Fake profiles?

Hiding in the shadows

I seem over the last few weeks to be getting views for what to me, look like possibly fake profiles.

All new created that day, no pics, no photo/site verified, no text.

OK I know when you create a profile it takes time to get some things like photos approved done, but I had my text written ready before I began.

I used to get the odd one like this, but it's now crazy.

Also location, they're all random, some stating local others miles away, but when look at 'on mobile' distance, they're all within same range.

My block list is getting seriously long!

I am actually starting to get a little paranoid!

Always been loads of fake profiles and they pop up in a daily basis. If your filters are set for messages I wouldn't worry about who has looked at you x

Thanks Cheeky, my filters are set.

My main worry is that this is one person doing this, why would a profile just created, supposedly in Edinburgh have a mobile location close to my home

Who knows but at the end of the day none of us can control who views our profile and also many browse without showing on your views so you only see a fraction anyway. Like you say you have the block list to use if a particular viewer bothers you x

As said set filters...you can block new members for their first 5 days on here from contacting you.

But if your foolish enough to contact them as soon as they join..well

Filters are set, and I'm not contacting any of them.

It's just the sudden surge in views from these profiles & their mobile location that's beginning to bother me

Probably just people currently in the area using the "who is near" to have a perve x

I think the first thing most do when they join is browse who's nearby...if you get a stalker doing it too many times.

Do as your doing and block them...that's what I do

You can change your location based on postcode. So it reads like they are a distance away. The mobile location gives you the truer picture. Summer seems to be a big time for a rise in fake profiles. I wouldn't worry lovely. I get it on mine too

Any profile that appears even remotely suspicious is simply best ignored ... but it not worth allowing their existence spoil your enjoyment of the site
