Oppinion on the matter please
« on: May 17, 2011, 12:33:55 pm »
Good day everyone, a few days ago I received a reply from a lady on chnlove, and here she wrote this:

and one of my recent life photo in my office to you, i hope you will see a real ****!

What does she mean by: in my office ? I know from here profile that she can barely speak english and it got translated, what do you guys think?

Well... Was the picture taken in a office? Sounds to me like she means it is a real life photo of her, taken in her office (where she works?)

From what I can see in the photo, it was taken inside her agency. I can give you guys a link to the actual photo if you want.

How I know it's taken from inside the agency? Well in the photo on the back you can see some peoples working on photoshop and on the computer screen you can see the face of a lady, thus why I'm assuming they are photoshopping photos, the desks in the photo are the same as in the agency photos on the chnlove website, in the back you see a billboard with lots of pictures of ladies.

Right now I think I'm only trying to convince myself I got scammed. :D

Ah! Translators don't do the photoshopping? The photographers do.What you might be seeing is them setting up a profile?

As for photoshop I've used it alot in the past so I somehow recognize the layer, but please tell me what you think.

Sebastien , I can tell you .. one has to be careful .. but with a Mindset like this .. your not getting nowhere . There needs to be some trust in your Lady or just give it up .
Photo from a Office that looks like an Agency ? Well it would not be the first time , some of those Chnlove Women are actually working at one .. it's possible and convinient for them . Maybe they wont have to dish out $$$$$ when finding somebody ?
You need to stay positive and not put a negative spill on all her reply's , just because you have read Scam everywhere . If that was true , why even start going there ?

Well the story the thing is that I started talking with her, sorry she started talking with me, before I registred here. Also it's not the lady that I doubt it's the agency, you see it's the infamous P216 (infamous from what I've read and picked evrywhere), I guess I could be honest and just ask her straight up.

Pic looks authentic enough. Ironic with the whole photoshop team in the background though .. but thats China. When i went and had new pics for my visa extension the photographer photoshopped my pics and i looked 10 years younger. Thats just the way here. Chnlove takes it quite a step further though in many cases.

Get her off EMF and on webcam, everyone in China. And especially a young girl can get access to both computer, internet and QQ/MSN/Skype chat/cam easily. If they say they cant..... u go figure ;)

I would say it's an internet cafe also. I never saw an office with table cloths? If you want to see the agency office? Go to the ladies profile, then scroll down to the agency name and click on it. There should be pictures of the office.

As for the photoshop program? I don't know which one you have but mine is dark paneled. None I have had had white panels like the screen in the background of that photo.

I don't think that picture was even taken in China!  HAHAHA...sorry, I wanted to jump on the band wagon.  Seriously though, its good to be cautious.  But you can also be over cautious to the point of defeating yourself before you even get started.  I am not saying you are wrong, or right.  But without risk, you will get nowhere...especially not on this site.  If you are nervous of the agency, find a different lady from a different agency.  There are some really good agencies out there.

Seb , Maxx and others are correct it is not at p216 , but at a upmarket internet cafe or at a computer function place , I have visited several cafes in Changsha and there aint no tablecloths , but as they think it normal to photoshop all photo's in China this photo could be also , regards Sujuan and Robert .

Actually Sebastien, this picture was taken at the Changsha Love Bridge Agency offices. I attach a picture to confirm this. Same desks, same fake pillars in the background, same kind of computers. My picture was taken in May 2009. I know the exact address, if you're interested. I was scammed, but this was before I got wise. So I would be very careful. She may go to the agency to check on her replies and maybe use their computers. She may be completely legit. But the manager of this agency is slimy and I would not put anything past him. Just be firm and settle for no less than webcam, QQ number and if you go, be careful not to sign anything. Also, think about if you want to accept their 300 yuan ride from the airport, the 400 yuan a night hotel (in the same building as the agency), and the 400 yuan a day translator.

Found this a little interesting? Did a little detective work and going by the columns and the blue paint I would say this is the redecorated p216. It looks like they took the red curtain down and tiled the floor? (see pics)

I would say just proceed cautiously. You can't take each word written as some sign cause they can have a wrong word in there easily, not meaning what your reading. (like my office) This could be analyzed to death but in the end it's up to you.
