I was going to write about this yesterday, I had a whole post explaining that thousands of Jews would have never known about Shaindy.com if Vos Iz Neias hadn’t published the NY Post article yesterday basically saying they needed a good juicy posts so they could have a lot of shocked people, it was juicy, but it sounds so fake and as always I have my own conspiracy theories about the site.
For everyone who has no idea what I am talking about, Shaindy.com is a website supposedly created by an “orthodox” man from Brooklyn who wanted to provide a place for other religious Jews to meet each other for extra-marital affairs. Shocking you may say, although after all the stories of wife swapping I hear from the five towns and Flatbush I would say its a long time coming, although I wonder why anyone would pay $99 when they could go to craigslist for free.
The following is from the about us section of Shaindy.com:
Shaindy.com is a site for married people who are looking for love and affairs outside of their marriage. This is a site where you can speak and interact with married man and women with out jeopardizing your marriage and get support from other married men and women who seek the same. This is a site where you can concentrate on men and women of the jewish community, and meet like minded people who would otherwise not have the opportunity to do this.
“shaindy.com” was created by a Jewish couple from the NY area, after they realized that there is many in the community who are looking for a site like this one. This was created mostly due to the fact that there are hundreds and thousands of jewish people who are miserable in their marriage or just need a little something extra , and looking for a fling, love or one-night-stand, but don’t want to jeopardize their relationship. Shaindy.com will allow you to lead a normal life and enjoying it as you go along. HOWEVER, YOU DONT HAVE TO BE JEWISH TO BE A VIP ON THIS SITE, AS A MATTER OF FACT SOME JEWISH WOMEN PREFER NON-JEWISH MEN AS ONE-NIGHT STANDS AND AFFAIRS.
On “shaindy.com” no one will see your pictures when they log on. All the pictures that you upload is held in a private gallery on our system, and only the people you grant access to, will be able to view your photos, the others will only see a blank photo shadow. This is meant to protect your identity and to be a VIP member with us wuth full confidence.
This entire about us section made me realize something, first of all I think the site is a scam. Shaindy.com’s about us section is very amateurish but also with the invitation extended to non-Jews it really doesn’t make it much different then say Jdate or Craigslist, tons of people are looking for love and extra-marital affairs on both those sites.
The other thing to think about is this, who knows who runs this site. I wouldn’t trust a site like this in a million years, it is so ghetto and generic – it could have been started by a bunch of frum thugs who want to make money by blackmailing all of the members when the time comes. I am not an investigative journalist, but it would be interesting for someone to look into the site to see how real it really is.
If its real, it may good that people are taking longer to get married, for there may be a marriage crisis rather then a shidduch crisis.
Oh and their pictures are so random – like it might as well be e-harmony or something
Oh and Shmuely Boteach who wrote Kosher Adultery was saddened by all of this…

First off I really like the new layout and design, much much better!
Second, I saw Chaptzem post about this, crazy idea of a site, and I can’t believe that people have no busha and would reach out to a site like that.
It reminds me of a blogger who followed me on twitter. Who is an actual whore, that’s bi and wants to sleep with specifically Jewish men and women, and she writes about these affairs, and I just can’t believe it. It disgusts me, I hadn’t known people are like that out there, and to go public with it, just shocks me.
To comment like someone on Vos iz neias “This person who started it is frum, I known him for a long time, he would only do something like this if it really was according to halacha”.
I think its sickening.
I apologize if this comes up twice.
After reading your last couple of posts on the Frumkeit-Sexual-Underground it sparks my curiosity of what Jewish Geography might sound like when two people meet under these kind of circumstances.
Mike – you are absolutely right
I would be shocked if one real woman signed up for the site
It’s such a prank site! Like the site the was selling kittens in shaped glass containers.
Wait, they take Paypal.
Ok. Scam.
Nice new layout, Hesh. Shaindy.com, thank G-d, seems to be defunct (right now)…
the fact that a scam like this would even apeal to anyone is sickening. it is just another way to spread anti- semitism since apparently it is not enough that we are known as being greedy and power hungry.
Justajew- your comment makes no sense – why would this site create anti-semitism?
there is no such website. I actually tried it just to see if it’s real.All it says is “Hit Webcenter all the tools you need to maintain your website” whatever… its all fake
Maybe it’s a scam by the “modesty patrol” after tiring of peeking in the elevators, via their secret cameras.
F*****d up! Site isn’t working either.
Its called shut down, hacked or scam – but whatever it is – I bet you it was flooded with traffic and either its servers went nuts, or the guy got spooked – because people will find out who it was and he will be cheremed big time.
