Yes, a lady did a background check by google my name,and came back with an angry reaction, of what she had read.What was written or who wrote there about me,had no idea,as everything wasn't true.I gave her more details about me to check,and came admmitting,she was misled.-This is Internet,go finger.-

well,

met a nice guy a few years back....saying he was single and no kids..

then I ran his piccy throug tin eye and found out he was also on a datingsite for single parents..
turned out he had 3 small children....he showed piccies of him and his son catching a fish

so I ran that piccie through tineye

and on a fishing website, he stated he was married...

I confronted him and he told me he was married, had kids and was just looking for some side fun..

needless to say.......I deleted him.

it pays sometimes to be suspicious....
