I don't know if other Dom(me)s have noticed this, but lately collarme is being swamped with fake profiles. Whoever is behind it, is pretty clever about it, too. They don't spam you right away, they just visit your profile and hope you'll message them. Then they invite you to chat on MSN or yahoo and refer you to their webcamsite. Mostly their profiles are filled in with one attractive picture, a few random hobbies and sometimes a single line like "Newbie here!" or just blank. I had the displeasure of chatting with one (after welcoming a newbie), and no matter what I said, this person would copy and paste some really boring stuff about where to find their camsite. Since that first one, I must have had at least fifteen visits of similar profiles, all new and all the same format. I'm pretty sure that's not a coincidence since I only rarely get visitors normally :)
