Gut instinct really, and that can take time to develop.

Set message filters to no noobs strength and engage! Normally filters out the fakes.

Thing is if everybody filters out noobs, how do noobs find meets and therefore stop being noobs? I'm not having a go, just confused.

When you spot your own pic on their profile it's a dead giveaway and when they message you not realising it's just fucking hilarious x

Verifications every time. Check the veris aren't ' circular' i.e a fake with multi fake profiles verifying himself.

I only know there are fakes because people always complain about them. But I've never been aware of communicating with a fake. 'Gut instinct' maybe?

get them to upload a picture of themselves with your username in it

if they're serious about meeting or anything, they've got to be able to do that

I only ever reply to messages if they say that they are genuine. Anyone's message which says that they are fake, I immediately delete

So if I said I'm not doing that (which I wouldn't) I'm classed as fake?. I prefer to use common sense rather than getting people to jump through hoops.

It takes 2 minutes to get photo verified. Assume anyone who has been on longer than a couple of days who isn't photo verified to be dodgy. Guilty until proven innocent haha

Set mail filters to block newbies, those that aren't verified and those without public pics. Straight away you will have an easier, time as anyone who is just creating a profile to get a quick "meet expectation wank" won't bother with one or all of those things.

If a profile has been on for more than a couple of months without a verification by meeting then they are unlikely to be serious abut taking the first step and will probably bottle out. Getting verified by a social or club meet is relatively easy to do if you're serious, even for single males.

How do your mail chats progress? If they steer the conversation quickly along the lines of "what will you wear?/what will we do?" Then they're just getting off on the expectation again and probably won't follow it up.

But the important thing to remember is, even if you employ all these tactics and follow your gut instinct about a dodgy profiles, occasionally one will always get through. Treat it as an occupational hazard and accept it.

I have come across two so far. As is the ballence of gender power on FAB I would always be suspicious of a female who contacts first (from a male perspective). But I am still fairly new and don't really get why people put on fake profiles? Surely they are wasting their time as much as your? Does anyone ever meet theses fakes? Why do they do it?

We're clearly dodgy then! We don't really pay any attention to photo verifications, all that tells you is a person or people of the same gender as the profile are involved with that profile.

No way? Haha. Someone actually did that to you?

Well, I'm in no danger of having my pics stolen.

"Reverse Google image search "

Also tineye.com does image searches on all adult websites and tells what they are on.
