Darlene Daggett had high hopes of finding her ideal partner when she took out a "CEO level" membership with a dating service.
But the retired corporate executive with the QVC shopping channel, who spent US$150,000 (NZ$206,157) signing up with the company, was to be sorely disappointed.
The company, Kelleher International, promised ideal matches from around the globe, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.

Instead, Ms Daggett, a 62-year-old divorced mother of four, was introduced to a procession of incompatible suitors, including men who were married, mentally unstable or felons, according to documents filed in a federal court.
