is a “scam” and full of “fake profiles.”

Someone else added: “I gave Ashley Madison one star because I can’t give it zero stars.” All profiles are bots, scammers or phishers. Right after reaping the money from her. Scammers are easy to spot because they want to get you out of there as quickly as possible.
‘Phishers just want your pictures and passwords and then they disappear. Bots can be detected by personal data. I mean, weighing 35 kg and yet carrying a few extra kilos?
‘They want to know everything about you, see your private photos, etc., but never see your profile. Just avoid this site. Instead, spend your money on a good night out.
One user even referred to Ashley Madison as a “warning” and warned people about the cost.
They wrote: ‘The app works well, but not in the way one might think. It’s designed with one purpose: to separate men from their money, and it does it exceptionally well.
‘For personal reasons, I downloaded the app, set it up and quickly discovered it wasn’t free. It is not possible to use it for free except to look, looking is free but the illusion of touching is… expensive. I won’t say “there are no human females on the site.” It would be almost impossible to confirm it one way or another.

You could spend so much in a single night trying to find someone real to talk to. The site was designed to fleece you and that’s the nicest term I can use. 99 percent of the contacts I made on the site were fake users, probably whose job it is to “kill for 1000 cuts” your credits, goodbye with winks, likes and other nonsense.
‘From what I learned, women’s bills are free, men pay for everything. The inability to find a real partner before you run out of money and credits, well, to quote the Hunger Games, “may the odds be always in your favor.” You better play the lottery. This site may have once been legitimate, but not anymore.
‘I’ll give Ashley Madison credit for doing at least two things right, they will refund credits spent on accounts that turn out to be fake, the other thing they do right is that once you spend credits to talk to someone, you can chat with them. free from that moment on.
‘As long as you understand that the person is probably just trying to scam you or lure you somewhere else. Ashley Madison is no longer relevant, there are no real people looking for what they sell, which is real contact with real people. ‘
Another veteran user of the site told people on the web to stay away from Ashley Madison.

And it’s really gone down. Nothing but robots and scammers. I don’t think there’s a real woman here. “I’m glad I got the credit offer they only offer when you first sign up because it’s definitely not worth the time or money,” the user wrote.
Someone else added: “The app sucks and isn’t real.” Nobody on the site is real. The first fake AI. Do not waste your time.’
Another person commented: ‘Stay away, it’s a big scam.’ Ladies send you a message asking for contact and then suddenly disappear. What a scam, it should be investigated and dismantled.”
