Has anybody out there met up with someone and its not the person in the photo?
Has happened to me 3 times now on this site with the same excuse every time "oh i didnt think you'd meet me if i sent you a real pic of me!"
what do they think will happen come meet day? That you'll be blind or you'll just think fuck it, i'll do it anyway!
Ok just want to point out I am not starting this topic for anybodys "expert" advice on how to avoid this happening or what to do in this situation. I'm starting this topic so we can discuss the craziness of the people that do it and the situation. Generally how baffling it is. |

I think most of us has experienced this at some point. I can't give you an insight into the mindset of such people. Doesn't make sense to me and causes embarrassment...to them when you say no!  |

Hmm the cam thing, remember i wasnt asking for advice? But yea that is a solution. There are a few to get round it.
Again as both of our 2 responders so far have said so its such an awkward situation that people put you in when they send you a pic that isnt them.
Do we think it guts, stupidity or nuts when somebody does it? |

I think it shows that they are obviously very unhappy with the way they really look, so I won't be judging.
However, its really blimmin' annoying! |

I don't get it, why would you do that? Surely by admitting that they know you wouldn't want to meet them if they put a real pic of themselves on their profile they already know they don't stand a cat in hells chance of getting anywhere with you? Why subject themselves to the humiliation of you turning around and walking out when you do actually meet?
People like that just ruin it for genuine people... really makes me mad! |

Kinda got to judge though if it effects you directly though. When you go to meet a person then find out its not the one in the pics you kinda have the right to judge dont you? |

To be honest I'd be wondering why they were on a swinging site if they were going to do that, not judging them for the reasons why. Like when a guy doesn't turn up - I'm too busy fuming to think 'well, maybe he had a bad childhood'! |

When it effects you directly ie: time and money spent, your safety and of course your trust you have more than a right to be fumming if its not them in the pic me thinks. |

I've noticed a gender divide with this. Women are more likely to post a 10 year old photo that makes them look good facially. Guys are more likely to lift a cock shot from a porn site but show an honest face pic.
Tis a generalisation but one that made me chuckle. I wish it was all about the cock, would make life much easier |

Seriously!!
I would walk away as I wont tolerate being lied to period. If they are not being honest about the basics then no chance with me.
I would also report and block that profile asap.
I have been recognised in clubs from my profile on here but cant say I get chance to perv others and recognise them hehe |

i find that baffling as everyone we have met looks exactly like their pics...but hey some people enjoy having their time wasted.

Was asking for peoples opinions on the subject not advice. Thats not dictating thats explaining what the topics about. If i'd had wanted advice i would've started the topic asking for advice. No need to go on the attack. |

Not from here, but when tried dating as a single again, blatant age lies and pictures from many years ago.
Have also learnt to check backgrounds, look for air brushing etc
Why they do it, no idea, perhaps living a fantasy. |

I was on another site and someone sent me a pic, then i just happened to look at a video on you tube and saw same picture, it was a male model. Also have seen a few pics on here that look like pics from magazines, cant be sure of course though. Have met a few men who looked younger in their pics they had on their profile, and a few who lied about how tall they were. Funny how people who leave them verifications never mention it, including me. I think they dont care about putting old face pics on here, they probably kid themselves that they still look the same. |

We advertised for a guy to come and god he looked hot, then while my fuck buddy and myself were playing with another couple he just waltzed into the living room ( hadnt even knocked!!) and i got the shock of my life as it certainly wasnt the guy who we had chosen, this guy was about fifteen years older and even the pic he provided was not of him in his younger days. I was gobstruck and while my fuckbuddy had his head between my legs i just simply replied that he was not the person he purtained to be and i asked him to leave. needless to say he got really stroppy and claimed he had driven from swansea ( im in devon) but yet had told us he was local - so one chap unhappy.

It's happened to us a couple of times, can't understand it either! One couple, when they walked into the room, I just stopped and stared in amazement - he was nothing like his pic! He was about 15 years older! Cannot understand why they do it either, very sad! Z |

ive had this a couple of times i cant see the point in lying. isnt it going to be obvious when you meet that the pic isnt you.
i got given a mobile number txt it and some guy phones asking who i was. i apologised and said id been given wrong number by someone. |

I don't understand why people do that. if anything I tend to send rather unflattering pics as I'd rather be a pleasant surprise in the flesh than the other people thinking WTF??? sorry to hear you've had a bad run. |

You mean like guys using photos of ex girlfriends or collected photos from couples or other women to arrange to meet with me or when I was a couple, us?
There is a big difference between red head female, 5'8, size 10, B cup, and heels - as - 5 foot, bald, hairy, 300lb and male.
And then there are the people that have the gall to send me pics of my (now ex) partner claiming to be her ... but that's happened a few times in 12 years!
Even she received pics of herself from fakes!
Ahh well. Welcome to the real world. |

Oh and the 'I thought we'd never meet' is a totally bogus excuse:
1. Why join a site if you never intend to meet
2. Why engage with people who do intend to meet if you don't. That's just playing mind games and hurting people.
3. Why agree to meet if you never thought you'd meet.
Pfft. Some people have few brain cells. Maybe they should stop the drinking and drugs!

