Could someone please define fake profile for me, seriously. I keep reading about fake profiles and the importance of being seen to be genuine. But genuine what? Surely the profiles are posted by real people so how can they be fake? Does the OP mean the people who post them aren't meeting or interested in chatting or camming? If they're not why on earth would they go to the effort of putting together a profile? Total mystery to me

It's that the profile doesn't represent the person in real life.

They're often created to perv, troll, or even scam other users on the site.

So possibly some of the female profiles are "ladies of the night" you think? Understand the perving, I spose, get some poor bugger to write filth to you and watch fat women on cam jiggle their tittes! Is that not legitimate then? Men posing as women couples posing as men or whatever could be irritating but if you filter out non verifieds,then problem solved! I have a lot to learn it seems

Sometimes men pose as couples. Beats me as to why though.

Sometimes single men set up female or couples profiles. The single female ones are to elicit horny sex talk from other men for their wankbank. And to get access to pictures.

The couples profiles are to try to the same and also to try to arrange meets with men, women or couples that their other half somehow isn't available for but that won't be a problem will it...

Some people include the 'all talk and no action' profiles in with the fakes. The ones who will chat and flirt but never want to arrange a meet. These are often women but can be men or couples. They are often repeat no shows; they arrange a meet and then either block you, go silent or they are rushed to hospital/their cat dies/their car breaks down. All of these could be genuine but could also be a line.

Some of the fakes will nick pics off the internet, sometimes off other profiles or they will use snapshots of a partner or ex.

If you think a profile or pics are fake (Google reverse image search and tineye are your friends) report. If you get a no-show report.

There are some on here who will verify someone they have never met or seen on cam. If you suspect this report both profiles and let admin deal with it.

People have had all their veris stripped because one links them to someone who writes fake veris so don't ever be tempted to accept a dodgy veri.

Some people don't have the confidence to show themselves or use pics that aren't them to get people to talk to them. A sexy muscular body gets more response that an unfit one. As they can't meet they make do with sex talk and pics back. It doesn't only happen here,I've come across it on lots of apps and websites

Some people cant do well here so they make a fake profile and 9 times out of 10 its a single fem with lovely pics . They just get off on the chatting and dreaming never wishing to meet ... I always know when fake as they ask all sorts of sexy things .. that most woman would never ask to start of with . Just need to report the profile when you find them as its not real.

Don't really understand the getting photos bit because there is no shortage of any sort of pic you want on the Internet, gay, straight, etc etc. I can honestly say that I don't think I've had a message from a fake yet. Plenty from wankers of course but no one that made me think they weren't a man. Probably just naive of me

I think the photo collecting is like getting Top Trumps cards. The zillions available on the Net everyone has but not your bottie.

A couple of years ago I was on another site and I posted some quite explicit pics (not open crotch, just tits and bums). When I met some bloke off there he brought up his fave pic of me on his phone to show me, he'd copied them. Made me really think, if he'd done it how many other people out there had copied my pics and were showing them around? Since then I only post a few and they are pretty tame. Was creepy to say the least

I don't understand it either but if I tried to understand everything people do on here I'd be stark staring bonkers within a week. I mark it down as "one of those things".

That probably happens a lot, especially with technology as it is now. I have a lot of pics of guys I know that I've transferred to my phone via Dropbox so I can look at them whenever I want. (in vaulty so if I lose the phone they're hidden)

Maybe the man just appreciated your beauty.

Don't be fooled by the verified either. Some have two or more accounts and can verify each account by themselves

Isn't that impossible?

You can only be verified by a verified person?....

They have to put a bit of work in as they need to get verified in the first place then use different internet connections to do it.

Do it via roaming data on a phone. Easy enough.

Once you have been on here a bit you soon get the vibes and trust your gut instinct... Wont be long before you can tell who "real" and who "fake" ... You can add people on your hot list too and then get the status updates, new pictures people post etc ... ( without adding as friends straight away... People dont know they are on your hot list) Enjoy! Are some great people out here,

yes your right .. people need to look out for that too . Single fem is classic I find for fakes here with a verified profile and that's fake too.
