    Someone is using my photos! This is now the third time I’ve been informed of this in two months. I’ve proved my identity to the individuals who asked me which profile was real. They then report the profile and somehow I receive yet another message today from another user saying someone messaged them last night with my photos?

    So, my idea;

    1. Someone messages you to say “hey is this you? Which is the fake?”.

    2. You know it’s not you that’s a fake. So you provide your social media account/ a verification page to ensure the individual knows it’s the real you.

    3. Once you’re both satisfied Grindr has a catfish function. I click the catfish button and a unique code comes on to the screen (perhaps it picks up the chat/ the verification page). I guess this is the trickiest part.

    4. The user that initially informed me of that catfish then goes back to the catfish and reports it simply with that code.

    5. Grindr does it’s due diligence by matching the code to real individual (me) and removes the dirty fake.

    In my opinion these people are just getting away because there is no safeguard. Or if there is, it isn’t working.

    Thank you
