Anyone know a list of online dating scammers/players out there to check?

I've had one person say that I resembled a person on said list, and I've had problems with online dating profiles before - being removed, access being restricted, etc. Which makes me a little suspicious that my photos may be in use by someone else. I think it'd be interesting to check the lists and see if I were actually on any of them.

So are there any resources out there? And has anyone else had related problems of defamation or come across scammers/players online before?
 
Nope. But if you go to Google, click Images, then drag a photo to the search box, it will do a search for that photo, or similar photo's. This could be one way to see if your photo's are being used elsewhere.
I tried this with someone once. Saw her picture, but questioned it. When i did a search, i found the same pic on a dating site with a completely different description of themselves. I think the dating site one that came up in Google was the fake.

Yeah. I've done reverse image lookups before. Found some interesting stuff. It's just that the only photo I want to look up of myself is on Facebook. That was the only photo in my profile that got deleted recently. And I'm currently in China, which blocks Facebook.
 
Do you know anyone available to look for you?

Eh. Not really. But that's not necessarily what this thread's about. I think a lot of people have an interest in this thread's topic because of the views; they just don't have anything to share. Oh, well. Reverse image lookup is a good way to find scammers. I believe I've found them before using that method. A lot of people use the same names, too. Especially scammers. Because 100 accounts with one name are easier to remember than 100 accounts with 100 names. Plus it appears more legitimate (unless the profile information differs on all 100 accounts lol).
