FabSwingers.com forum: Fake profiles

Maybe someone can give me advice or an admin can give me an actual explanation.

I’ve had 4 profiles in the last couple of days of people using pictures from Reddit, twitter and even porn or “pay to play” sites to pretend they are someone they are not, I’ve reported them and nothing has been done, I’ve put posts out warning people and they’ve been removed. What on earth does that do for the site and its users??

Just focus on profiles that are verified. It's normally quite easy to spot fakes accounts, but I'm sure a few are more devious.

You can even filter the messages to stop none verified from contacting you.

Hope that helps x

I appreciate the good advice but it’s more the censoring of me trying to warn people and nothing being done about it, you know?

Admin deal with every report they receive but since there are hundreds a day it can take time. My next post will say how they deal with reports.

Naming and shaming is against site rules for obvious reasons.

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.******
