Has anyone else been getting emails from POF, that says so and so has listed you as a favorite, then when you click on your list who added you they aren't there?

I also search the name, only to find out NO ONE is on this site by that name ....


WTH????

I think some add you to see when you were last online. Then they delete you. Not sure about the search part, Maybe they blocked you..

Maybe someone is checking up on you. They can set up a profile, add you to favs long enough to see when you were last on line then hide their profile.

If your getting on and doing a user search to look for them then its someone with a hidden profile. I dont really agree they are stalking or checking up on you though. Many here run with hidden profiles. Many fav ya for a variety of reasons, especially when your active in the forums.

But, CB... Even if it is a hidden profile they would show up on the favs list.

I've had it happen a few times. I just assumed they were scammers that were adding multiple people to their favs to attract attention and their accounts got deleted before I ever saw them.

  1. They may have taken you off after adding you


  2. They may have changed their name after adding you, then deleting you


  3. They could have been subsequently deleted from the system


  4. They are hidden

It's happened to me a number of times and I've discovered that if you wait about 10 minutes it usually goes onto the list.
My guess is that it's just the server catching up with itself. All databases have rules that determine the order functions are carried out; if there is an overload in the system somewhere functions lower on the list can be delayed.

In your case - Point # 4

  1. They may have taken you off after adding you


  2. They may have changed their name after adding you, then deleting you


  3. They could have been subsequently deleted from the system


  4. They are hidden
