Manchester and that's all you need to know

Why would someone send pictures of themselves saying they live in America and also claiming the pictures are taken in their home, yet I can clearly see the plug sockets and they are British ones???

Am I correct that British standard 3 pin plug switches is only available here?

There's 3 pin elsewhere but we have a more cumbersome, squarish type.

But do let us know!

Titz Towers, North Notts

I once had a message from a great looking guy who must have been on holiday when he had his photos done. There aren't many people in Scunthorpe who have a left hand drive car and funny sockets

They have three-pin plugs elsewhere - Singapore, for example - but not in America where the plugs are two-pin - rather like narrow blades not as in the European ones.

So it sounds like someone is telling porkies.

Although, of course, they could have a home in the UK and the USA.

3 pin sockets aren't uncommon in the rest of the world and just like we can buy & install 2 pin american sockets here i'd assume they can do the same there. It could have just been an adaptor in a 2pin socket which can be tricky to tell from a picture.

What's confusing me, given the nature of the site, why is someone from across the pond contacting you? Though i do chat to americans they tend to be forum regulars so you get a sense of who they are & what they're like. So the question is was he planning on a meet

Do you know discussing other users like this on the forum is against rules?

If you think someone is fake then report the profile.
