Commercial 'dating sites' multiply by cloning

There are quite a few commercial 'dating sites' around, which, after free registration, allow:
- seeing the full profile of members
- making your favorite list
- receiving messages...
Revenues are generated from subscribers sending messages. You may purchase a bundle of 'credits' for sending messages. This practice opens the gates for a multitude of fake profiles, sending out massive numbers of messages to all potential 'dating partners'. Their only intention is to generate mail traffic: hence to lure you into wasting your mailing credits. There never is any intention to date a person.
As a lot of members (mostly men) are being lured in such a scam/site, a lot also leave disappointed.
A problem? Not at all: those commercial dating scams just invent another name and a new vehicle for misfortune is generated. These new 'dating sites' merely are fresh entry names with a slightly different look. Yet the profiles pointed to are identical: this actually is a multiplication by cloning. You may find banners for such sites on CS; after all a free site needs revenues from ads. Just stay on board here and steer clear of those scams. comfort

Will have a look at it. I have been taken for a ride a couple of times when I was a lot more active on dating sites. Now I am happy just hanging around here on rainy days. Have no hope of finding anyone here butat least it is fairly entertaining....and it is free. laugh
If you speak or can read Dutch or Afrikaans, you will certainly understand the extended version of this blog in the below article:
I don't believe that I should pay any website (third party) for love or to date a person.

I'll go out in public first.
Makes you wonder where & what will the next idea originate...

They need to be fired...

and Management / Owner, never knows what's happening...

Ignorance is bliss...

One regular blogger here pointed out that if you start your own "dating" site, you don't have any members. So what to do? You can BUY profiles from some established sites!
'Management' not only knows what's happening, they are fostering fake profiles with generating revenues from paid messages being the only goal. Fake profile operators get a percentage on the web traffic they generate. So recruiting fake profile operators is vital and they may bring their fake profiles along.
