There is a personal ID verification via VeriSign, which I had done on my eHarmony profile because I thought at the time it would make a difference. It's an optional feature, already included in the membership fee. (Unlike Match.com, which doesn't offer this and is chalk full of empty-shell profiles of trawlers, you have to sign up with your first name displayed, not with a username.) Guess what? I don't see anyone else's profile flagged as such except mine! VS takes your name, address & SSN, no Drivers License info, then verifies limited data: You are who you say you are. Your full name is not made public. Your actual birthdate--Age only is publicly viewed. Your location (full address is not disclosed, just City & State) quote:
ORIGINAL: TnCuck4Mistress Your real information would never be open to other members other then have a text or image on your profile saying verified. Anyone that has an issue with that is the type of person I would avoid because they are clearing hiding something or are doing something wrong. The problem is it doesn't verify your marital status, educational background (degree, alma mater), employment, credit history (not that certain info is anybody's damn business unless you're applying for credit somewhere). The site itself lets you upload whatever everyday-type photos you want, so no way to know how old they are, whether these are even photos are of that individual. Kind of like anything anywhere else on line. A separated girlfriend of mine who was on Ashley-Madison for 6 months tells me everybody lies about everything there--well, what can you expect from a website comprised of unabashed cheaters, with a third of the men being horny single guys looking to hook up for a one-night stand with a similarly horny 'clean' married woman? You are still left with having to do your own legwork. You could be married Joe F*ckwit with a fake ID or using a relative or friend's vitae to pass as your own. In fact, he could also be a bigamist with 3 wives & 6 kids strewn all over the world. People who are intrinsically dishonest are going to find any number of ways to perpetuate their dishonesty. That's just life. Btw for OsideGirl: Just to let you know, TC4M & I have posted on some of the same threads before, and from what I've discerned, he's not one of these fake wannabes hiding behind their computer screen that I run across virtually every day on the other (profile) side. IMHO he's the real deal.
