There is no way to input and/or search by my preferences in a mate so it's all up to POF who in turn wants me to check out males twenty years younger and inches shorter.
Scammers abound and there are plenty of men posting pictures that are not their own. For example, one man posted a picture of Albert Einstein, confirmed by Google. Reported to no avail, it's still there. Others post pictures of their cats, dogs, unknown females, sunset, numerous vehicles without a rider, phone numbers in the About section, and more. Some even get away with having multiple profiles.
Reports fall on deaf ears. Men members are allowed all this, while I, a female, posted a photo of an open road and it was taken down. Can't vouch what is done to the other female posts as I can't view them.
Am not paying a penny to this site because I don't think it's worth it. The only good thing is that you can write your About section practically freehand and that you can still get somewhere as a not a paid member.