I was intrigued to learn about this website for orthodox adulterers. It underscores the fact that the elemental erotic impulse is incoercible, no matter how religious a person may be. I was especially struck by this because my recently published novel, “Getting Enough,” deals with a Jewish middle-aged couple who indulges in adultery as a way of find0ing themselves. Then they discover to their astonishment that they are actually falling in love with one another for the first time after 26 years of a hate-ridden, acrimonious marriage. In other words, they had to live the experience of adultery in order to get out of themselves, find themselves agains, and then find one another. For more information, kindly access this website: http://www.strategicbookpublishing.com/GettingEnough.html.
This intimate story is played out against the backdrop of an over-the-top, larger-than-life Jewish family notorious for its coarse use of language and brutal frankness. I think you will find it an enjoyable read.
So basically its the Jewish Ashley Madison??? WOW
Apparently there was a New York Post article about this today. Found the following at http://blogs.jta.org/telegraph/article/2009/03/31/1004128/orthodoxadultrycom:
The New York Post reports on a new Web site aimed at Haredim looking to cheat on their spouses:
Hundreds of Jewish men and women who want to cheat on their spouses are flocking to a new Web site for ultra-Orthodox Jews seeking heretical hookups.
Shaindy.com — named for the founder’s first mistress — was launched March 19 by a modern Orthodox man from Midwood, Brooklyn, who says he got the idea from Hasids he met in chat rooms seeking adulterous action.
Roughly 350 members have signed up, said the site’s creator, Jerry, who refused to give his last name for fear of rabbinical retribution. He said 50 members paid the introductory fee of $99 for two years, while others have created free profiles. There have been another 200 inquiries from around the world.
People are really screwed up. Looks like they took the advice about starting a “frumslist” seriously. I wish them the worst of luck with their service.

I think I found the perverts name who made the site. Selling it to the highest bidder. Bids will start at $100 usd. Auto-win is at: $500 usd.
This information will guarantee your child a shidduch. Who wouldn’t want to marry the child of someone who shut down the #1 aveyrah website? You will be regarded as a super-shomrim member.
I won’t believe any guy in his right mind signed up for this site.
It’s either a scam, or its run by the Mishmeres Hatznius people themselves.
Oh lawd, the spam filter got the whois. Too bad your mediocre whois doesn’t have the real owners name.
Anyone want their child to have a shidduch?
Shaindy.com is down, so the cheaters have to resort to Craigslist as they did before Shanidy was created.
Anyone suspect the Internet Shormim are DDoSing shaindy?
My fellow on Facebook shared this link and I’m not dissapointed at all that I came to your blog.
can any1 give me a user name i wana check the site b4 i pay…
I heard about shaindy.com about a month ago.
I read an “interview” on sevenfatcow. The first thing I thought was bull shit ! this is one twisted fuck that wants to trap as many people as they can. I figured it would quickly drift away, obviously it hasn’t.
A bunch of mental midgets paying them to get fucked over ? Or some really slick bastards having people pay to be fucked over…or both.
I sent them an email and asked for an “interview” Yes I told them my name, I doubt I’ll get the time of day. I opened an”acct” but you cant do anything with your acct unless you give up your credit card number and pay to get fucked.
Giving up your credit card number on a “private” server or site that could be the latest biggest scandal and scam in the frum world is a sure way to prove that YOU GOT FUCKED !
What the fuck do I know though, I’m single, I’m blonde, I’m skinny and stacked. I’m far from the investigator or interviewer. I’m just a charachter made up in cyberspace.
Time will tell.
I think shaindy.com is an evil genious .
People cheat on their spouses just as people eat non kosher or stray from the path of religion. Yes its outrageous that people engage themselves in such illicit behavior but in this societal meltdown where there are justifications to degeneracy, I think the term shocking is outdated. It doesn’t mean we should condone and accept this kind of activity. But to still consider yourself a devoutly religious person after all of that is an oxymoron. This sick pig ought to review the 10 commandments especially about the part of adultery. If you have marital problems, see a counselor or a divorce attorney. Cheating on one’s spouse will not resolve your issues. It will only damage your relationship with your spouse. Adultery is a big F**k you to your spouse and the whole institution of marriage.
Does anyone know the ratio men to women on the site?
By the way I went to the site.I didn’t anywhere it talked about cheating spouses.I believe ideally it is a dating site.
Bsamim,
Probably 100 to zero.
i dont understand why pple even cheat when they are married. u have a wife for a bloody reason use her
