Fake profile is; if you believe someone is sending out a form letter trying to scam you, which is very common on dating sites with very vulnerable and unsuspecting women...

A hello in an email doesn't mean he is a fake, it means he wants to know if you are interested in him, as he was in you..........

Yeah I know but I am telling you that at the bottom of the picture it is marked as FAKE it says it right at the bottom of the page. I deleted the weird-o He did not have his profile filled out either it just said help under personality. Gimmie the creeps these people

Are you familiar with the scam artist's tactics on these sites, Shell?
Shell, ALL profiles have that fake button at the bottom of their profiles, even yours....

No tell me I have read others talk about it some but not in detail. I just stay away from most of them unless they live near by.
Vixen I know that the button is at the bottom I also know that on this guys profile it was already marked FAKE at the bottom like someone else had already marked it before I received the thing.

I just recently got sucked into a fake profile last week. Nice photo, and simple needs profile. Loved my sense of humor, likes and dislikes were a great match then comes the big bang "Oh by the way that's not my picture it's a friends and I live 1500 miles away and I'm full figured not slender but you should love me anyway cause we have been getting along so well so far..Yup! you guessed it I clicked on that little link that says fake profile.
I was devistated....I really thought this was the one. She keept up the profile and photo till this morning. Don't know whether she deleted it or the DateHookup staff?
Regards,

ok well good to hear from you gunshy, I will tell you that the photo was not a good one as in he was not All That at all. I did go into the searchs and he is not in there so maybe datehookup deleted him, one can only hope. Sorry you had your hopes up and was let down like that. I am still in the learning phase too.

Shell,
If you sent him any email, his profile link would still be accessible from your "sent email file" click on the profile there and you will mostlikely get a message that it has been deleted.

I had a girl claiming to be in the fashion business. Was going to visit Naples Fl. where I used to live. Was going to do a show there. Wanted a place to stayAt the time she was suppossedly in Ireland, but from some town in Indiana. After a week she offered to send me a check to buy some fabric and ship it to her. Of course "she" said to keep the extra for my troubles
Many copy pics off the net and post them on these profiles and it isn't them. Usually have weird spellings, no pics and weird ages! Thye immediatly message you and give an email address so they can scam you off the site they found you on.
I had one tell me she loved my pictures and she falling in love with me more each dayat the time I had no pics and never talked any romance with her. She was allegedly a 29YO black girl in Alabama.
