Is it just me or is this getting worse? New females daily yet maybe one public image that looks like it's been taken from Tumblr. Getting harder and harder to find genuine women on here interested in a meet. |

Same goes for males and couples. Luckily I know ways of proving if someone is fake and they can be reported and blocked.
It worries me when the fake account is verified. Means others are lying or admin aren't really checking stuff |

Can they be blocked from site though? They seem to be appearing daily? Often think it's guys posing as woman and then have another mail account to verify it yet not a face pic to be seen. I'm all for privacy but at least have pics available to send privately! Ruins it for the genuine people. |

The best way to out the fakes is setting your message filters to stop unverified people from contacting you. Any pics they have or send, Google reverse image works a treat!
If it's too good to be true then it's a fake. Trust your gut not your cock  |

we definitely know what you mean we have ones who join and within 1 hour verified by 2 different people makes us wonder and we are just new on here and starting to think there is something funny going on . wish we had your radar lol |

I Literally just moved all our pics to friends only and set all our message filters again because I have seen a lot of pics ending up on other sites and an awful lot of unverified people seem to be visiting our profile then I come across this post. At least I know now I'm not being paranoid lol.
It's pretty easy to spot the fakes. The verifies fakes are a bit harder but if you follow their veris they are usually all in the same group and sometimes spread out across the uk. I just go with my gut instinct it's usually right

"It's a free site and more and more people are accessing the internet therefore more idiots. They are easy to spot ....just don't waste your time if your suspicious ...easy peasy "
I'm sorry, Fabswingers is not a free site, it is a business where they have a free section. Like a lot of sites there is a free section and once you join you see the benefits of being a paid supporter thus enticing you in.
They should be putting in factors to stop most of the fakes which are easily implemented. It would however be great to know how many people have left fab because they are peeved off with the fakers on it.
Yes, every site is different, some implement ideas to stop fakes some don't.

Exactly my point about privacy, anyone I contact (once I determine if genuine) will receive a face picture |

Or then again maybe all your pics are from tumblr, in friends only to make it look like you're real...
There's been 'fake profiles' been on here for months, sometimes a year, they have veris, pics, send face pics, they talk in chat, doesn't mean they are genuine.
Meeting at socials are the one of the few ways of meeting people without wasting time and dissing out the real folk from the fakes. |
