Okay, asking if this is rude or normal or safe practice fom my side.

Few times I've got chatting to a woman or couple, seem to get along and profile seems okay but hidden verification and something just telling me to be wary.

I just ask, can we do simple hello on cam/tele or similar before moving forward ?

I only do this when something seems off, never know if I'm coming across as the ass hole.

You can ask but you can be told to F off.

Personally its a red flag for me so wouldnt meet without a TG call or something to see that theres a couole there who resemble their pics

Westmeath The West.

There are plenty of fake profiles out there with 4 or 5 veries, usually of men, women, and couples.

When they're hidden, raises a flag for me, always!

So no harm to ask for video call etc.

You have to navigate Fab whatever way works for you. If this gives you a level of confidence in the person you're chatting with then you're right to do it.

I wouldn't agree to it mind but I'm navigating Fab in my own way 😊

You can ask though you might get a no.

I've my verifications hidden as I like to keep private who I meet.

There's plenty of fake profiles on here. Theres also well verified profiles who I've found to be timewasters.

Always go with your guy OP if it doesn't feel right. Don't waste your time.

I had a lady ask me to send a pic so she would know i wasn't a serial killer. I sent it but said I nearly sent one of me with a meat Cleaver. of course she really wanted to see that then so I obliged.

Sadly those kind of photos are often sent voluntarily.

You can ask for whatever you want.

We wouldn't comply with any such request, but that's how we choose to operate, far too many nosy and indiscreet people here.

To each their own...

We’d be too nervous of a tech savvy creep recording us on a cam / video call, so it’s a hard no from us for any request like that. Has to be in person face to face for us.

You're applying due diligence - something most men fail to exercise on here. Stick with your convictions and principles. If people refuse that's their prerogative but it always confirms that you're not compatible.

I have some of my veris hidden for several reasons which are no one else's buisness. Some people have also left so the veri disappears but the number doesnt.

You do fab whichever way suits you OP.If you feel you need to chat before on video then yes of course you can ask. I personally would refuse to do it as I absolutely despise video calls and don't do them even with friends and family. But that is me. And I despise people on here pushing for them but that just shows incompatibility in my eyes anyhow.

Ive asked a few dodgy female ones in the past for a photo of them holding a piece of paper with ""the general"" written on it. Only 1 ever did it. Fair play too her if shes ready this 👏 .

We would refuse that request as we don't do face pics of any description for our protection.

Go with your gut. If doesn't feel right probably not right. I read profile and if say anything different from profile I tell straight up no.

Recently I chatting to a lady for a week or 2. All was going good. Swapped Snap C and kept chatting. When I shared my face pic all was deleted and blocked. Very annoying. A little sorry you not my type or something. But just blocked is so annoying.

In jest I used to do similar , but I'd ask for today's newspaper along side a certain pose,something simple like 3 fingers over the heading , mixed results the ones that blocked were either fakes or didnt get my humour so was a win win , !! But I never actually received a picture !! And still friendly with most

Lest Mr Rios above thinks we are really being dickheads we really don't do this.

I did ask for a shoe on the head photo once because it was flirty and funny and she did indeed take the photo and we did indeed meet.

I think it's quite funny the shoe on the head or any other comic requests.
