RE: Surge in Fake OKCupid Accounts (and How to Detect Them)
I just found a profile on the OKC app with a girl who has a single photo on her profile. She's posing for a picture with Cristiano Ronaldo. Right.

I don't use the damned things. There are plenty of reasons to avoid them.

You can take a picture on your phone, hold the power and down volume, then email that picture to yourself. check your email on your computer and do a google image search of the image you just sent to yourself.

RE: Surge in Fake OKCupid Accounts (and How to Detect Them)
Hi guys, this is my first post in this forum!, I'm glad I came across with such an amazing community, well first of all I'm a colombian local who is getting into game and I'm resorting to online game for terrible logistics and bad social circle (Sausage fest), I'm currently texting a girl from OKcupid, and I'm getting this too-good-to-be-truth vibe along with way too many things in common with the girl in question, conversations are quite intellectual, and though I spoke to her, I'm wary to see her yet, she wants to meet me right away, and seems way too much into me, which does not match quite frankly with her SMV as per her pictures, will be reporting how it goes, thanks guys!, I hope I don't end up "escopolaminado" which is how we call it here in Colombia.

Just a sidenote:

TinEye is good, but Google Images is much better at finding duplicate (fake) images.

Simply:

  1. Open https://images.google.com
  2. Click the Camera icon
       
  3. You can then find related images by either pasting the image URL or uploading the file

That's why I don't internet date. Too many trannies pretending to be girls. It's a sick world.

A lot of these fake profiles are fat, ugly, socially retarded or married women.

They put up a hot pick, harvest thirsty dudes and use them as emotional tampons, getting compliments, thirst and conversation all day long.

Getting their emotional and attention needs met with no intention of meeting etc.

Filter hard for these.

Some of the easy giveaways of a fake profile are pictures that are too professional, too glammed up and otherwise too good to be true or porn star type pictures, any attempt to disclose email or phone number in the profile or in response to your message, sexually explicit self description, or suspect username such as naughtykitty.

Yeah. You can guess by looking at a lot of the profiles that they will only have one photo.

A lot of fake profiles are just adult sites/cam girls looking to get your money.

@lonewolf1992 - if you're in colombia and decidedly sticking to online game then I suggest using ColombiaCupid. It's a paid membership but very fruitful. OKC in Colombia is garbage from my experience. Tinder is your next best bet.

I don't see a lot of profiles I think are outright fakes in this area, but I have seen a surge in what I'd call "low effort" profiles. Most of these girls are okay looking, but I wouldn't consider them hot enough to draw enough attention to be camgirls or scammers.

Most of them I assume are just looking for something fun to do to pass the time. It is kind of a pain in the ass screening them out.

I'm also getting a few more visitors from Asia - Thailand, Singapore, Philippines. Some of those girls seem like hustlers, but some of them also seem like legit users. It's a nice piece of intel if it's because that's a demographic I appeal to as I've never tried hitting up Asian girls much, but since I have no plans to travel to Asia anytime soon and I'm definitely not paying for them to come here, I don't see how it's much use to me.

I've also spotted at least three chicks from Boston who I've definitely seen on Facebook with some slutty pics up. I know two of them have boyfriends. I find this rather amusing. Blush
