The profile is ridiculously fake.

I guess people who mistake SW for a dating site are the most at risk. I’m not looking for a boyfriend/husband, or anything more than conversation. I can be an anonymous confidant, a shoulder to cry on (and a couple of people have had my phone number for that purpose).

@bijouxbroussard Jeez ..... I'd forgotten about that !

@bijouxbroussard and just to remove any ambiguity, EP didn't shut down because of that, as is so often erroneously spread here on SW:

(By that SW rumor mill logic, Craiglist would've shut down many years ago, and the official excuses EP made in that archived statement above haven't stopped SW or any other smaller social site from complying with new regulations.)

@ThirstenHowl I’m aware that that one incident didn’t prompt EP’s closure, but I remember when it happened. EP wasn’t a dating site either, but anywhere people connect, things happen. I was just speculating whether or not it could’ve been a factor in SW also not being set up specifically as a dating site.

Fakes? What here? 😦 Who'd a thunk it?
Seriously though, I've come across a couple that I suspected, did some digging and yes, it does happen that people use fake photos. I think the admins go on the volume of reports rather than the demonstrable dishonesty of a profile. Then, they might stick a warning on the profile...

You were trying to have a casual chat with what I assume looked like a model or showing off their body. I’m sure you’re of no innocence in this. Phrase “We told you so” comes to mind.

@Gingerbreadspice given they messaged first, your comment is invalid 😂
Gingerbreadspice · F
@whoami1993 And you didn’t think that was weird?
whoami1993 · 31-35, M
@Gingerbreadspice people talk to me all the time so… no. What is weird is how you’re behaving though 😂

Oh I assumed this new user with a generic female name putting her cleavage on display was real.
AngelUnforgiven · 51-55, F
Really? I thought that everyone looked like pornstars and super models. I never would have thought that the pics were fake
Lilymoon · F
Shocker. 🤦🏻♀
Wallflow3r · 31-35, F
FYI More than half of the female profiles are fake on here, it’s especially obvious if there profile picture is a revealing body pic.
It is entirely possible that there is a real female behind that account. The only way to know would be to video conference and ask them to do something in realtime. Most likely they would never video conference and after you try a few times they would block or ghost you.
