What do you mean fake? Pretty much everything on mine is bullshit but a shocking amount of people think the verifications are real.

Usually if it's a woman profile who wants sex chat and/ or pics then it's a bloke wanking.

I've found many make profiles.

Best way forward is to video call each other. No verifications and a blank profile are generally fake x

Either not a real person, or a man posing as a woman, or pictures of someone else on your profile.

If you video call ask them to do something specific like touch their nose with their thumb. Some men use recorded videos of women to catfish people.

Also be aware if you video chat, they could be recording you to use with someone else. X

We have no problem with so called fakes and it just seems to be people who get hoodwinked by these so called fake profiles that have problems.

It’s all about YOUR approach to fab not theirs.

Best of luck op.

I think you ontop of checking verifies etc.. you can get a general vibe and sense of a person which may or may not set your spidey senses tingling.. I have never really assumed someone was fake but then again the fake ones proberly did not gain my interest..

Unfornuately there seems to be a lot of fakes here so I've been told, I myself have been accused many times even after jumping through hoops to prove otherwise! Not sure where to draw the line.. but there's only so many hoops I am willing to jump through if there doubt is already there

Well I was still doubted after phone-calls, writing their name on various body parts and pictures, the body part bit is fun so I'll do that if asked..! but I have been asked to take sexual videos and when I don't I must be a single guy.. thats when it gets tiresome!

Does A few messages and then ignoring you count as a fake. The main reason I can’t really be bothered to try and engage anymore. Ruins it for everyone else.

All swinger sites are riddled with fakes. There are clear indicators but some are cleverer then others.

Personally we think it should be mandatory to display your verifications so people can see who you have met and what they say - otherwise even veris can be faked!

Did you meet any of the men who asked for all that proof?

There's loads of couple profiles where it's just a man, so that's fake.

Charlie and I aren't currently meeting, so I guess that makes this profile fake. But he will be back, he always is. So I shall keep profile hidden for future use. X

Profiles are made by people but the specific details of themselves may be subject to a little bit of creativity.

It's a case of buyer beware, not that you'll be paying anything for anybody here.

You develop your own skills in learning to evaluate who is for you and is reliable. As anything other than social meets are banned just now, you need to use cams etc, to validate the physical aspects of what others are claiming.

Reverse image searches are also helpful, to spot anyone who is using someone else's material.

I don't find a major issue but some adjust their age to get around age range blocks that some use.

"Are there many fake profiles on here in your opinion and what form does the fakery take and what are the signs? "

Yes many. Some fake interest in meeting, some couples are single guys. Some post really old and misleading photos, others use fake accounts to verify themselves (usually hidden accounts when you try to view). Some steal others photos, one couple gave a false address then opened a new profile and did the same to some FAB friends. A few couples have had us chatting for months on the understanding we'll meet, but they were just pic collectors... it goes on and on.

The monkey head overlay on a photos is a great way to identify one. I mean who has a monkey head for real.

As we said anything is possible to fake with effort but having veris from multiple people who themselves are verified by multiple ppl shows there is a distinct chance the ppl are genuine.

If only show the summary but not actual veris then that makes fake veris possible.

Also if the veris are old it could indicate various things to make you cautious. Covid has impacted this one for now!

You can also get a vibe about ppl based on who they meet.

The simplest way is to expect a phone number. Amazing how many ppl who want to meet and have sex don’t want to give you a mobile number

I won't give anyone my phone number and wouldn't expect anyone else to either. It can lead to all kinds of issues.

And that is your prerogative and totally respect that. In our case we won’t meet anyone we have not chatted to over the phone. We want to see if a person can hold a conversation as well as looking good.

Everyone approaches their personal vetting differently.
