Most definitely Sakura is a scam!
Most definitely Sakura is a scam. I sincerely wanted to meet an Asian lady. They all are lying, deceitful and dishonest. Do not waste money on this site.

Total rip-off
This site is a bullsxxx scam. You must spend 900.00 to get contact info from somebody that wants to meet you. I'm retired on disability and was hoping to find a companion. Sakuradate took 900.00 for nothing except conversations. Be ADVISED, Do not do it!

Avoid at all cost
ok ok I admit I googled "dating website to meet Japanese women", and google provided links that suggested this Sakuradate.com. I subscribed with no picture and I started to received messages Red Flag! (on the second day I added a picture of an Italian Actor). I looked at the profiles, all very nice ladies, too nice, too good to be true. I understand people love to edit and photoshop their images, but the women here are all the same "filter" = Red Flag! All the messages are like "perfect break the ice flirty". In order to write back you need to buy credits. Please avoid, Do not trust any website recommending this!

The women do not seem to be who they say they are and if you look at where the site is based you will understand who it actually is from Cyprus. The women's images I suspect are catfishing or filtered like others. Had rude interaction with one of the women who seemed like it was scripted and maybe even ai to lure me into spending money on credits with how they engaged in the conversation always redirecting to be about you. Didn't bother sticking around long enough to find out. Not recommending.

This site is a total scam
This site is a total scam. I have tried twice and even contacted customer service. They told me I would have to spend around $1500. It's a total scam.
The girls on the other end know very well how to use the * key and block their info. They pretend well but it's all a big show to get you to burn up credits and buy more. Total scam. Don't waste your time or money.

I tried SakuraDate , ran into a bot immediately
I tried SakuraDate , the scam started the minute I logged on. I believe a bot started texting me and actually made some mistakes a human user would not make and tried to cover its mistake. I checked out SakuraDate on many websites like Reddit and a lot of closed discussions about the scams going on.
Look up SakuraDate on google. They run a sponsored ad at the top of the page and have a fake user review section that is a part of the ad and rates the website as a 4.9 (clever). There is no where on google that you can actually rate the website.

A SCAM!!! Do not use!!!
Essentially, I consider this site a scam or rip off as it’s not possible to date somebody that you meet on this site. In fact, the website does everything it can to block every form of contact you try to extend whether it’s email a telephone or any other means. They will block it. They restrict offline communication under the guise of ‘safety or security’ measures which is utter bullshit!
Their solution if you want to meet somebody that you found interesting is to buy 5000 credits which is about US$1200. Once they get that money security issues disappear!! Once you send that to them, they will initialize a contact form, but if you read the comments further on other reviews regarding this site and you will discover that doesn’t happen. You sit in limbo and they have your money.
The site is ridiculously expensive to contact or communicate with anybody you meet on it. You’ll eat up hundreds of dollars in a night and accomplish nothing. In short, STAY AWAY!
In their response to this post they don’t refute anything i have said - below is their response.
Safety and security are our top priorities. The platform operates within a structured environment where communication takes place through built-in features, and users are expected to follow the Terms of Service. This helps maintain consistency and protects interactions on the platform.
Sakura claim they offer Arbitration.. i intend to arbitrate with the site for all money back as this site is deceptive and misleading .. you cant meet and date on this website as it implies

Avoid at all costs
I would give this site negative stars if I could. Virtually all the profiles have professional model pics and are run by either system operators or financially motivated women. In both cases they will try to keep you chatting to spend as much money on the platform as possible. You will end up leaving with never talking to a real person and potentially thousands of dollars spent. The site will never let you leave. After spending an enormous amount of money chatting with a women, you can request contract info for a steep price. Once you do this the woman will ghost you.

I've been using Sakura date for a while now and I still haven't found anything sure women sending me videos to watch them masturbating and I'm like why would someone send something like that to someone they don't know the packages are ridiculous only to end up using them up because videos and photos cost credits and contact information is always blocked with stars and most of them are overseas in other countries like Ukraine and Columbia or Asia and these are women that a guy like me wouldn't have a chance with so Sakura date is a scam

Sakuradate is a total fraud
Sakuradate is a total fraud.
Its an automated service employing AI bots and or paid agents to catfish individuals into buying "credits" for communication. Its an "awful site" that makes account deletion difficult. NO IT MAKES ACCOUNT DELETION IMPOSSIBLE. ITS A TOTAL FRAUD.
I stand behind every word I state .
DARRELL NETHER they are a complete fraud.
“Sandy” their so called resolution manager is just as phony as the rest of them.
Ask them about David Mers another sakurasdate pile of Pondscum. This clown contacted me with asking for the sleazebag. He tried to extort me out of another $1500 dollars to get full access to all the girls and their contact information. He was attempting to pimp them out.
He asked me to invest and showed me a bs picture of stacks of cash.
THE GUYS A SLEAZEBALL.
THE SITE IS A DESPICABLE FRAUD.
MY NAME IS DARRELL NETHER AND I LIVE IN KENTUCKY USA AND I STAND BEHIND EVERY WORD I STATE.

It cost me over $250 to speak to a woman for a few minutes in the evening; they're completely crazy.
Scam site...
I asked for the woman's name, but I couldn't read it because the site blocked the information. The same thing happened to me. The woman asked for my name, I typed it in, and again, the site blocked it; only "xxxxxxxxx" appeared. This site is therefore completely useless; it's impossible to verify the identity of the person you're talking to, which makes it a goldmine for scammers. If you spend an entire evening writing, good luck, because it could cost you $1,000 or more. Furthermore, there's no privacy: all your conversations are analyzed, and the site blocks several messages and charges you for them. Avoid this site at all costs; it's teeming with scammers and fake accounts managed by artificial intelligence.

That's normal; I was using a different email address on your site. I'm not interested in hearing from you at all. I'm no longer on your site and I don't want anything to do with you.
And you know very well what's happening on your site; look at the comments, 95% of them are negative. That's no coincidence.

Scam site with 100% automated chat bots. You feel the severe disconnection and discomfort with every message sent by an acquaintance. Like a robot or AI bot talking not human. You ask for a recent photo or some footage where the lady mentions your name and you get bombarded with generic content probably stolen from social media. I believe whoever girl you may think you are talking to, the real person doesn’t even know their identity is being abused this way. Just go to a local coffee shop and find a genuine connection even with a single mom who is looking to date and who is looking for a real man is much better experience than this junk. Stay clear off this monetization machines. Register yourself with a real matchmaker that’s another good way to find your special person. Anything dating digital or online is a scam 100%

Its a scam with fake profiles so STAY AWAY from this website. I experienced a woman sending a photo on chat that was clearly not her and different to the online profile. The costs are very very high
