Email w/o Profile View

Posted: Jul 7, 2008, 3:28 PM CST
Has anyone else received an email from someone, and they don't even spend the time to look at your profile?

This screams scam to me. What do you guys think?

Do get some from time to time.

I just read them, see if whoever sent them had seen my profile, and if its not the case, just ignore it. Funnily enough, most of the time, the mail disappears after a few hours or days!! wink grin

And you're right GB, most of them would give you that scam feeling!!

People who send cut&paste mailings likely do not view full profiles, so ‘no view’ MAY be a symptom of scam mail that you should be aware of and report. However it IS possible to mail you directly without the view registering on your Who's Viewed List.

Here is how Who's Viewed works:
Views by members register on your list only when they view your full profile page - so if they see you on one of the match or search result pages where the blue profile cards are displayed (like on galleryview pages) it will NOT register that they viewed your profile - because they have seen you along with many other members on that page.

There are several places on the site with links to mail or flower you directly... look at the links on the search pages. So if a person tells you that they have seen your profile and they are not showing up on your Who's Viewed Me List, they may have mailed you directly from one of those pages instead of viewing your full profile and mailed you from there.

It's not necessary to go to a full profile in order to send you a mail or a flower. But it IS necessary to go there in order to read your full profile information. So it MAY mean that person chose to mail you based on your photo, age and location only and did not view your full profile.

If there aren’t any views registered on your Whos Viewed Me List, it doesn’t mean that no one has seen you or that the member who mailed you somehow did it magically without seeing your profile.

Also remember that the members who have their Who's Viewed Me feature turned off, do not register when they view someone else.

If you receive suspicious mail... delete it or report it to Contact Us
