HotRussianBrides

Well the name says it all! Hot Russian Brides is a site that connects Western men with beautiful women from Eastern Europe. The women are purportedly seeking marriage or at least a long term relationship outside of their home country and are willing to relocate.

The Brides

If you've seen other "foreign marriage" websites before you'll recognize this system. Fees are charged for services such as email correspondence, translations and letter delivery as well as travel arrangements.

On accessing the site, you will find a catalog of several thousand attractive ladies. Most women are from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Czech Republic but there are also profiles of women already living in the United States or United Kingdom. Although it is free to join the site, features such as live chat, as well as sending and opening emails requires the purchase of credits. Men will have to pay.

Credits

Credit packages start at $30 and work out slightly cheaper when purchased in larger quantities. After joining and entering the site, my email box already had two messages, from attractive young women, waiting to be opened. I also receive several chat requests from ladies who were online.

Payments, payments!

However trying to open an email or open a chat session will take you immediately to the payment page. So any invitations obviously need to be examined carefully before jumping in. Once at the payment page it's not possible to leave there by hitting the back button on your browser either. This makes navigation awkward.

Overall HotRussianBrides is a site with a clear agenda. They charge men fees for communicating with young women in their catalog. Whether any or all of these ladies are genuine is impossible to verify, therefore men should use their own care and judgment particularly before parting with money.
