Started messaging a lady and seemed normal . Sent me a friend request ..so thought superb shes real . Then passed on her kik . Sorted a meet after an exchange of messages for next day (today) . On driving 30mins there the messages i was sending was being read but not replying so got that sinking feeling its a fake profile !!

The usual signs of a name with a number at end of it and quick reply with kik .

Wasnt wasted day though as had a perv at Greenwich Park perving lol

I've had this happen before. Seemed real enough and was photo verified on here. We had spoke for quite a while. She may of been real but just wasting time. Got ready, about to leave the house and messaged for the postcode. No reply. Sent 3 messages asking and got nothing. Changed my plans especially aswell.

Name with a number after it? Do people assume that means a fake profile?

Ours is literally 76 as hubby was born in 76, and 83 as I was born in 83

Was the person verified? How long had they been a member and did you chat on the phone?

How many of these have I seen on here in the last few days.

1) Talk on the phone

2) Ask for live photos or a video chat

3) Trust but verify.

3 rules to live by if you're willing to go for the one line wonders.

They can indeed but it certainly helps.

I've had fakes in terms of the guy not looking like his picture. I.e. It was him in the photo, but not present day...(ate some pies, lost some hair, went grey, shorter etc) so the physical attraction just isn't there.

Doesn't really happen any more, as more careful with my selection.

Oh yes had our fair share of those. Most often last minute "will you meet on your own."

Couple of no shows too. Don't trust verifications all the time. Plenty of fakes ones floating round.

If in doubt speak chat room or phone.

That used to annoy us. Now look on it as step closer to find those who want to play (oh and still look for a regular play mate.)

That should send alarm bells, normally they are fake when they go straight to KIK and new to the site.

never heard of being a fake cos of having numbers at the end - usually because the name you want has gone but if you add numbers you still get the name

Happens far too often!

Perhaps a more robust verification system should be given some thought? Personally I think you get a sixth sense with time, or something like that lol

Just around the corner

I had a very similar one: exchanged messages over a few days with a couple. They'd been in the site for six months and had a number of verifications in person. Got as far as me driving to their street and asking for the house number... silence, and then profile deleted within the hour.

It's quite possible that their profile had been hacked, as this happened to us on another profile. Someone started advertising for meets and put up the postcode and hotel name to where we were staying. A friend on here alerted us and we quickly deleted the profile. We think someone must have hacked partner's phone, saw our texts between ourselves of where and when to meet, my preferences, and got onto our profile that way!!

400 was a Fab suggestion for me.

Is it that easy to hack a phone?

I'm not doubting you just curious.

Well the FBI had to ask Apple to give them access to terrorists phones. I'm sure your average guy on the street would be able to, especially the phone of your average joe.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

It does state clearly on the Fab FAQs to seriously consider a meet where you have to travel a long time. You can avoid these shenanigans by using your head (as The Brain states):

Is the profile new?

Are they verified?

Do they ask you to go to Kik/Whatsapp quickly?

Have you got their address and have you checked it on Google Maps?

Have you spoken to them on the phone?

None of these will guarantee you won't at some point get messed around, but thinking with the big brain instead of the little one will reduce the risk.
