Just had another single woman profile that turned out to be fake. Reported it and will wait to see what happens which is fair enough.

Our issue is this profile was verified by a single guy. Why isn't the single guy profile shut down as well? Would help to eradicate some of the fakes.

What made her fake? Was it an actual fake profile or something along the lines as she wouldn't meet ye. I've been called fake when I've said no to people. The word gets thrown around a lot when people don't get their own way on here.

That's not to say there isn't fake profiles there are but they are usually pretty easy to spot. And yes some do have veries as well,and I do agree with anyone who has knowingly given a fake Veri there should be repercussions on them.

its not about getting turned down,rejected for a meet lol,the fact is being a free site ur always going to get fake profiles setting up and with how easy it is to re make an account then when they get removed they are back on 5 mins later with a new one,its in everyones intrest to report the fakes as it will save others having their time wasted by them,its scary to think what profiles are out there as if they are sick enough to pretend to be a female or cple then what could happen if a single girl was to agree to get picked up one night in the car,anyone that is legit that gets questioned surely dont mind explaining why they dont have veris,filled in profile,no pictures,fab verified ect ect,

We use a rule that about 75% of people on this site are either timewasters, fakes, dreamers, chatters or some other category that results in a non meet.

We have probably got it about right with 121 meets and can't remember the last time we had a let down.

The majority of our meets are in clubs, parties or swingers holidays and this site is great for that type of arrangement.

We only meet initially for a social drink and find timewasters leave us alone, no problem if no play as we generally have had a nice evening in the pub.

I report fakes all the time, but question…. Does Fab actually remove from the site or just makes it so I can no longer see them?

What exactly do you mean by fake?

Also, what's the actual definition of a woman on here anyway?

There is a guy on as a mfcouple, who we ended up meeting and playing with a few times because it was quite fun. He's still on as a couple even though he isn't. We've met & played with a few other mfcouples in the area who had the same experience with him. He's a nice chap and maintains his story as to why she's not with him. So we all feel mean reporting him.

As long as he's not meeting you as a couple and dropping it on you on the door step that his mrs is ill and he's come along, I don't really see the issue.

As long as he is open that it's the guy chatting and meeting, what his profile says is pretty irrelevant isn't it?

Does being selective on here make someone fake?

If you can provide evidence that someone is fake (ie links to sites carrying an image or messages that clearly show the profile to be fake) will be removed but baseless allegations due to rejection won't result in any action being taken.

Maybe we can assume the OP is fake, they started a thread and then never commented on it again.....

Have had two "couples" contact and chat. One had six verifications but send me pics of three different ladies as being his wife.

I don't know maybe just me being overly cautious!!

Sooo many fake profiles on here now - scary thing is some people are actually verifying them (!!). Male profiles that are fake are popping up more and more now too.

Just to clarify,the profile was using picture from websites as far back as 2008 and was linked to many different porn sites. We hadn't arranged any meets with this profile so its not a case of being rejected and us complaining out of spite or whatever.

We had been contacted by another couple who had the same issue with the profile so it wasn't just us.

The profile has now been removed but the single guy who verified it will probably still be here as the veri was hidden so no idea who it was which was our biggest bugbear in the situation.

If you have concerns about a profile then please report it so Admin can have a look.

Here is an explanation from Admin from another thread on how they deal with reports.

******Just a quick note. If people report others and we can verify that they have broken site rules, we always take action (either a first and final warning, partially suspended account, fully suspended, mixture of the above).

Every single report sent via the REPORT link is reviewed. Clearly it's not in our interests to have people on here who are bad for the site. Equally we need to verify what has been reported and be fair to those who have been reported.

Admin

PS. we never provide feedback on what has happened. It's just not practical given that we get 100s of reports a day.

Here is what the page says after a report has been submitted:

Your feedback has been saved.

A website admin will shortly review your feedback and take the necessary action. After reviewing the evidence available to us, we may disable an account, remove a user, disable certain aspects of that user's account or issue a warning.

By leaving feedback you help improve the site for everyone who uses it. Thank you.******
