Fake location is easy enough to obtain with appropriate software, however, it defies the sole purpose of Grindr and there is no justification to use it normally. There are dating websites for such purposes, and although it's not hard to discover such user, it requires some time and effort which is cumbersome. Technically, Grindr's system can easily monitor the rate of location alteration and if it is abnormal (e.g. 5 km/msec), the system can give for example one fair warning and ban the user if this continues.I cannot think of any legitimate mean for using fake locations on an app like this.
