Class action against Yahoo Personals and Match.com for fraud
Posted: 11/22/2005 10:26:23 AM | 
The two sites in question, Match and Yahoo! are both in the top three overall personal sites. You would think, why would they be allegedly trying to acquire extra memberships as compared to start-up competitor sites? Ultimately it's all about greed. It's also bad enough getting contacted by women, mostly overseas (or men) who are looking to just scam you one way or another with their pseudo profile/pics.
I've investigated similar concerns with other pay sites including imatchup and loveaccess, and found them to have similar questionable tactics as they attempt to solicit (more) members. Case in point, I put up a 2nd profile, different from the first, and received a wink/and or email to both at the same time as did a friend of mine who also had a profile there. Of course, emails are not readable for non-members, but ultimately, generic emails were sent out proving that these administrators were not too smart in their haste to fraud the public.
Free sites like POF are a better option in truly knowing who is out there, albeit on a much smaller scale, even if they don't acknowledge you messages.
