I spent the minimum for 10 messages. After 4 outgoing I reserved the remaining 6 for “hopeful” women. The first replies made me realize this was AI generated or some troll in his basement getting 25 cents on my dollar to make up replies. As the other reviewers said, the “women” say very little but do encourage yet another message. My 10th outgoing message said, “You better write something substantial because I'm not spending another 10 bucks. “What did I do wrong was the reply” hahaha. My inbox is now filled with 20 and 30-somethings saying how hot I am for a 75 year old. HAH! Don’t bother, and if, like me, you're reading this after already spending money, I hope it wasn't more than $10 or $20 before you realized what it is.

CATPHISHING SCAM!!!I
I am 67 years old and a retired health care worker. In good faith, I attempted to have honest conversations with women, women I thought who wanted a friend.
The scam is the old 'bait and switch,' or more specifically, 'catphishing.'
To spot a catfish in an online context, look for signs like avoiding video calls, excessive personalization, a quick escalation of feelings, a lack of social media presence, and a reluctance to meet in person.
Here's the test:
1. Start a normal conversation about current events -- they are universally ignorant of current events, especially in their own state (which is indicated on their profile).
2. (To spot a catfish in an online context) look for signs like avoiding video calls, excessive personalization, a quick escalation of feelings, a lack of social media presence, and a reluctance to meet in person.
3. The initial text message is the hook; across the board, 99% of the first text is filled with unusual urgency and extremely graphic language. However, that urgent, "I'm gonna DIE if you don't 'xxxx' me"type of manic prose is absent.
4. The Catphisher will have shallow understanding of their own purported employment; query details of their job.
5. You think you are texting a female, but are actually texting to a variety of males and females, other people who are NOT the person in the picture they post.
6. Challenge their resolve to keep you spending tokens and note their alarm when you state you are quitting. Note how they will respond with more provocative propositions.
It becomes very clear once you look behind the curtain; the pattern begins to emerge!
They really are criminals that prey on the unsuspecting and lonely.

The old bait and switch.
I did not have any payment issues. I had trouble with messages that promised too much, but all they really want to do is keep you texting, because that's how they make their money. Very unscrupulous to say one thing and do something entirely different.

This company is a scam
This company is a scam. They have some hot looking women on their site that tell you that they are really into you and want to meet real soon. They never set anything up to actually meet. The company charges $39.99 and you get to chat with the women for a short time. They gladly take your money., but give you nothing in return. You will spend a lot of money quickly and you will get some pictures of hot women and that is all. None of them will actually really meet you. Stay away and save your money.

This organization is a fraudulent organization
Onlylocalclub.com are complete scammers.
When I began to engage in conversation with who I thought was a women it seemed legit. The conversations were pretty detailed and intimate. But every time I proposed a meeting the subject was changed with more pointless conversation. I believe they employ chat moderators and the photos you see are probably stolen photos of real women. I you value your time avoid this platform at all cost. They are criminals and need to be stopped
