How do we get rid of Fakes

This site does have Fakes, let us be correct on that. The organisers seem incapable of shifting them so how do we rid the site of these dishonest, second rate & uneducated imbeciles? Otherwise, I will leave the site & will not renew my Gold membership. Hit them in the pocket.

I'm sure your withdrawn tenner will do a lot of damage

the only way to stop them is to report them and let admin deal with it IMO

Use common sense (not very common...i know)

If a profile doesn't seem right. Avoid.

It's a piece of piss.

Never had an issue with fakes or whatever in years using that method.

Beats waiting for the site to hold your hand and do it all for you.

Op, if you know they are fake, why let it bother you?

Just report and block, then you are helping make the site better for all.

I think they're easily spotted. Super hot photos and a lack of verifications is obviously the biggest give away. Use reverse image seafchig for suspect photos, usually they come up on a porn site, then just block their ass

I say put them under ultraviolet rays and if they don't show a genuine watermark or silver strip we either flog them to death, tie them to a chair and throw them in your sea of choice or use them for scientific experiments; your choice!

Joking aside chap. You're going to have to accept this as part of fab life. There's a rough and a smooth for most things in life and fab is no exception.

All you can do is use common sense, learn from experience to sift the wheat from the chaff and do everything you can that is in YOUR control to ensure a better fab experience.

If you're not enjoying it, by all means try something different. But are you really going to let the minority of fakes ruin your fun?

Maybe you should really focus around you and that will serve you better my friend. Good luck

Just to echo a few people on here. Fab has been good to us as we concentrate on what we want.

We don't have no issue with fakes. And from time to time play them at their own game when we're bored and have nothing better to do.

Fake the fake is possibly my second favourite game after spot the swinger.

Just be wary of this rumour.

You do realise Barry Scott isn't a real person and is in fact an actor called Neil Burgess.

And if you go worldwide, then he's not even called Barry Scott!

So another bloody fake! You can imagine how pissed I was praising how great Barry Scott was and he wasn't even a fooking person! Proper catfished!!!!

You won't get rid of them. They will just set up a new profile under another assumed name every time they're kicked off

I don't think there is a fool proof method and as the site is free or very low cost making it attractive to genuine people it also makes it attractive to the game players. It's never nice to discover people aren't who they claim to be though.

How about we have to put some money into an escrow account (safe from nicking) maybe £500 for single guys, £300 for couples and of course free for single ladies

Bound to solve the problem...

Thing I can't understand is this ....?

There are a few people like you who are complaining about fakes on this site.

If there are lots of fakes in here why haven't I had the same experience of fakes as those who are complaining about them??

Am I lucky to not have had problems like you by fakes?

I think not.

Are you unlucky that you are having problems with fakes?

I think not.

What I do think is that the problem lies with you !

This site cannot be held responsible for those who don't use the tools available correctly.

But the biggest biggest tool available to use is your own common sense.

Try and engage your brain into gear when negotiating sites like this and use common sense.

Instead of thinking with your hard on.

I had that only this morning simply because I don't have any veri's. Some of us are genuine and want to have meets and get on with life but then fakes come along and I'm thrown into that category all of a sudden.

Then I think why bother if I'm gonna get this?. Kinda sad really if you ask me

I have no problem at all with 'fake' profiles. There's a person behind every profile. If it makes them happy then leave them be.

I don't think it is possible to get rid of fakes. However, most are pretty easy to spot. I reported a Bobby Dazzler yesterday. They had left the logo of the porn site they had nicked the pics from on

What's wrong with fakes. They are easily spotted and if 20% of the site is fake they pay for the site. So easy to spot. We need their cash.

it's hard to prove a fake really. and even if they have paid it'd make more sense to remove them and make them rejoin and pay again, if they are fake that is.

it's one persons word against another whether someone is fake or not, you have to prove they are fake and often just taking shit to you isn't proof anyone is anything but a liar. they might genuinely be who they say they are.

"This site does have Fakes, let us be correct on that. The organisers seem incapable of shifting them so how do we rid the site of these dishonest, second rate & uneducated imbeciles? Otherwise, I will leave the site & will not renew my Gold membership. Hit them in the pocket."

Your comment about 'second-rate and uneducated imbeciles' is subjective and offensive. As far as I am aware, there is no minimum income-level or minimum education level that is required to be a swinger. Just because YOU think you're 'better than them' doesn't mean they aren't permitted to use Fab.

Block and refuse to engage with anyone who doesn't meet your high standards. But remember, most of us are more open-minded about other people's right to swing.

As to 'fakes' ... the site gives you all the tools you need, and (hopefully) your parents gave you enough common-sense for you to be able to identify them. Report any profiles which conflict with the site rules (asking for money, stolen pictures, etc) and let the admins take a look at them.

Job done, and everyone is happy.
