Has anyone seen an influx of men/women pretending to be someone else? Since I've joined the site, there have been five men whose accounts are banned.

I wanted to add to this by stating that one man's account was banned, however, the band was lifted. I contacted CDFF to advise them of this. The band was reinstated.

I haven't seen this yet, but I haven't been here long. I wouldn't be surprised at all, it's probably a full-time job keeping ahead of the spammers.

My most faithful writers are banned.

Most of them don't last a day.

The site is quick to banned people. They are really on their toes.

Often the banned people get my e-address before they are banned.

Then they prove why they are banned.

Banned people are often scammers that ask for gift cards and sympathy money. They don't have money to buy groceries. They don't have money to buy gas. They don't have money for travel. They need a new cell phone. There is no end to the things they invent to ask for money. Some start to ask for money a couple days after you give them your e-address. Others wait a week or two. It is better to just write on this site than to give out your e-address to scammers. Again, scammers are the ones most likely to write. Our excitement for the day is being written by scammers.

While I have been scammed in the past (years ago), men asking me for money on this site has not been the case. They are quick to want to get off this platform, so they provide their number and email address. I've been amending my profile to accommodate the men who want to take advantage. I believe profiles posing as males or females are becoming craftier. discernment is needed.

Non-paid members are limited to sending one 5 messages a day, so why wouldn't they hurry off this platform?

Also, messages automatically delete after a span of time, so why wouldn't one want to get off this platform for serious conversation?

Nonetheless, better to stay on this platform because once you give out your e-address, you learn people are not sincere.

@walkntalk, I use a gmail address along with a Google number. Perhaps that can be an option for you. It has come in handy. Just so you know, there is a man on this site who did not like me giving him a Google number. He accused me of being fake and cussed at me. There are those who may not like that option, but I don't care.

Yes, another person here approached me with a google number. I have read about google numbers and scammers do make use of them. Not calling you a scammer. I do not believe that scammers typically waste their time on blogging here. What profit is there in that? I do have a gmail account that I give to all the scammers that write me. Then we write. And I see how long it takes for them to ask for money and gift cards and what they will come up with as their urgent need for funds. Groceries, gas, a replacement cell phone, flowers, flight, their mother. I have heard it all. Hardly a person that I give my e-address that does not ask me for money. It is almost 99% of the people here that write me off the site. Life was better before the internet.

I hadn’t received one for a but got one from a man contacting me for his widowed friend(allegedly). He sent me his friend number & email address. Needless to say I didn’t reply & when I next checked my messages he’d been banned…:-)

Wow! Amazing! Every day I am on here, I find people banned who are new to the site and write me for a nanosecond. But I think this site is quick to sniff out bad eggs.
