FabSwingers.com forum: Strangest excuse you have heard for not being verified

By (user no longer on site) OP

So we have only been on here a week. The amount of messages/friend requests we get from unverified users is astounding.

We always ask them to get verified and send them a link and instructions.

Not one of them has done so, they all have an excuse (cue fake profile)

What's the strangest excuse you've heard?

(Amazing how many people have phones with broken cameras)

We even had one single lady offer a single man's profile as verification, where we were to message them and he would confirm she is real...so they obviously had 2 accounts lol

You mean photo verified? I don't really mind if they are or not, I just suss them out by chatting.

Sorry, yes photo verified. Still new to site terminology.

The excuses are they don’t need that green tick to prove they are genuine.

To be quite frank OP, I would be more likely to assume a profile like yours is fake, than one who doesn't wish to be photo verified.

Photo verification doesn't prove they are who they say they are.

We tend to do clubs the people there are definitely real and seeking sex. If we do meet from here we prefer those with several real life verifications.

I understand that the photo verification is a filter for some people. You may be shooting yourself in the foot though and missing out on meeting great people. We only recently got photo verified after almost a year on the site and that was purely because I was curious to see how it worked to categorise photos we put up. If it hadn't been for that we wouldn't have bothered.

We real life meet people in clubs who may or may not be on fabs so being photo verified means nothing at all most of the time.

Thanks Ebony for some constructive advice.

We are looking at clubs but our local club is 21+. We've already met some lovely genuine people on here so it's all good.

Thank you

I couldn't get photo verified for awhile as I had a serious injury and had trouble positioning myself to take an appropriate picture. And my nudes with medical device attached (at that stage on 24/7) were rejected (the device didn't cover my breasts or genitals).

I think it might be necessary for newly registered men.

Other than that, I have no idea what the point is...sorry.

You will also find that some of the club's will quite happily allow an over 21 guy and a 19 female. Spent many happy hours with a lovely couple like that a few years ago at a club. She was a regular.just phone and check.

It can be a stepping stone to getting verified by people, we did notice more interest in the early days once we had done this, its no substitute for meet ones though. In truth neither are foolproof however.

It’s more really to say the women on the profile is a woman and not a man pretending to be a woman.

I prefer verified folks but will meet out the box and mainly at clubs.
