Purefondle has a low Alexa rank, which means that it is not that popular. The website speed is Very Fast which indicates an optimal user experience. The website also shares the same server as 1,383 other websites, which suggests that it might be a low-budget operation. The website has been registered only in February 2020, but the footer mentions the copyright date as 2018. This is very likely intentional so that users think the website is more trustworthy than it actually is.
During my research, I found that there are multiple websites like Purefondle that are clones of each other. These are:
There are different pricing options between $40 to $70 as per the duration of the massage.
On the surface, these websites portray themselves as providing massage services but the About Us page reveals that the services being provided are more intimate, probably even sexual in nature. There are videos from unrelated channels embedded which show things such as ‘Nuru Massage’ and ‘Tantric Massage’ that have strong sexual undertones.
The page also carries form positive customer reviews, but these could easily be fake as there is no way to verify them.
When I checked the registration process, I found that this seems to be a very comprehensive scam. I was propositioned through a dating app from a local "certified masseuse". She connected to me on Instagram and I asked relevant questions such as her certification, CoViD safety measures and similar queries.
What raised an alarm was the Nuru massage part - I would assume any type of paid-for sexual contact is illegal and here they are promoting it on a web site. Nonetheless, she sent me the link to sign-up. There is zero information on the website that I can search, the parent company is not on BBB, even though the site itself is somewhat professional. I tried to get more info from the masseuse but she is adamant about signing up through the site and kept spamming me with videos and images. It was not a very professional dialogue.

Scamadviser Verification
The Scamadviser page of Purefondle has not been claimed by the company.
Though Purefondle tries desperately to convince users that it is trustworthy, even using the word ‘trust’ multiple times, the website gives very little reason to believe that it is a genuine business. There is no social media presence and there are no contact details such as a phone number or address given. The only way to contact the company is by email, however, I found that the email ID does not actually work.
The reviews for Purefondle and its related websites are negative. Users have complained that after entering their credit card information, they were signed up for subscriptions of $39.99/month on multiple websites without their knowledge, none of which provide massage services. As a result, money was being deducted from their accounts every month, with there seemingly being no way to cancel the subscriptions.
There is a high likelihood that Purefondle and the 5 related websites are scams. Purefondle and the clones websites all have a Trust Score of 1%, which means that it is extremely risky to use these websites. You can read more about Purefondle’s Trust Score here.
The websites are deceptive in nature as they do not seem to actually provide any massage services. Purefondle is trying to mislead users into thinking that it has been active since 2018, when it has only been registered in February 2020. The services being shown have questionable legality, but in any case, it seems PureFondle doesn’t actually provide any of these services. Purefondle and the related websites only exist to trick users into signing up for subscriptions on unrelated websites. The positive reviews seem to be fake and users are forced to share credit card information under the pretence of age verification. There is no information given about the company itself. The only contact method provided is an email ID that was found to be inactive. Therefore, it is recommended for users to avoid using Purefond and related websites.
Purefondle is among many websites that claim to provide genuine services, only to trick users into signing up for expensive subscriptions.. Visit the links below to know about similar scams and what you can do if you fall victim to them.
