Friend Invites from the US

Jump to newest

We have been getting heaps of friend invites recently from the US. They never write first or indicate that they have ever read our profile.

When we look at theirs it is almost always a one liner with a photograph of a female that looks suspiciously like it has been lifted from Playboy.

None ever is verified & they never respond if we write back....

Is anyone else noticing this?

do you have lots of 'friends only' photos? maybe they're trying to steal them for their own wicked purposes?

Not sure exactly what they expect from us but our response is simply to block them every time.

Just there seems to be many more of them recently.

If I thought even one was genuine I would be surprised but the fact that 100% of them look as phoney as a £3 coin is bizarre.

I was going to put this subject up earlier as well but didnt have time-ours are always couples or single females with no verifications and its only started happening in the last week or so.

Does any admin etc. types know if there is a technical reason for this? Perhaps search functions have changed/filters, things like that?

Couldnt tell you how genuine the profiles were though!

"We're friends with a guy in Wisconsin and a guy in New Zealand but we verified them on cam before we added them as friends. "

Ive invited people i used to(and occasionally do)cam with in worldwide chatrooms

a main reason why I dont cam much is its mostly boring and I wanted to do real meets...however..for the cyber crowd..what harm can it do if they are on mars?

*granted the manners should be the same lol

i'm convinced they only want to see the private pics! We treat them like all friendrequests from strangers who don't message 1st:Delete

Frankly I would prefer to bock anyone from outside the UK being able to view our profile. Realistically we will never be playing with them so at the moment they are being given an opportunity to perv & send idiotic messages.

We are here to meet other swinging partners & for us that is limited to the UK only.

No idea. In the past we have had messages from the US, Middle East, Latvia to name a few.

Maybe Admin can advise?

True but in the ones we have received there seems to be a suggestion from them that we are for sale.

This happened on another site Im a member of. Same kind of girl was viewing, innapproriately a lot of one particular type of profile. In this case it was those of Dominant men, and no one ever got to the bottom of it :/

We live here in the US and have been getting hammered with requests also. Looking at the profiles of them and they have only signed up in the past couple of weeks. We've also noticed that there has been at least 50 to 60 new members to this site( in local updates ) since Christmas.

We love you all from across the pond. Almost everyone has been a lot of fun to chat with. If any of you do make it to the US, we would love to sit down with you over a cup and swap stories.

Has anyone got to the bottom of this yet? Because i dont think it is just coincidence is it?

All of the friend requests/winks/looked at me things that we have gotten have started over the last couple of weeks and all are from the US-not that there would be anything wrong with genuine messages from there, bit pointless, but stilll....

Its just that they all have the same thing in common. They are unverified, no pics, never send a message.

Ive been on the site 3 years on and off and never had this before-so what has changed? What is causing this?

We are just awaiting a penalty from admin after responding in very colourful terms to a vile, provocative & completely unsolicited message from one of our US cousins.

Not only are we totally unrepentent we would love to meet the creep face to face to discuss US/UK relations
