Fraudulent gold member profiles...
My dad used to say... You can't fight city hall.
I understood that to mean there are some dishonest things we have no control of. In this case, it's profiles using photos of known famous people.

At least 4 times this year, profiles were created from someone using the photo of a retired General Major Margaret H. Woodward. All of the profiles said they were from Germany and some had an age listed less than 40. If you do any research on Margaret, you will see she's much older.

Obviously, a case of fraud. I reported them and all the bogus profiles were closed. Yesterday, another profile appeared using the same photo so I reported it as fraud (in the same manner as the others) except the profile wasn't closed. Probably because the person creating the profile is a gold member.

This has happened several times that I know of and while I understand this website is running a business, I feel it also has a responsibility to the members (paid or standard) to take the proper action when these situations occur.
