If its the site I think it is, we are on there. I guess there are fake profiles whichever site you join but also genuine people.
I did hear of people who would join, arrange meets and the address that they gave was that of an elderly couple who lived across the road from a pub. Some friends of ours were caught out. My guess is that these people got some kind of kick out of watching from the pub. These people would then leave the site and open another profile (using the same pictures) to do the same again. They were reported but the owners said they couldn't do much about it as they couldn't track the IP address or something like that (I'm not very techy). Suppose when it's a free site, these things can happen as you can open as many profiles you want.
There are some strange people out there!
No, this is far more sinister than a fake profile here and there which I agree is part and parcel of the whole experience. I have traced 72 fake profiles, 14 probable fakes and another 9 suspicious by association which I suspect all emanate from the one source. These are the ones I could establish with the data at my disposal, I would expect there would be more following hidden pointers. Only 16 of the fake profiles found have been suspended.
More than half of the suspect profiles have pictures with only 2 of them having common ones. It would follow that the miscreant has collected his picture stock from elsewhere. Deeply disturbing all round!
Wow! Some people have far too much time on their hands (them not you!). Why would anyone want to produce so many fake profiles? What's to gain?
Tbh, I have had to make plenty of time, just to follow all of the trails
The profile at the top of the pile ran a fake party scam across Nov/Dec which we got stung by. Because of the lack of cooperation from the site I started digging deeper. The breadth of the fake profiles has minded me to believe that there might be more than that to it but don't know what. A number of the profiles have been active on the site in the last week additionally...
