SakuraDate 

I think most of the Girls are from modelling agencies in untrue surroundings which signify Lies and more Lies. The communication seems AI generated, As the answers come too quick. Its not a nice feeling on the site, As too many potential hits come in. You can spend hours wasitng your time and money and feeding the site with your profile,likes dislikes ect. but never get anywhere near a Date.. Its a scam.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY YOU WILL NEVER MEET THESE GIRLS . THEY WILL SHOW YOU ALL THIER BODY PARTS HAVE YOU THINK YOU WILL BE WITH THEM , NOT TRUE! I SPENT OVER $10,000.00 ON NINA TO HELP HER GET A PASSPORT & VISA SHE NEVER DID IT. THEY ALL TALK A BIG GAME BUT IT IS ALL BULSHIT. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! ALL THE GIFTS I SENT TO HERE WAS SO SHE COULD GO TO A PERSON THAT WILL BUY THEM AND GIVE HERE CASH THAT ADDED UP TO BUY VISA PASSPORT SHE DID NOTHING ALL I HERE IS HER MOM IS SICK THEY ALL COME UP WITH AN EXCUSE. YOU WILL NEVER TALK ON THE PHONE ALL YOU WILL DO IS TYPE. YOU CAN NOT GET TO KNOW SOMEONE BY TYPING ON A COMPUTER. NINA IS NOT THE ONLY OVER HALF THESE GIRLS IS NOT READY FOR NOTHING. SHOWING YOUR ASS AND TITS MEANS NOTHING. TO ALL AMERICAN MEN DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY

This is scam site. Best to not be lured in. A couple gigs going on but according to one girl..the site writes contracts with modeling agencies who supply girls. The girls are rated based on $$ they generate and then top rated girls get better gigs. The goal of site is not to create relations they do everything they can to keep from that as long as click $$ keep flowing. There is extreme censoring..no AI could be that good and they would need to dedicate an army--i think the models also sensor...so encourage u to meet but block every attempt unless u pay the site...which many modeling agencies these days like legalized prostitution...kinda genius way to advertise and have motivated girls doing there thing. I could not find one real girl...sure there are some but hard to find. DONT USE PAY PER CLICK DATING SITES!!!! I have yet to find one that is legit.

Much was spent with some hopefuls, one in particular, but got no email or any contact information whatsoever. Incensed. A genius scam. Guys, look elsewhere for even just one date!

Scam. Clearly fake accounts and bots sending messages.

the company remained a profit base business, thus flooding myself with about ten or more woman with pictures and nudity, Its like an Ai GENERATED RANDOM CHOICES,.THOUGH I REACH OVER 5000 POINTS AFTER SPENDING THIS MUCH OF MONEY, IT REFUSING TO VALIDATE FOR THESE CREDIT TO BE USED FO ONE SPECIFIC WOMAN,b ECASUE THE NATURE OF FLOODING AND WOOING MYSELF BY SENDING NUMEROUS PICTURES. IT A WASTE OF MONEY HERE, NOT RECOMMENDED FOR ANYONE WHO IS DESPERATE TO FIND LIFE PARTNER

Read the fine print. If you attempt to exchange any sort of contact info it gets blurred out unless you (fine print) spend 5000 credits, maintain continuous contact for 15 days, then request details for another 500 credits which must be approved by the recipient……

This isn’t a dating website……I’m sure my comments above explain what it really is 😡

This site is nothing short of a scam
Everything written is monitored any anything that resembles number or email or anything is stared out to the receiver of the message.
I spent over $1000 australian in this crap site and never git to meet anyone in person due to the blocking action on the web browser and site owners.
I could have flown from the east coast of australia to Asia for 1/3 the money I've spent on this shithouse dating site.
Do not use. Scammers.

SakuraDate operates in a way that raises serious ethical and legal concerns. While they market themselves as a legitimate dating service, my experience suggests otherwise.

The platform enforces severe communication restrictions, making it nearly impossible to verify if the women are real—an immediate red flag for any reputable dating service.

