I decided a long time ago that it wasy useless to try and figure out who is for real and who isn't on the internet - I go by how you act and what you say, not what you call yourself anyway. Why do people do it? On paid dating sites, I'm absolutely certain that 99% of the emails I get are 'fluffers', feigning interest in order to keep me re-registering, and compensated in some way for it, others trying to get you into 1-900 webcam thing - the rest wandered in by mistake. On a free site like this, it's anybodies guess, though I suspect the 1-900 webcam scam is probobly gonna be there - it's always a possibility when the woman looks like a model, it doesn't mean all women who look like models in here are fakes - and if she specifies she's lesbian, it strikes me as even less likely that it's trolling bait - if it si, and you're a man, you deserve it for pestering her. It hasn't happened to me, though I did get one 419 scam attempt. Most of the women posters in here report getting huge volumes of mail, some probobly just give up, found someone or in negotiations with someone, and don't bother to update, some are playing out a fantasy, who knows? There are plenty of genuine people here, why worry about the ghosts, flakes and scammers? Scammers ought to be reported, however.
