121Over40sDating.com review

121Over40sDating.com offers users an experience based on friendship, dating and love. They are focused on an audience who are over 40 years old. On the landing page we see images of adult couples, but in this case, without a sexual connotation. To use the platform, it is necessary to register as a user.

To do this, you provide your gender, what gender you are looking for, your date of birth and an email. The email will quickly be bombarded by messages. The first, gives you the guidelines for completing the registration. Once inside the platform, we suspected a scam. First, there are hardly any profiles. Those, which appear connected, do not seem real.

Staff profiles

This site contains profiles which are moderated and managed by the company itself. We read this in the Terms and Conditions. This constitutes a clear example of a fake chat. Becoming a user is free, but members must pay to facilitate the use of the complete services.

Once you have paid, you will have access to private messaging within the numerous channels they offer, such as, forums, blogs or polls. VIP membership is more expensive, however, fake profiles continue to be maintained. You can cancel your subscription, but it does not mean that you stop being a member.

Excerpt from the Terms & Conditions (as of 09/12/2023)

We do not guarantee that all the profiles found in Search will belong to our users, as we reserve the right to create profiles which are maintained and managed by our employees (“Staff Profiles”). The purpose of these Staff Profiles is to ensure that our Services are operating properly by allowing us to test the Services, features and functionalities, and to research our Products and Services.

Using your profile to promote

One of the things that we must consider dangerous is that the platform reserves the rights to use your profile to promote the site. So, your profile can become one of the fakes that constitute the scam. They offer the possibility of refund, if you do not use the account. This makes us think that there is no type of subscription rip-off here.

121Over40sDating.com is a website belonging to a company based in Dublin, in Ireland. This company is called Desdemona LTD. They also manage others sites which are focused on contacts. They ensure transparency in payments through the Online Dating Guardian, whose logo appears on the landing page.
