This website is the primary electronic link these people have to the outside. You can write an inmate an old fashioned letter and they will get it, but this is both quicker and about the same cost.

YES, these people all need money. Many are victims of an overly aggressive legal system. Most of these are very poor people that had to rely on the "Public Defender" because they nor their family had money for representation.

If your goal is to write someone and give them some peace in a system that exploits them, then understand this. Some will ask you for money or for "stamps" to write back and you should be prepared for this. A very few have been able to make enough money from their labors over the course of time to buy an allowed tablet for writing and music. But it takes a lot of time as their pay is less than minimum wage of the 1960s.

If you are writing to find a love of your life, or wanting naughty photos or naughty talk, you are here for the wrong reason.

You should be writing to them so that they can have some normalcy in their lives and you can help another person. Think of these people as soldiers of past wars that anxiously waited for an email from family and friends

Don't forget that no matter how bad your day was, theirs was lots worse.

I wrote several women strictly as penpals, and yes I bought stamps and telephone time for some. It was not expensive and the telephone time allowed the women to talk to their children and family. One was able to rejoin her children, another found herself a boyfriend and got married while she was inside. A third will never get out, but was a nice person to talk to.

So please write one and say hello, but remember that sooner or later you will need to help financially with stamps or with phone money.

Knowingly letting inmates place ads with old pictures, and knowingly advertising inmates that they know are scamming. Most of the inmates on here this it their platform to get you! Its a shame because their getting away with it, like its just such a nice thing to write someone locked up thats how u feel, but they are on here for a reason. About 80-90% of these inmates are on here to get money from women, and this company knows it, they charge them, make money off of scamming, they should be closed down! If you notice its the same inmates over and over no celebs inmates no inmates that have money or a family, just inmates that need money and dont't have families, the penpals will get left by women or men that leave them, then they have to place ads over and over!
They do it because they need money! Their are no inmates that have power just inmates with none its a scam i know first hand don't fall for the " i love you " after two weeks its impossible to love someone that quick!
They are trained at this and train young people to do what they do! See the same inmate over and over he's a con man point blank and bet your $#*! he does not look like the pic as advertised! You've been warned!
