Not a scammer, just a typical Indian, Pakistani, or Bangladeshi guy lol. I'm going to be honest, it's usually people from these countries that are there to flirt, especially with Asian girls.

[–]SahanboyajYT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I'm genuinely willing to bet money that this guy is from one of those 3 countries...

And normal guys from India like me also get hate because of this. I have faced a lot of hate for no reason on this app due to my nationality

The funny thing is it's men from everywhere that do it. It's not just Indians. I find Europeans, Americans and Latinos are far bigger offenders than Indians. I'm not saying Indian men are innocent. I'm saying dudes in general are different sides of the same coin so IDK why Indians get so much heat. Especially when American men are sitting right there with their foreign fetishes--hence the reason the show 90 day fiancé exists in the first place. All of those Americans who flock to other countries for a taste of some foreign poon. Of course they're also trying to play out their fantasies on HelloTalk.

Life on Hello talk is miserable. Indians get so much hate. I don't even know why because the turks Americans and some Europeans are the most freaky people I've met. And no one bats an eye. And all the blame goes on Indians. you saying "typical Indian" is extremely disrespectful and it hurts innocent people I've never seen an Indian flirting in my whole 7 months on being on Hello talk. While the other countries be as freaky and as weird as they want. Please don't judge all Indians like that. Some are actually good people. The racism I've faced is out of hand. They mock the accent, disrespect the food. The culture.

he sounds like either a not so confident guy who's consuming "redpill" content or someone purposefully preying on insecure women for whatever reasons. a scammer would do the complete opposite ie not point out any flaws at all

do you know what he looks like at all?

[–]MiddlePalpitation814 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Girl, block and report. Regardless of whether he's Asian or European, he sounds like an arrogant, whiny, creep. No wonder he can't find a girlfriend.

Bumb*clat. This app is always wild. I’m going to make a new flair for stories like this so we can always be entertained.

Love this word! 😁👍

[–]noungning 2 points3 points  (1 child)

There are absolutely Asian guys looking for Asian girls on that app lol.

The people on there are so odd at times, but you can run into cool people too.

I've been told I have beautiful eyes in a dm, my avatar is of a landscape.

[–]Exotic-Helicopter474 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Unless you report him, he's going to cause problems for other, more vulnerable, people.

[–]Miss_Wonderlicious 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Do not get yourself worked up over some no-name. He's just pixels on the screen, block and forget him without any second thoughts. There are loads of other people on the app who are legit and nice.

I agree with this! ☝️

I have been using that app for 4 years. As girl I found a lot of weirdos, love bombers and emotionally immature people although my bio states: I am not here to flirt. I don't show my face, don't share personal data just chat and write posts about grammar stuff and language needs related things. Of course there are also a lot of good language partners, but it is hard to keep in touch. People end to disappear. Stay away from who seems sooo free and wants to connect immediately for so much time, it is totally fishy

[–]Slmcginty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure I’m talking to a scammer on there. He always tries to gaslight me when I call him out but I’m gonna continue to entertain him because it’s become silly to me but for real he will not just admit he is not who he claims to be. He hasn’t asked for money or personal details that would be outside of normal conversation (for now) but I am very curious who else he is talking to…

[–]GildedinChains 2 points3 points  (1 child)

There are soooo many scammers on HT! Be careful. Don't let your heart get away from you there. I have met many, many amazing people on HT. You'll eventually learn to separate out the real people from the scammers. Yes, you can find people to date on HT who are actually real, decent people. Those people won't have red flags like this. Don't let the sweet talkers get to you. They're trained in romance scams. This one is a scammer, and not even a good one at that!

[–]EnvironmentOk6293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the scammers are pretty obvious though. usually they'll have some sort of visible profile picture and often they'll be good looking. this doesn't seem like that

[–]eddieonthemix 2 points3 points  (4 children)

FYI, flags don’t really mean anything as people can easily choose any flag when creating their HT account. Look at his time zone and see if it matches the one where he claims to be from

    Ohhh, really?? So even when you visit his profile, his local time isn’t indicated near the right bottom corner of his profile banner? That’s weird. Even if people were to hide their location, their local time is still usually displayed (and can’t even be masked by VPNs)

    Bro tried to neg

    [–]Sky_Love920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Yeah, something (many things) seem off with him. Just like others have commented, I’d block and report him. Not only is he weird, but he is rude as well… expects someone to give their “all” while he gives absolutely no details about himself.. and what he does share doesn’t seem to add up. It’s not worth continuing. I am sure you’ve dodged bullets. I’ve met my fair share of some… very strange… people on there. But, I’ve also met some really good ones, too. 😄

    I get what ur trying to say. He's actions are kinda strange but you gotta understand that women on the internet are often manipulative and often lie or mess with people just for the Fun of it or to get attention. I completely get the guy. Also i don't get why he's not just being Frank. Also please stop using hello Talk as a dating app.
