Personally they make me laugh because they are always very blatant.

A bit of both, but what gets me is that most fakes are single bi females looking for other single bi females, surely they just message each other

I've seen some suspicious ones and I have a good idea now of what signs to look for....which I won't share in public for obvious reasons.

Not pic verified. Especially after a long time.

Meet verified by people who look similarly dodgy.

All their pics look like their from the same time. And that time is a modelling shoot.

They are an 18 year old bi girl looking for girls.

Or my favourite: they are a couple where 'the girl' is looking for another woman to come and please the guy whilst 'she' is 'away'. Lol.

Generally find the Google Search by Image function is pretty good at spotting the fakes.

I don't know how to use that but on a different site i was banned - the site only required one profile pic. i got a message from a mod saying my pic was being used on a professional site therefore i was a fake. I didn't know whether to be flattered the site had decided to use it or shocked. Either was i was angry at being accused of being fake.

Reverse Google Image search + a bit of common sense = not getting stung by fake profiles and just laughing at them

Look up "Google Image Search"

You'll need the picture URL. The image search will find public pics on the internet that match the one you searched for. Or ones as close to it. Handy for those images that look very porno-like.

It isn't perfect software though. Hence the common sense bit.

makes us laugh. some are so clearly fake, like the " couple " who were both 20 who wanted to meet us so bad, no pics yet the " girl " was always working and we live in a small town which is the same town as them.

Asked for pics in the end only for me to recognise the fem, who is not 20 or is she a swinger, in fact she had no idea she was on this site or that her picture had been used.

Reported the profile but its still on here and as a couple, so gave up on reporting it as clearly they aren't bothered about fake couple profiles.

Some are laughably bad, such as when you see porn star pics from 20 years ago. Others are a bit desperate, like when you get a verified member using web pics to either get attention, fabs, meets, your guess is as good as mine

I am indifferent to them as I don't know if they are false/ non genuine or they are using the site as they see fit.

I love tineye. Regularly s out the fakes.

As for the OP question: I mostly find them funny. It's the ones where the person has done their research and has created a believable profile that irk me.

Oh yes, and we know the outcome after her boyfriend got hold of the guy who set up the profile too

It's nice to think what must have happened sometime... one fake 20 year bi-girl actually gets a meet with another fake 20 year old bi-girl. Was probably quite an awkward moment.

I have been taken in by one 'faker' who actually did meet me for a coffee then quickly vanished from further contact. His profile stayed on the site for ages and his location kept changing. Also a local man I was chatting with had one of his pics stolen and I saw it on another profile so I told him. Saw another recently too. I guess borrowing other people's photos is just too easy.
