How to stop fake profiles

Jump to newest
 

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

I've had a lot of fake profiles message me in the past and I've heard others have the same problem so I thought I'd share a really useful website to help spot them.

https://tineye.com/

I use this website to do a reverse image search on images they send and it usually finds some results, especially for topless and other sexy photos they send.

If I get any results there I report the profile.

Anyway, thought it might help some other people out!

To be fair since I first started using tineye 15 years ago it's always been better than Google reverse. Obviously if you're browsing in chrome then GR is quicker and no need to save/copy an image.

But OP - it's been a stable tool of many site users since its existed.

Sadly many slip through the pic mods nets but just keep reporting any suspicious images. Just because they're elsewhere doesn't always mean they're not genuine, as many have content on other sites. But it's a useful tool if you're in doubt.

I reported a couples profile last night after seeing pictures I took of my late wife taken a few years ago.

I can prove there are fake since I have the rest of the pics on the set . Don’t understand since there are verified by a few people. On asking why they didn’t respond . Just hope admin get back since I was unable to attach a picture as proof .

Reverse image search no longer works in chrome and hasn't for about 6 months now but I'm not sure if that's only on the Android version.

I can't be bothered with the checking of photos in that manner, complete waste of my time...I just move on if I think a profile is fake..

I wouldn’t have bothered to report it but it’s the fact my wife died of cancer two years ago and feel it’s just below the belt . But life is full of weird people I suppose

Works on mine. I just hit the camera icon in the search box and added a screenshot Fox had sent me of a dress she wants and it took me straight to the retailers website.

It's called 'Google lens' now but does the same job.

I've used Google lens but it used to open automatically when long pressing on a pic and you could search the pic in situ rather than having to download it.

Woah. That's brilliant. Just tried it, and it works. (New technology always surprises me...a bit like neanderthal man making fire for the first time).

Thanks A, great advice

That must be really upsetting for you, I really hope that admin sort it and quickly.

Tonypandy.

Best one I ever had was guy using an image of Paul Hollywood. OK, it was a pretty obscure image, taken at launch night of new brewery in London. (The owner was son of family friend or something similar)

Problem is, I was at the launch.

So when this guy was adamant the image was him, started asking him obscure questions.

Or men, top tip for you.

If a newly formed profile of a gorgeous twenty something messages you wanting to do the sex stuff, there's a chance, just a slight chance mind, it might be Dave in his mam's bedroom.

Or you know, give it a whirl and see what happens.

I, for one, appreciate Dave's compliments.

Thanks Dave
