Boranu Online BV

Boranu Online BV is a well-known operator in the online dating industry. It is an operator with various online dating websites of different categories, including online match making sites, dating websites for single people, and online platforms for casual dating. However, it’s mostly known for its fake chat service and schemes. While doing our research, we found a lot of negative online reviews from former users of this company’s services. According to them, none of the websites created by Boranu Online BV offer the chance of actual matchmaking, just virtual entertainment. “Fake chat” operators are employed to manage fictitious profiles.

Boranu Online BV is a company with private limited liability. It’s based in Netherlands, but their dating websites are available all over the world. However, most of the company’s target group are based in Germany, German-speaking countries, England, and other English-speaking countries. The landing pages generated for the websites of this company have bad transparency. It’s worth mentioning that most dating websites created by this operator have bad transparency as well. Additionally, the landing page of this website only provides information about managing billing processes and cancelling premium membership services. Actual information about the company and its service isn’t provided.

The Boranu Online BV scheme in detail

The company operates many different dating websites. However, most platforms of the operator’s network are casual dating websites. That means the target group includes mostly young male singles looking for casual dates with female singles. The profiles on these websites are fake and these fake profiles are not clearly labelled as fictitious content. That means paying customers of these websites cannot identify fake profiles while using the websites.

“Fake chat” operators are employed by Boranu Online BV. They control the fake profiles and encourage paying customers to engage in conversations. While doing online research, we found reviews from former users. They explain that “fake chat” operators actively stimulate users to chat. While chatting, fake chat operators will not provide any useful information about the use of fake profiles or the purpose of using fake chat. Fake chat services create high income for the operator of the site. Registration on most websites is free, but high costs will occur for credits, which are needed for sending messages.

The purpose of entertainment

The operator mentions in the legal information that most of its dating websites are only there to provide virtual entertainment. However, the reason for having a fake chat service is not the purpose of entertainment. It is also worth mentioning that the websites do not present themselves as entertainment services, but as online dating websites. Additionally, paying members will not be notified about the purpose of entertainment while using this website.

The following is stated in the terms and conditions:

“For the entertainment of the users, Boranu uses animators and operators as *professional chat partners. This service is provided in the highest quality. No real meetings are possible with these operators. Users can only send them messages within the portal.”

The online dating website, MyDates.com, has a modern design and an appealing appearance. The name of the website already gives it away that it’s clearly a casual online dating platform. Additionally, the content on the landing page shows a lot of profile pictures, erotic promises, and attractive females. The website can be described as transparent. However, important information about the website and its services, for example, the members’ structure or rates for using the website, is not provided.

However, it’s important to mention that this website already gives a few hints a way of being a scam with a fake chat service. At the top of the landing page, we read that it’s possible to find a partner to flirt and chat. Actual dates aren’t mentioned. Additionally, the website explains that the site guarantees that users will find someone to chat with. This type of guarantee is usually mentioned by sites that have “fake chat” operators, who contact paying customers. It is just that easy for a company to guarantee chats. However, this doesn’t lead to customer satisfaction.

The target group of MyDates.com

This is a casual online dating website. That means members of this platform are looking forward to meeting other like-minded singles for erotic adventures. That would mean that users aren’t looking for long-lasting relationships on this site but for as many casual dates as possible. The profiles on the landing page show only female members. That means the target group is clearly male-dominated. However, according to our experience, it can be a sign of fake profiles if only female profiles are provided for advertisement. This website does not appear legit.

Registration process

Registering for an account on this website is easy and can be completed quickly. It is possible to register with a Google or Facebook account. It is also possible to connect a profile directly with a PayPal account. Alternatively, it is possible to create an account with a different email address and proceeding through the normal registration process.

During the first step of the registration process, users are asked to select their own gender and the gender they are looking to date. This website allows homo- and heterosexual matchmaking. Bisexual matchmaking is not possible. In the second step, username and passport information must be provided. The last step asks for a valid email address and age. It is not possible to upload a profile picture. Moreover, new accounts do not have to be verified, which is a negative aspect according to our experience. Evaluating the pros and cons, registration is easy but the profiles will lack of information.

Members’ area

The members´ area has a solid appearance with a good overview. It is easy to handle the website. The members´ area is also full of profiles. It seems like this is a website that offers high chances of successful matchmaking. However, this website turned out to be a fantasy chat. The profiles in the members´ area are fake.

A fake profile shows fictitious content. It is not possible to meet a fictitious person in real life. “Fake chat” operators are employed to control these profiles. This website has a fake chat service to generate more income for the operator. According to online reviews, it is not possible to meet real people on this website. It is only possible to find a fictitious chat partner for virtual entertainment. Regarding the pros and cons, this website can be a lot of fun for people who are looking for online entertainment, but high costs will develop for chatting with moderated profiles.

Costs

MyDates.com uses a coin-based payment system where sending one message costs 50 coins. Users can choose from several coin packages, each offering bonus coins to encourage larger purchases. The basic package costs £4.99 and gives 170 coins (150 + 20 bonus), enough for 3 messages, making each message cost around £1.66. The standard package at £9.99 includes 330 coins, allowing 6 messages, at about £1.67 per message.

The bestseller package costs £24.99 for 830 coins, enabling 16 messages, resulting in a per-message cost of £1.56. The platinum package at £49.99 includes 1650 coins for 33 messages, with a per-message cost of £1.52. The largest offer, the full happiness package, gives 3300 coins for £99.99, covering 66 messages, also at about £1.52 per message.

High costs for sending messages

While the bonus coins reduce the effective cost per message slightly with larger packages, even the best rate remains high, according to our experience. On average, users are expected to pay between £1.52 and £1.67 per message, making this website a relatively expensive platform for regular communication.

The online dating websites of Boranu Online BV are not legit and have a fake chat service to generate a higher income for the operator. Fake profiles are used, controlled by fake chat operators. Fake chat operators will actively stimulate users to chat. While chatting with paying customers they will not provide any information about chat moderators. According to online reviews, it is a scam and not possible to meet real singles for actual dates. Most members have had a negative experience while using their websites and call it a rip-off. The operator is well-known for this kind of scheme.
