Our Time (People Media LLC) Beware of Phoney Profiles Internet

BEWARE!  The Our Time dating site is filled with false profiles of imposters pretending to be your perfect mate and using photographs stolen from modeling or social networking sites.  They are perfect.  In fact, they're someone you could see yourself spending the rest of your life with.  A decent person with a successful job and a house in search of a good, honest partner to settle down with.

In reality, this imposter is a criminal sitting in a cybercafe with a well rehearsed script he's used many times before to target single men and women who are searching for love online.  He's hunting through chat rooms, dating sites and social networking sites searching for victims, looking to cash in on romance.  If you are over 40, recently divorced, a widow, elderly or disabled then all the better in his eyes.  Scammers are adept at psychological profiling, and use any weakness they find to their advantage.

It has become so prevalent that Dr. Phil even did an entire show on what he called "catfishing."
