Who can spot a fake profile on here?. Few "women" in my area have been on for months and no photo verification proving otherwise. They could be anyone right! |

maybe the same in other postcodes but WA always has the same four men constantly rehashing pics and c&p profiles.
I dont understand why admin dont just allow those verified by them to continue.

Some look very convincing with photos and a couple of veris etc but as soon as you chat it becomes obvious they are faking. It's always the female of a couple, or a single female and within the first few messages I'm 99.99% sure that I'm talking to a man of at least probably 40+ years age. Essentially textsex without the honesty. Maybe I'm wrong about these people but I tend to trust my feelings.
Last year I was chatting with two older guys and then at some point noticed that they both had the same cock photo. When I mentioned this the response was first petulant and then downright weird.
Others seem like nice company until I decline to meet for whatever reason, some people have caught me by surprise with how unpleasant they quickly become.

Multiple email addresses? |

I think we have become quite good at spotting fakes now and agree with an earlier post that there could be as many as 20/25% fakes on here. Should be a charge to be on here at all and that list would decrease |

There are other sites that charge the males only.. so they just sign up as a female to get round this.
We are always gonna have fakes on here no matter what the sore does... it's an unfortunate fact that we all have to try and work around to find the genuine people |

"I think if you've been on your more then 12 months and got no verification your profile should be deleted."
6 months more like.
It's not hard to get to a club, they are scattered all over the UK so no excuse to not attend, and it's the best way to get yourself known, be social and get the very much sought after 1st veri too.

"I think if you've been on your more then 12 months and got no verification your profile should be deleted."
Then they set up a new profile the next day. At least if it's there with no verifications you know to avoid it. |

Quite a good valid point |

"I think if you've been on your more then 12 months and got no verification your profile should be deleted."
And if you aren't meeting and using the for and cam rooms? Should your profile still be deleted? |

Like I said won't eliminate but would be a further deterrent |

This is already the case. One email address = one profile.
But as already stated - the Site Admin do eliminate those proven as fakes - it is up to the users here to report the profiles - and to use the myriad of tools/methods to avoid having them waste your time.

"Unsure if I’ve attracted a fake account so I’m just playing along with them at the mo.
Why would you, it only encourages them."
Because I’m unsure if I’m honest, maybe if I’m in doubt I should just block |

You do have to verify email when you join now and one per email at a time. Doesn't stop people having multiple accounts. For example I have 4 personal email account so I could potentially have 4 separate accounts. |

"Can tell by the pics most women have genuine pics up the others have modelling pics up "
I've chatted with some very convincing looking profiles, natural pics etc, but obviously fake once we get talking.
I think a good guideline is, if something seems too good to be true then it probably is. That and, don't get drawn into a situation where it really matters if they are a fake. |

"I reported two profiles that had the same photo. Don't know if that's against the rules but the people in question were still here months later."
Similar experience too. Also have reported no shows and nothing done about them.
Looking at the most fabbed photos of 2017 and a fair number are from profiles that aren't verified. |

Unfortunately I believe fake couple profiles are making it harder for genuine couples that are looking to meet other couples and woman extremely difficult to achieve on this site, even more so for newbies.
Yes I know we can go to the club's, social meets, etc. We aren't fond of clubs.
Getting social meet with woman is just as hard and well couple normally turn out to be just the man looking because wife is ill/holiday/bad week/being anally probed by aliens, etc. |

"Always go with your instinct.if it seems fake,often it will be.
Miss"
Exactly this, use your gut instinct. Also, block all non verified people in your filters. There is no need for people to get verified either by photo or meet if they don't want to. Some people don't come on here to meet, there is no requirement to meet. Fab gives you all the tools you need to avoid them, you have to use your common sense to do the rest. |

Cam before a meet and ask to see both couples. If they refuse then take that as a fake couple. I don't do instant meets so talk for a while and can usually suss out the idiots!
If someone's pictures look amazing I also google reverse image and found fakes via that.
One guy was a professional footballer lol |
