"I wonder what the numbers are? Either men (Stright and Gay) pretending to be a couple or woman. The amount of couple profiles who have one verification posted the same time as the account has been active but no new ones since. Single folk who are not single etc. Any thoughts?" At a guess about 50%. | |||

"Personally we would fully support a more vigorous validation process, as with some other site's. However that would require greater cost, as with other site's With us currently 'physical' absence we accept Fab for what it is, as and when we return this site won't be our focus. " like 2fa or providing id? | |||

"there are too many fakes on here now days. u have to even watch out for the verified ones. I’ve come across loads of fakes using amateur pics from other places. " True, we have reported 4 now, all removed. People are unaware you can search Google with a picture, it will then tell you where that picture came from if fake, a picture from a fab account shouldn't be coming up on random sites around the web. A genuine picture should have no results on Google. You can report the user using the link from the google search result | |||

"Offer them phone chat. Sorts the genuine from the fakes very quickly " I'm not sure it sorts the fakes as much as people often say. Neither Alice or I would do a phone chat before meeting in person. And I know that quite a few others feel the same. | |||

"We would say 60 to 70% are either fakes or dreamers. It is a nightmare trying to find GENUINE single males for a meet." All the above and more. | |||

Quite a large portion, plus all these online money makers (OF) who sell their services rather than meet. | |||

" Offer them phone chat. Sorts the genuine from the fakes very quickly " I have never had a chat (and won't, as i won't disclose my phone number until i have met someone) and yet i am not fake and have the verif to prove it. It can help but not guaranteed. as some one else mentioned i am more annoyed by dreamers and wanker that talk abotu a meet but will never ever show up. Getting very easy to spot those as well. | |||

"I'm real, i still get accused of being fake. So frustrating Is it what you write,the vibe you send out!!" I talk very plainly to people when i initially meet them. If i was a man and a woman instantly talk full on sexy chat, i would be more concerned about them being a fake. This business about what you put out is what you receive is rather narcissistic reaction to it must be the woman's fault if things don't go right... | |||

Single folk who are not single etc. Any thoughts?" are singles folk who are not single fake if there meeting as a single person. for example some couples on here have singles profiles for when they meet separately. in addition for married men/women if there meeting singularly then its not a fake profile to advertise as a single if they genuinely meet that way? | |||

"We keep having the same guy try to get a friend request he's Been a couple 3 times then a single female never verified lies about getting it done. We know its home by the way he talks. Even pretend he was friends with one of our verifications. " weve had an ex try setting us up on here before as multiple sexes and formats | |||

" I always offer my phone number, so the other person can call me number withheld. If I sound like a nutter, they just hang up, and move on. What do they have to lose? The fact it outs them as a fake? | |||

I’ve never asked for their number upfront, even though many people use a second phone for swinging, or a pay as you go sim. What works for one, doesn’t necessarily work for another, but as a ‘next step’ to a meet, hearing someone’s voice definitely proves they’re genuine, and it’s a great ice-breaker before that nervous, first-time meet face to face. It’s worked well for me anyway | |||

"Maybe just paid subscription only then as there is no quick fix as the free option has definitely helped create this issue. I just only really converse with recently multi verified accounts. " Absolutely this! It would clear out a ton of fakes, scammers, multiple profile runners etc, overnight. I’ve said this for years! | |||

It’s worked well for me anyway " I don't share numbers with anyone I haven't met. There are probably 3 people currently on the site who have my number and only one of those that I'm in regular contact with. I've yet to speak to a woman here who is comfortable with a video chat which is fine because neither am I and as such have never done it. As you say it might work for you but I've been here 7 years and never had a no show or engaged with a fake profile so I'll continue to not share numbers or pics. | |||

I'm definitely genuine, i want hot kinky sex but there's very few men on i feel comfortable meeting. Some people think i got a fake ACC without really looking at my profile. If you did, it's unlikely to be a fake | |||
