I don’t want to pick on Okcupid specifically because all dating sites do this. It’s just that Okcupid really made this clear to me because they make use of virtually every load of BS that other sites do. I have to give them credit though because they stay on top of every possible angle of the dating scam. They’re scammers, but good scammers. I have to compliment them on the level of their sickness. Yes, it is sick. Sites like that are like a dude in a white van hanging out by a school or a creepy basketball coach. Obvious scams don’t bother me because they make no real effort to fool anyone, but when you have a whole company dedicated to scamming the sh_t out of people , how is that not royally f_cked up? They’re scamming people in one of the most sick ways. It’s not like they take a few dollars out of their pocket. They steal much more. Taking people’s time and attention for nothing is sick. I really think it’s a legal issue. When people do something like this on this scale, it’s a legal issue.
Some of you probably have no idea what I’m talking about or don’t understand how far they go. It’s more than fake profiles. You’ve got fake in-person dates. You’ve got bizarre and sick marketing that targets key individuals to make their operation seem legit. It’s one thing when a club pays models to hang out there or when a Nigerian asks to borrow 300,000 dollars, but these people are toying with people Truman-Show style. I feel the need to warn people to stay away from those things. Most people don’t really know what’s going on or they don’t see the big deal, but where does something like that end. It’s creepy.
