Passion.con AKA Adultfriendfinder stealing myspace pics? - GoFuckYourself.com

This guy seems to think so.

Yesterday I was checking a video of amazing acrobat
Dominic Lacasse when I reckonised a girl from my set of Myspace friends. She was in a dating network advertisement which said she was 22 and living in Tasmania, Australia. Only problem with that is shes actually 20 and living in California, USA.

Obviously blatant false advertising? unless she regularly flys out to Tasmania 14 hours for the dates. (See pictures at the bottom and an explanation of how easy it would be to steal and use profiles without people ever knowing.)

I recognised the girl immediately because shes been in my top 8 friends for a couple of months. Anyway I?ve removed her from my friends so you won?t know who she is, (for the sake of her privacy obviously).

I can?t say for sure that the profiles were stolen, maybe they were paid? But I doubt it because it would be easy to steal profile pics from myspace without much chance of getting caught because you can deliver the advertisments with geo-targeting - if the computer user looking at the page is based in Australia show profiles you stole from people in the US - if the computer user looking at the page is based in the US show profiles you stole from the UK and so on and so forth.

The ad was for a site called Passion.com - ?Sexy Personals For Passionate People?. Passion.com is part of a major dating network which includes the infamous adultfriendfinder.com.

I don't know those sites.

Look like a geo targeted script effect to me.

How does he know the girl from Myspace didn't steal the pics? Half the girls I see on Myspace have pics of some solo girl. I'd assume that is a more likely scenario.

No dude what's happening is the site owner/affiliate is using a script to populate those ads with pics he's got on his site.

She can hit him with a C&D if she wants.