There’s a clear financial incentive to keep users paying for communication rather than fostering genuine connections. Many interactions felt scripted or automated, and every attempt to transition conversations to real platforms like WeChat or Skype or even phone communication was met with resistance or silence—hallmarks of pay-to-chat scam operations.

Most troubling is SakuraDate's repeated refusal to delete user accounts upon request, potentially violating international data protection laws such as:

GDPR (EU) – “Right to Erasure” (Article 17)

CCPA (California, US) – Section 1798.105: Right to deletion

When requesting deletion, users are told their account is “under review.” This is followed by an email asking for a reason and trying to convince you to stay. If you don’t reply, the account remains indefinitely active. If you do, they often still refuse to delete it—keeping user data in violation of global privacy standards.

I now have documented proof that female users across SakuraDate and NaomiDate are the same individuals, following clearly scripted interactions—sometimes even referencing profile details that don’t match the platform they're on. This confirms a coordinated, multi-platform scheme.

Even more alarming, these women appear to have administrative access, including:

Seeing blacklist/unblacklist status

Offering to send users credits (normally impossible)

Remaining online 24/7 without verification

I have screenshots, logs, and message histories backing all claims. One portion has already been submitted to SakuraDate support along with a formal demand for a full refund.

This review will remain live unless my refund is issued in full—with interest.

And to SakuraDate directly: before you attempt to deny or remove this review, know that all evidence has been archived and distributed to regulatory agencies and third-party watchdogs.

To readers: Do your research. Real dating sites don’t punish users for wanting authentic human connection. This one does.

Finally, I will be pursuing legal action for irreparable emotional harm and time lost. Since Cypress Tech Lcd, the company behind this platform, is based in the European Union, it is not immune to GDPR violations or international fraud lawsuits. I now have the evidence necessary to support every word—and I will use it.

Total SCAM site. AVOID. You can drop thousands of dollars and you'll have nothing other than some chats, letters, and videos exchanged. It all looks too polished to be real. And, every woman writes and speaks in perfect English!!! How is that possible to write with zero spelling mistakes; every message, every letter is perfectly written.

The most fake scam site I have ever seen. AI altered profile images and fake people with fake names and fake stories. I don't know how this operates. Since this review, SakuraDate have requested through Trust pilot for my personal details or my review may be taken off line. I will NOT be giving them ANY personal details. I stand by my review and this echoes countless other negative reviews here and elsewhere. I even question the reality of the positive reviews because a lot of them seem fake too. How about they give me their personal details? Unbelievable chutzpah. Every profile I saw seemed to be professional modelling photography. I am not saying any more. If Sakura Date refute my experience, then provide the public with verified SUBSTANTIATED examples of people who have married or had successful meetings through their site. This is MY PERSONAL opinion here and MY experience. If someone else has had a positive experience, good for them.

I am very regretful for signing up on this site and spending any money. In my view it is an elaborate scam, which I will explain. First, They are not clear on the criteria to get contact information from the women and block any attempt to provide contact info. The site makes you buy credits for which you use to write letter look at pics..EVERYTHING IS CHARGED EVEN TIME. The people write you letters and send 10 pics each is 10 or 20 credits which add up fast!! My experience is the ‘ladies’ send you lots of letters and attached the same pics over and over to get you to spend credits. Some ladies seemed legit but many contact you asking to write letters and send letters. Being experienced in AI/Machine Learning, it felt very much like it was a bot, the key was the same pics and the canned responses. Obviously I cannot verify this and it is only my experience but I did escalate to their support group and they offered 30 credits!! Which is nothing. Maybe there are Legit women there but if there is this element of paid actors or Bots then its basically a scam b/c they contact you first and you never know and spend your money are garbage.

Scammers. They only taking money from you.

To be honest, I was sceptival, but I recently went on a first date thanks fot Sakura. I thought it went pretty well, I took her to my favorite restaurant in London, but she unmatched me a few days later... I guess I should start over and find a new match, but it's a little disappointing.

