Match.com has fake people email you to lure you into a subscription. You have to join to even read the email. Deception at its finest.

It happened to me. I was just starting to browse to see if I wanted to join. I got an email from someone and foolishly enough joined to read the email. It read: "well aren't you just all sort of easy on the eyes. match should pay people like us to be on here. " No specifics, just a vague universal email.

I stupidly joined and emailed back. No response. Fake person. It's so obvious to me now. Following is the profile of "Jessfabulous". Keep in mind that to "Wink" at someone is free, but you have to join to email someone.

"Winking is so lame, so here are 5 little reasons why you should email me, right now! In no particular order:
1. Well, you would be stupid not to. The best Match has to offer is sitting right here waiting to hear from you. (Did I mention cute, outgoing, witty, and wholesome?) Let's not forget vibrant, gracious, ok ok and a bit confident.
2. I am not a blonde so I will be able to cook more than a bowl of corn flakes. We can spend more money on plasma tvs because I do not need to spend all that money bleaching my hair. Never stand between your guy and his electronics.
3. I actually eat and enjoy meat. Not one of those crazy vegetarians or insane vegans. I have noticed though, those vegans sure do sport the finest leather shoes Prada has to offer. I do not get that. A good filet is right up there with chocolate, the sun and sex in my book.
4. NEVER once in this profile did I use the phrases, "my friends would say I am..." or "I am just as comfortable in jeans and a ponytail as I am in a black dress" or "I love to travel." Come on guys, Jessica deserves extra points for originality.
5. You are sick of dating and like to use the term "girlfriend." Maybe it is just the over achiever in me but I always think two, three, 50 dates, etc. is better than one. Those of you who feel the need for endless emails might want to keep clicking. I am all about the REAL life and the pleasure my computer screen can provide is limited.
There is my list. Although I am doing a "fabulous" job convincing myself that 30 is the new 20, @ the age of 30 I have a pretty good idea of what and who I am seeking. If you have 5 kids by 3 different women, I am probably not the one for you. If you own a Harley that is bigger than my house, count me out. Motorcycles sort of frighten me. Never say never I guess but I can not see these butt cheeks touching one anytime soon. If your idea of a glass of wine is white zinfandel, I might as well hall you to Napa before we even get started. I am a total sucker for a guy's legs and there is NOTHING better than a guy in flip flops. I like a guy with hair (80% of my female friends find bald men hot), less competetion amongst us when we are out I guess but Jessica LOVES hair. Ummmm, please leave the ponytails and earrings to me.
If I have intrigued you in the least bit, by all means email your heart out, but in case I forgot to mention it, winking is so lame!"
