"Is it just me or is there an insane amount of catfishes/weirdos on here. Even profiles that are over a year old and have a verification aren’t even real. Am I just really good at picking up all the tossers from here because it feels like it. " it always has and always will be part of the landscape OP. There are thousands of genuine lovely people on here but they are crowded out by many more thousands using the site for fantasy purposes. thats males, females, couples, tv's, all races and creeds. I do find that the most genuine, sincere and truthful are those not claiming to be gods gift. it's true that single guys on here give ourselves a bad name - but males are not alone in being timewasters, false, fakes. All you can do, is have your own ducks in a row and treat others with respect. | |||

"Hard to tell with hidden profiles. " The multiple people’s profiles I’m talking about have all had their profiles open. It’s got nothing to do with having a hidden profile. | |||

"I think it’s definitely an art to read a profile, assess the pics, if any, and tell whether the individual is real or fake but it seems you have the knack op However on the flip side what may seem like a catfish/fake account could be 100% so this insight could put a potentially good meet in the bin so to speak " The latest profile was verified with a verification, nearly a year old, I google imagine reversed some of his pics, exchanged numbers, he sent voice notes. Nope. That’s not enough... he’s not even who he says he is. One before that was verified too and we exchanged numbers, he was fake too.... and he’s messaged me on 3 different numbers since pretending to be different people. | |||

"I dont understand why folk setup fake profiles on here. I can spot most a mile off as there bio or pics don't add up. Clearly people who's live is sad and pathetic they have to hide behind a keyboard " A few reasons. Because the fake photos will get them attention. Because they want a wank. Because they want to scam people. Site admin will remove profiles that are proven fake. | |||

"The key is to keep chatting and not send any more pics...we chatted to one ‘female’ account who we suspect was a male who had joined to post pics of his ex GF...as wouldn’t send recent pics or an instant live pic to prove otherwise. Disappeared as soon as we called him/her out. K " I chat. I even chat on the phone.... there normally men but just not the ones they claim to be lol | |||

"Not all verifications are fake but like any system; there are work arounds and ways to cheat. Being verified is just one of the active checks that you can look at, and whilst there are some fake or catfish profiles, there are ways to wheedle out those that slip through. There are some very real and very good people around here" I agree there are some good people. I just don’t meet many of them by the looks of it. | |||

"I’ve only had fakes with single women profiles. I follow along and we chat/flirt for a while. When I start asking for a number to whatsapp or a face photo they disappear. Hrrrumph. My experience with guys has been very different in a favourable way, thankfully! Most of them great- a couple a bit (or quite) older than their photos showed but as they were social meets, no harm done.

Am I just really good at picking up all the tossers from here because it feels like it. " Said it before and I will keep saying it.. Free membership of the site builds up numbers with lots and lots of fake profiles If the site was paid subscription only it would reduce numbers with a quality more than quantity approach. I would argue some people may think twice before adding yet another profile to the 5 they already have and the time wasters simply would go somewhere else to wind people up..which would make things much more pleasant for the people who actually do want to use it to meet and make friends | |||

" That’s right. A catfish can’t meet as themselves as they have used other peoples pictures. Technically if I was chatting to a catfish and the real person was still a man he could still send me nudes etc of himself as he still has the parts. I actually started speaking to someone that had a couple of lumberjack type pictures from here in his private album.... he was fake. The real bloke lived in Norway and I found his Instagram as it was public. Some men I guess still want to chat to women but have poor self esteem so they use other peoples pictures (same goes for women who do it too!) Others just think it’s a game. | |||

"Half if statuses I see lately are from women or couples moaning about not being able to find a meet or they don't like this or that and won't meet this or that so us single guys just don't bother I don’t have any trouble finding a meet when I want one and everyone is allowed to have high standards although mine clearly aren’t high enough as I’m picking constant fakes and catfishes at the moment. nothing wrong with high standards bit when someone also expects you to jump through hoops but isn't willing to do the same it's a bit of a shitter" I have to agree. It is very unfair when genuine guys make a effort with the profile txt like women ask for yet they bring nothing to the table and leave it blank or a "fill in later" even tho they been on over a year. A blank profile txt isnt giving me anything to go on so how can i know if you are what im looking for? Both parties should make the effort not just guys. | |||

Your message in the forum asking for advice is about the same length, no pictures or anything. It might be worth you starting your own thread, asking for help though as this is a thread on a different subject.
