The odds of success in finding a FSU bride are dismally low. But you can decrease the odds of getting scammed by being careful and using Google.

How low are the odds? I know you said the odds increase with being careful. I just wonder if this is worth the potential heartache. I guess my biggest fear is the green card scam. If I lost loads of money I would have no-one to blame but myself. But if a FSUW played happy families for 2 years and then filed fake domestic violence charges and got me kicked out of my own home then that would be disasterous. I know alot of cops so I know the havoc malicious allegations can cause in a guys life. But I also know its a two way street. Everyone can manipulate the system or the authorities. Guys or girls. So I reckon of alarm bells started ringing in a relationship then hopefully I would know how to handle it. Most guys dont realise that even though Police have a fair idea allegations are malicious if they recieve a complaint of domestic violence then they must arrest and report to courts. That is not to say the man is guilty of anything - that is for the court to decide.

Kevin,
At one time I was thinking that the percentage is really low, so I asked a similar question in this thread:
http://ruadventures.com/forum/index.php?topic=7921.0
The responses I received contradicted the information I had read about or heard from others. It helped adjust my viewpoint of the process from, "you really need to be lucky" to "if you know what you are looking for and are careful you can find the one". Now does luck play a part, definitely, as in any relationship timing is so important but with increasing your knowledge (which you are doing by posting on this site) you'll probably dramatically improve your odds.
