why in the world would someone image search your picture

I posted a picture and got a random reply from someone I didn't know saying my name. Clearly he did a image search. I deleted the post, but who the hell does that. I have to say that's scary

Maybe they thought you were fake. When people post photos of an attractive person and then claim it's them, others often search it because they think the person is lying.
@BlueMetalChick: :) possible

@DidIHurtYourFeelings: Calling people by the name of the person in the picture isn't the first instinct when you're checking the authenticity, though. It's also not a great way to warn people that they're exposed online; you can do that privately. So frankly, doing it that way would just fall into the creepy as hell category.
But yes, if we're talking of the same picture, wasn't it the one asking what was wrong about you/your looks accompanying a picture of very pretty lady. The natural instinct in such a case is to check that the picture isn't from any blog/adult site, because 95% it is and you're wasting your time responding.
You also need to figure there's about 5000 creepy stalkers on a site like this, who are just waiting for someone to unmask them enough that they can feel like they know something about you nobody else does, and try to take advantage of that. Which is why it's ridiculous the 2nd question (After age/sex/location) in private chat is always "Send a pic".
@Faust76: I see what your saying, but you saw my picture I don't look like I would be from a adult site. I don't know I just know I won't be posting any of my pictures on here now. I guess it just freaked me out because I have never had anyone do that to me.

That's why I never have and never will put a picture of myself online.
Yeah lesson learned!! I have a real life stalker who has made my life hell for over 10 years so now this just kind of freaked me out

How does searching a picture of a guy reveal the name of a woman?
I posted a picture of myself, the guy took the picture and image searched it

People do it to search out fakes
That's odd to me. I would never take the time to look up someone's picture especially if it's a person I never even spoke to
