I made an account for plenty of fish about 2 years ago. Part of the process of creating an account on Plenty of fish is you have to upload a picture of yourself so people have something to look at. So I did that. I uploaded a picture and began my try at the free dating site. I was very pleased at all the features and usage you can get from plenty of Fish all for free. Without needing some “gold plus members special help mode points” to do any of the normal every day stuff.

I ran into  a bunch of women who in less than three interactions on the site asked me what my yearly income was. To me that is just messed up and crummy standards. How about talk to me and see if I am interesting first.  So I stopped going to Plenty of Fish. A year later I popped back in and found pretty much the same thing.

Here I am again on vacation looking for stuff to do so I go back to Plenty of Fish to poke around the site.

and now my identity has been stolen.

Here I send a message to a lady on Plenty of Fish, and ask her where she took her picture because the scene is just breath taking. Check out the crazy response I got

 

So I say “Woah Waoh…. What?” and she responds with this

 

Then I upload another picture of myself and say “look I am the guy in that picture, can you please give me the link to the guy that is using my picture so I can get him taken care of?” and she responds with this.

 

Then I tell her ” Hey look I have a myspace profile, and a facebook profile with many more pictures, if you want, we can meet at the police station and I can bring a physical copy of the picture you think I stole and prove that I am me and make you think twice about that guy you call your friend”. and this is the response I get

And then she fricken blocks me. She never gave me the link to the guy that stole picture. I would not doubt she gave him the link to my profile, to prove what ever… and the freak has stolen my latest picture.

She is real. Here is what her profile looked like

 

So I head to the forums for Plenty of Fish and leave a simple post titled “someone is using my picture” and then one line in the post that says ” someone on here is using my image and I need to prove them fake with more pictures of me. any help?”. that post was up for all of about 30 seconds before moderators deleted it. No contact from the site at all, in my email or on my private messages as to how to resolve the issue. I looked all over their site for help, didn’t find any so I had made that post.

I am left to assume that the lady in question is not who she says she is and is just another fake. Probably a guy trying to play a prank on his friend, and well, getting a message from a guy freaked him out.

 

Plenty of fish is messed up.
