No I don't think so either. It really is deceptive. They aren't doing it to "entice" communication, they are doing it to get the person to pay to be able to reply back to the "person" who just contacted them... which is fake.
People can't get away with everything by putting it in the TOS especially when you dealing with customers. It would be a little different if it was a B2B type business transaction, but when dealing with the public (customers) the courts are going to error on their side and if what you are doing looks bad, as in this case, i doubt they would win.
Not knocking them, i believe all adult dating sites work this way or do similar things. I would be surprised if Match.com or some of the bigger mainstream sites do this though. They have attorneys on staff that would likely advise them against it.
