I received a message this week from someone telling me my pics were being used on an escort site. Now i google image my own pics once a month or so and generally find a profile somewhere, using my pics. Easy to deal with. However when i asked this person if they could send me the link, it was the homepage link and to see pics i would have to pay. TBH it doesnt really bother me as none of my pics are explicit but, has anyone else received this message? I got the feeling it was just a way to get me to reply, or for the "escort site" to get more registrations. Thoughts? |

"Sounds dodgy. If you report the PMs to Admin they will check it out."
I did and asked the same question i'm asking here. The profile has now been blocked from me (which i assumed the admins did) but i didn't get an answer as to whether this is just another ploy to get a reply. Ho hum! Like i said none of my pics are explicit so it's not a big deal. I just wondered if this was a Fab trrick i hadn't come across as yet. Thanks for the reply though! |

Lol! Yeah i know the admins have a lot to do. I moderate a site myself and we can't reply to everyone. Normally i find profiles on other dating sites using my pics, i've even found two profiles on here using them in the past! Some people aren't very bright. |

I've had messages asking if I'm an escort called Miss Masquerade. I'm not but if she's using my pictures to get business her clients will be disappointed when they meet her. |

This is another reason i'm not concerned about pics being stolen. It's not as if they're going to get to meet me. |

If our pictures are out there, we want our cut. That should earn us about $1.50. |

"Yet when you do a google search they store your pictures!!!
Isn't that more concerning??"
No they don't. Google images is a reverse imaging programme. They do not store the image you search for. |

Go to the Google Images website then drag and drop a pic into the search bar. It will show you every page on the internet that pic is on. |

"Thank you x "
No problem! I goggle image every pic a guy sends me before i reply. The amount of fakers online is sky high. It's a good tool to use and cuts down on the BS that comes hand in hand with online meets. |

There's a setting on Fab thats called something like "Disable search engine setting" This means your pics won't show up on google images from this site only. It also means your profile won't show. Have a look for it in your settings and your problems are over! |

Yes but they don't come up on a new search because you've previously searched them! Get what i mean? |

Hi I've been about
I rarely do the Skypey thing anyway. I got hooked on gay porn because of searching for fakes. There are more sites dedicated to big dicks and amateurs now so reverse imaging is a godsend. Although if I have doubts I tend to pass on here |

Google images and Skye are my two fav programmes in the world! I like to talk to a guy on cam first incase he's not got banter. Gotta have the banter! If a guy can't make me smile then i don't want to waste a perfectly good evening figuring that out. Plus there are some guys on here whose images don't come up on google coz they've stolen them from a friend and not the internet so skype has caught out a good few of them for me too.
However i too went through a period of watching gay porn. It must be a an awesome chick thing Banana |

Or the guy who messaged me with no pics, to get a reply. But i'm glad i'm not the only one! Like i said it's not a big deal anyway, none of my pics are explicit and i really don't care who sees them tbh. All my friends know i'm on sites like this and if my family members were to see any of thee pics it would mean they are on these sites too so they could take a running jump if they had comments. Strangely though, the guy who sent me the links, sent me the links. Which is weird coz this site blocks links in messages. I wonder how he got around that? And i wonder why he still has a profile... |

Yours might be down to your gas mask picture being lifted from the "dead-mans-shoes" film trailer site. |