Sakuradate is as Big a Scam as Ever – DON’T USE IT!!
Unfortunately, I saw the following 1 year-old comments after I had already lost thousands on Sakuradate over the past 3 months. I can personally confirm that all of the comments are correct because I have experienced the same problems.
This site is definitely a SCAM. I have paid almost $3,000.00 on this site with nothing to show for. This is the process so that you will know what signs to look for if you choose to waste your money like I did but hopefully, I have done all the work so that you will not incur such cost.
1. You meet someone(s)
2. You start a conversation and begin to interact with the female, (of course I'm speaking from a males perspective).
3. You start a conversation and begin to interact with the female, (of course, I'm speaking from a male perspective).
4. Upon spending approximately $1000 to $1,500 it will cost you another $500 to request her personal contact information.
5. Before requesting her contact information you will have to spend approximately 15 days minimum to get to know her (Sakura Date requirement) as well as a set dollar amount as previously mentioned.
6. During the communication with the female, she will bombard you with letters, videos, and photos that will cost you credits ranging from 10 to 50 which you will have to purchase.
7. The female will continue to do this and once you reach the credit amount to request her contact information it will cost you 500 credits which goes to Sakura Date.
8. At this point she will give them permission to give you her contact information.
9. At this point, she will permit them to give you her contact information.
10. NOW THIS IS THE CRITICAL PART, once you have their contact information,
11. After receiving her contact information the photos, letters, pictures, and even level of communication start to decline or they will stop responding to your emails or you will start receiving messages such as my job/work is keeping me busy, I have a sickness or death in the family, my internet/phone is acting up, my phone stop working and I need to purchase another one, I don't like that you don't trust me, and so on. These are common excuses to avoid messaging you, RED FALGES.
Conclusion: Once a certain dollar amount has been spent on any particular lady there is some form or level of benefit or compensation for that lady, but to what extent I do not know. But the true intention here is to SCAM men out of their money. As previously mentioned based on the amount that I spent, I obviously communicated with more than one woman with the same or similar results. Their goal is to keep you (the man) buying and spending credit on letters, photos, and videos, so they will engage you in conversation attempting to drive you to their letters and push you to watch their videos and not just you but more or multiple other men at the same time. If there are real women on the site with good intentions the majority of bad women will corrupt the site, and that's if the site isn't already corrupted which I believe it is because they are the ones offering the incentives to the females for keeping the men cashing out by purchasing more and more credits.
So in my opinion and experience, this site is a SCAM, don't waste your time or money.
Sakuradate's reply to this review is the same as their form response to every bad review, and there are many of them. Many, if not all, of the women on their site are fakes. If they were really concerned about my assertions they would have addressed them long ago because THE SAME ASSERTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE BY OTHER REVIEWERS FOR YEARS. And unlike sites that monitor what their users say and do, I have never seen a user whose profile has been blocked or removed for scamming or any other misuse of their site. Plenty of details were provided in my review but they did not explain or otherwise address any of them on their reply. If they were genuinely concerned about customer satisfaction they would have a customer service phone number and would have responded to the emails in which I complained that the "woman" who obtained my contact information was supposedly unable to use that information to contact me. I experienced the same scamming conduct by the website and the "woman" as is described in item 11, above. I will add to this review if Sakuradate ever addresses any of my concerns.
One last thing, don't be fooled by the positive "reviews" you will see on paid advertiser sites on dating and weddings. You will see that they are completely contradicted by actual user reviews like those on this and similar sites.

I was one of those who were stupid enough to be enticed on to this site. As with all of these scam sites these use women, which always works. This is not a dating site. I have demanded that my profile be removed but the AI generated Customer Service cannot do this simple action because it cannot understand the request. The good reviews are all fake.

company making fake reviews on here with 5 stars..lmfao..total fraud behind this company no woman is really the one in photo its all AI doctored model photos..i met a real person who has a stolen set of photos still being used on their site for past year..total scam company

Scam site as they are all of this company ( sakuradate, okamour, sofiadate) , made to rip people wallets using bot and fake profiles !!!
Stay away from this company’s dating sites , keep yourself and your money safe

This is a total scam that preys on lonely me to just get your money. You will never ever meet a girl in real life. And you will literally spend 1000’s trying to. Don’t waste your money or time.
