Frustrating - Fake Profiles

May 03 2017

I understand that sites like this want to bulk up their membership but there are so many fake profiles that just waste everybody's time. Maybe you should be able to report a fake profile and admin challenges them and eventually deletes the profile or make it mandatory to verify.

    Varification should be mandatry...Im pretty sure the one minute it takes isnt a problem for genuine members and the sites reputation would xertainly increase...which is more valuable than just numbers - Posted from rhpmobile

    There is a Customer Support button (in green) at the bottom of RHP pages. There is also a button in Search, that shows only Verified profiles.

    Interestingly our previous post was removed and we know exactly why. Yes there are quite a high number of dodgy fake profiles on here. Males posing as females, Males posing as couples, and Couples profiles where the female half of the couple has no idea that they have a profile on here ! Who knows, perhaps there are even Females on here posing as males ? It should be made compulsory to have your profile verified by admin. It would add a lot more credibility to the site. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I think that verifying your profile should be mandatory. It would help stop a lot of the dodgy profiles.

    You can report but you will need some creditable evidence to share. Admin need to assume all are real unless proven otherwise. Acting on word of mouth will be unfair unless same profile is reported by many. Roughly 93% of girls and 89% couples didn't opt for verification. This is a big number and we need to respect majority. Forced verification is not a good solution. BTW after some experience it is easy to move past fake profiles. At times it can be amusing to see antics of fakes.

    Where do you find those percentages? I just had a quick look at 6 random profiles. 5 were Verified. Verification doesn't compromise your identity. Yes, it can be a bit tedious but it would help with stopping fake profiles.

    Your sample size is too small. Increase your sample size in search tool to highest without hitting max limit. About 500 samples is good figure. Read how many pages are returned. Add verification filter and read page count again. Thanks

    Why are there so many ppl on here who send messages enter into chats and share pics then say keen to meet but when it comes down to it either disappear or back down and won't commit. Why are they on here? We are genuine and expect the same. Surely if you set up fake profile and pretend ur something ur not- ur going to get caught out when the time comes to meet. What's the point also of having a profile- being up front about what you want or are looking for- then ppl don't read it and still contact you- anyone else having same frustrations- pretty much over this ATM! - Posted from rhpmobile

    The stats I quote is nearly worst case. If your filter includes a particular age group or high activity members it can drop but I guess it will be still +70%. Fakes are less active once the fantasy is over or realisation sinks in that they can't go too far. There are few tricks to weed out fakes. However this is sensitive topic for RHP and my experience is long thread on this topic is likely to be taken off by administrator.

    I dont really care about the percentages. I was just curious where you got yours. I thought there might have been some search tool or something. Anyway back on topic. Fake profiles are frustrating but are going to keep happening no matter what I guess.

    Wish there was a site exclusively for real and committed but it is likely to be more expensive membership.The nature of armchair playmate search site is it attracts window shoppers. These are not necessarily fakes but yes uncommitted. It is not like being on a car sale site where someone puts and advert only when he means business.Finding real people here is just like being a good driver. You not only need to be good at driving but also good and avoiding bad drivers sharing the same road. If an accident happens you suffer no matter who was right. It is really not that difficult to manage once we accept it is up to us and RHP is just providing the road.

    Even if a profile is verified doesn't stop them being time wasters. We understand people are busy but if we get to the stage where we give out our phone number, we expect a call. If you change your mind its only polite to let them know.

    We have had so many fake profiles it is annoying! Generally we can tell pretty quickly People asking for more pics videos and they don't have any normal pics The way they respond is very different too! Have had them supply email addresses which are fake too! It's easy enough to trace where they are Do a reverse image search And Voila you catch them out! Yes I work in investigation lol We now ask for The female half to give them a call which is normally met with deafening silence! It's also amazing how many guys respond that say they are a couple but just send dick pics then you find out the other half doesn't exist or know about it! Takes all types I guess! We have had two know shows to meets as well which is annoying especially if we have travelled and staying somewhere We are genuine and will always meet if we arrange it
