ANOTHER FRIENDLY REMINDERS:
1. Please be careful with scammers posing as British with handsome faces in their pictures. Don't believe them unless you see them in cam or it still is not reliable coz technology helps them to use models' faces.
2. For men, please be aware of the scam going on posing as young women in remote countries, needed to go back to the US and needs financial assistance.
3. Never ever give your home address to anyone especially if they told you they will give you some gifts. Those packages will end up in Malaysia wherein illegal content will be detected and will ask you to pay lots of money for tax or red tape.
4. Don't believe in any baby sitting jobs where you have to pay half of your ticket.
5. There is no such thing as money from the dead that needs to be transferred under your name.
6. Don't get involved in any illegal transactions from anyone who are doing trading with this and that company and needs you as a dummy. You will end up paying for a whole box of flour ... etc that will be delivered in your doorsteps.
7. Crossoverprofiles is not doing any lotto game here. If they do ... you will find it in your home page.
8. Don't open any link that arises your curiosity like ... they caught you in camera ... etc. it's a virus.
9. Don't meet in private.
10. If you feel like having intimate relationship with someone you met in the internet... ask for medical certificate... fully authenticated... make sure that he/she is free from VD, HIV and hepatitis C.

Hi the administrator of the said site is:

There are lots of companies that are similar to royale business club.
There are 2 types of method that some companies uses (1) Pyramid Scheme (illegal scam) and there is (2)Network Marketing (legitimate, legal business model). You can asked them what they are? and check if they are really legitimate.
My opinion is, if you are good in selling (and you believe in the product) then maybe you can join but, if you are not then it is not a company that you’ll likely to join in. It is really up to you.
