Zoosk is a scam site, when you open an account there, after a few hours of a day they close the account and never refund you and if you try to contact them, they fail to respond. Be very careful and I advise you look for another dating site and do not patronize Zoosk.

I'm good looking and messaged many, many people nice messages and got zero replies other than automated ones from winks. It claims people want to chat with me, but then when I attempt and send them a nice message they ignore me. I suspect that most of the female profiles on here are not real. My mom said that she used to be a member and got a bunch of messages so I suspect there are a bunch of real male members and mostly fake female members. That is why she got so many messages because most of the women are fake. Also they keep deleting a picture where I have my shirt lifted and they crop another picture where I have my shirt lifted to just show the face. They never said anything when I joined about only face pictures being allowed. If they did I would have never joined. Plus they said that you have 3 days to cancel after joining for full refund and I canceled the next day and they said it was non refundable.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I sent numerous, very noninvasive messages, and didn't receive a single response. Some of these messages were to people I know on Facebook, that would normally respond, but I did not get a response from. I'm slow to cry wolf, but this site is highly suspect, and I would say borders on, fraudulent. My gut says that all the responses to winks are computer generated, and 90% of reviews online say the same thing.
It's hard to believe that it has great ratings, because I smell a big scam!

I was tricked into subscribing when I thought people have messaged me. Turns out they are all automated messages sent by Zoosk, not the members itself. They are started with something like “Thanks. If you are interested or Thanks!” I noticed.
What a complete scam. Very disappointed. Would give negative stars if there would've been an option for it. Now I have to figure out a way to unsubscribe which would be a bloody mission to do considering they are all about scamming your credit cards!

I've found my girl, no thanks whatsoever to Zoosk. The profiles on this website are fake, and the system for finding a match is useless. I message them demanding a refund, but all they can do is send an automated message replying, “Sorry for the inconvenience, re-subscribe!”
I don't care if they state "nonrefundable". If their business is falsely advertising, and manipulating people's feelings to get money (and from what I hear over-charging canceled accounts, fortunately my card ends next month), then they ought to be shut down.

I had over 8 scam artists contact me through this site. Had married men ask me out, and more requests from men for one night stands.
I finally met a nice man and been dating him steady for almost a year. After dating about a month, we both terminated our profiles.
My best friend was on the site the other night and came across my boyfriend's profile which I know has been deleted.
So she had a male friend check out the site and locate my profile that I deleted almost a year ago. I was shocked!
Stay away from this one!

I was never messaged by anyone and don't think that their chat or messaging even works. They just steal your money with no results. They are very untrustworthy for sure. Terrible website.

I was with Zoosk for just one week and encountered many fake profiles. Furthermore, I message someone and claims to have never viewed my profile. I decided to cancel soon afterward. Zoosk is still sending me people who said they viewed my profile when they probably did not. Very deceiving. I would not recommend Zoosk to anyone.

Hello. I was only on Zoosk for a short time, but boy-oh-boy, did I have a horrific experience.
I met this one person who said he was someone else and he was like "Oh, I love you, etc..." Very strange. He wanted me to send him $900 to Africa because he was "working there" and ran out of money. I reported this individual to the police, but I feel bad for people who fall for this. I felt like a piece of "meat" on their carousel! Disgusting.
Then I met this other man with many, many issues. This is a dangerous site, as it exposes women to many strange individuals, and it can also be a dangerous site if a person does not use good judgment! Stay AWAY.

1). They said they would respond to questions about setting up a profile in 36 hours. After 48 hours I had to search for their number and call them. Now I've wasted four days of possible searches.
2). Every time you search you have to change your profile all over again.
3). They are still not responding to emails when I had more questions.
4). I did it for one month and am not doing it again and have four friends that I turned away from this site.
5). They are a rip-off!
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
