Does anybody watch this? We are addicted to it, its such a great show! Shows you the dangers of sites like this and what you can do to at least try and get around it For example, anybody that we feel like we would meet, we always do a quick Tineye/Reverse image search on the pics! Caught out so many people this way :p

So, does anybody else watch? :p

We do but every episode seems to fueled by somone who just cant do some basic googling, or have a bit of common sense. "Oh im in an online relationship we live 10 mins away but haven't met".

Its just a show designed around helping stupid people tin eye or GIS.

Reverse image search using tineye and google and other things.

You know how on Google images you can search for an image? Well, doing this means you can search USING an image, rather than text. It then searches the web to see if that same image exists and gives you the results.

We use it a lot to find people who take porn pics of random amateur sites to boost their profile! Its so easy to catch people out, saves time! C x

This is a hobby of mine when working away!

I've actually managed to bust a fair few profiles 'live' during forum threads !

All good fun and does amuse me the way people draw attention to themselves !

The people on the show may not have much of any common sense to just google their "love of their life", but hey, it makes great telly when you see a guy has been in love with a girl for 7 years and finds out its actually a 38 stone black guy called Bubba. C x