Was it a 5' 4'' balding, 40+, pot-bellied asian guy and you were expecting a 6'2'' 30something toned, mixed race guy. |

I have had this happen to me, and I can tell you it was not pleasant.
Turned up to a meet expecting to be greeted by a 38 year old 'curvy' woman with short hair and a tattoo of the Wolves logo on her hip.
But the door was opened by a nubile 19 year old Scandinavian girl wearing nothing but 7" heels and a smile.
She said she was worried that I wouldn't have met her because of the age difference so she made up a fake profile. She had enjoyed my forum posts so much that she had kind of fallen in love with me a bit and wanted to me to take her anal virginity.
Needless to say I told her in no uncertain terms that it was totally unacceptable to be dishonest on a profile and I found her behaviour to be out of order before promptly leaving her on the doorstep.
As soon as I got home I blocked her and also reported her to 'admin' but I don't think they bothered to do anything about it as I saw her commenting in a forum about a month later.
it's this kind of thing which spoils it for all the genuine people on here. |

Usually, if their photos are too good to be true, they've usually come straight from a porn mag or site. Sometimes, I recognise the models, laugh and move on.

I have only ever met one guy who sent a different pic out
It was a asian guy when i met him but he sent me a pic of a white guy
I have no idea why, like im not going to notice
However i have met a few who have sent me pics out, admittingly being them, but they have been so old they may as well have been someone else |

We met a couple whose pics were 15 years out of date! Luckily it was at a health spa and we were with friends. When tackled, they said it was them, just a long time ago..
Our pics are all lifted from the 'Net, so no danger of people saying we look older than our pictures..  |

I'm suspicious at the moment after being contacted by an attractive fem who liked wifey boob's & conveniently has a FB for meeting couples. Funny thing is she always logs off just before he messages and vice versa.
Then again there's the single people pretending to be couples, married people cheating behind their partners back and all other kinds of dishonest people on this site so is it really any surprise? |

A few weeks ago I was sent a message from a single guy and he attached a face pic, quite good looking really.
Although both of us commented that he looked a lot like Brian McFadden, a quick look on google images and we were right!
I reported him, I just hope it wasn't actually Brian McFadden!

I met a man from a dating site and his face pic he looked lively. Slim dark hair nice teeth etc and when I met with him for a coffee he was grey haired bad teeth worse dress sence and jyst got worse by the second.
The best thing about him was his car which was as described. The picture he had if him certainly was him but clearly 10 years or so ago. After the coffee he mailed to ask me to meet him again and I was very honest with why not. Saw him 2 years later on another site with the same picture still! |

Ive never had it but I know people do and i cant for the life of me think why you would put someone elses photo up if your planning a meet. Ok so they have lured you there under false pretences but how embarresing it must be for them to be told no
I just remembered many years ago i met a guy of a chatline, it was a social meet in public as i didnt know what he looked like but the way he described himself he sounded fine. When i met him i was walking up and down the platform for him then this thing appeared like a monster out of the mist. He was so bad i actually went into shock, i managed to walk down the street with him as i was in shock then i suddenly said i cant go through with this and ran to the train station. It took me about 2 days to get over it. Still makes me feel ill now |

We had kind of a similar experience..It was his pictures, but the pictures was taken at list 20 years ago. In the meantime he was not only 20 years older but he adds at least 4 stones to his weight. In such a case we don`t have a problem to say "Thank you for coming, but No Thanks!", no mater what. Therefore we prefer to meet them at clubs. If something it isn't right, always we have other open option there. At least we haven't lost anything and still can enjoy our night out. |

I never cam, msn or talk on the phone because I can't be arsed to talk to one person for any length of time when I've been at work all day. I don't like ping pong messages on here either, so its not the case that people have something to hide.
I can't understand why people will send a pic of someone else, it is obvious they are going to be found out. It happened to me once and I felt really embarrassed by it. I didn't like upsetting the guys feelings and I'm usually a very assertive person but when its having to comment on something personal about someone looks. I chickened out, went out the way while my OH told him |

thankfully this has not happened to me yet. although I've chatted with many fake profiles, men pretending to be females. very annoying.
lol because i haven't been in that situation i wouldnt know what to do if it ever happened. i would probably turn around and run!
on the other hand if i went along to a meet and it wasn't the person in the pics, instead it was Mila Kunis standing there... now that would be a different story. no sorry i mean that is a fantasy lol |

This hasn't happened to me on here (yet) but it has on another site i use. Twice i've met guys who used fake pics and one guy used pics 5 years old and 4 stone ago!  One of my friends on the site suggested using tineye to check suspect pics but i'm not sure if it could be applied to pics on here... |

Has happened a couple of times but only for socials. One had pics seven years old and was already older than we would normally meet. Nice guy but it wasn't going to happen. The other guy was different guy from the pic! We weren't 100 percent sure until getting home. He lied while with us and I just tied him up in knots in the hot seat. We did report but as usual nothing happened.  |

Not quite the same but I had a message from a single fem getting irate saying I was a fake cause I had a photo of two different girls on profile so we could not be real and she would therefore report me to admin for Id theft and being a fake. When I asked why she thought they were different girls she said cause I had different colour hair and was more tanned in some pics. I offered to call HER a prove her wrong although I had no need to but she declined and deleted her profile..... Talk about the pot and the kettle. |
