Diners Club and Mail Order Brides

Diners Club Offers Payment Plan for Vietnamese Brides (http://humantrafficking.change.org/blog/view/diners_club_offers_payment_plan_for_vietnamese_brides)

Diners Club Ends Relationship with Mail Order Brides Service (http://humantrafficking.change.org/blog/view/diners_club_ends_relationship_with_mail_order_brides_service)

I saw this original link on Racialicious and it was updated with the second one. Basically a Diners Club affiliate partnered with Vietnamese Brides International to provide a payment plan option to purchase a mail-order bride with your credit card. It cost $167 monthly (interest-free ?!?) and you don't even need to make your first payment before you receive your new wife! And if you fail to pay for your wife, you didn't need to return her! There are other ways for the creditors to recoup their losses. (WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?!?)

This sickened me. I'm glad the concerned people of change.org were able to alert Diners Club so that they terminated the relationship, but it's a scary world when you can purchase a human on credit.

Really? Now think about it for a moment because its ridiculous.

First, the Department of Homeland Security has something to say about it. Second there are endless papers, interviews and evidence that the couple have met numerous times ... there's no such thing as buying a wife who gets on a plane and arrives at your door. Not before perhaps a year of immigration hoops you jump through including standing in front of someone from the US government who interviews you and her. Anyone believing this crap is just idiotic and knows nothing about how it all works

At first glance online dating may seem to be very promising, but I am sure that some people who have tried it, found it very frustrating and unfulfilling, while others find it satisfying and exciting. Obviously, there must be some tips which other people know, that you may not and I would like share some of them with you in this article.
