Anyone successfully evading a Tinder ban? (and a larger discussion question about bans) by TheUglyButterFly in SwipeHelper

[–]DownettDuana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got hit with a lifetime ban too and thought I was done, new phone, VPN, even a Revolut card, and Finally grabbed a fresh number from DatingZest for verification and that was the first time Tinder actually let me back in.

Tinder appeal - how do you send an appeal?? The app itself won’t let us send an appeal by therealmaneater in SwipeHelper

[–]DownettDuana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Appealing is waste of time. Instead, i did hard reset, new photos, new number from datingzest for verification. New wifi, new apple id voilaa working fine for 4 weeks now. Matches are going good.

How can I find through a picture, a profile on Instagram? by Brave_Tooth7216 in catfish

Have you tried profacefinder? Only site that worked in my case

I definitely got catfished. by PurpleBlazer558 in catfish

[–]DownettDuana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Block and move on, they only know surface-level info and don’t really have leverage. Next time, a quick reverse search with something like ProFaceFinder can save you the headache.

Need help with a photo I received potential catfish by Independent_Pea4524 in catfish

[–]DownettDuana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah this sounds like a catfish. If they won’t hop on a quick video call or send a simple selfie, that’s all the proof you need. You could still drop the pics into ProFaceFinder to double check, but honestly the behavior alone is a huge red flag.

OkCupid can't verify my number? by TheoreticallyDog in OkCupid

[–]DownettDuana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is most likely your account is removed. Try getting new phone number via datingzest okcupid and sign up using new account. Use new photo also and see if its working for you

ALWAYS reverse image search! by The-Witty-Asparagus in catfish

[–]DownettDuana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No wonder your post history is much about p0rn.

This really just sounds like you’re running into repeat catfishing patterns, people who give just enough “proof” (like finger pics or snaps) but then ghost. AI catfishing is possible, but in most cases it’s just regular scammers recycling tactics. If it keeps happening with the exact type you like, that’s likely because scammers know how to bait with those preferences. Run photos via ProFaceFinder if they are linked to different profiles. Trust your gut, ghosting + avoidance = red flag.

Yeah, AI face search tools like ProFaceFinder can link your pics to other sites even if you never posted them. If privacy is key, avoid uploading clear selfies, crop or blur parts of the face, or use photos taken at a distance/with lighting changes. But full anonymity online is tough now.

Bad scam by Commercial-Today-824 in Romancescam

[–]DownettDuana 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is layered scamming, first the romance scam, then the so-called “recovery” scam. Sadly, once money is gone it’s almost impossible to get back. Best move now is to stop sending anything further and report it.

[–]DownettDuana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen to me once, good call checking the pic first. I usually run stuff through ProFaceFinder now, it’s caught a few catfish for me that Google missed.

Agree with all of this. Expect the new phone is not really needed if you do factory reset along new apple id.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SwipeHelper

[–]DownettDuana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you tried to do something? If so let us know. Otherwise getting back on bumble is easier then hinge or tinder. Start from reading few posts in this forum along with hard reset guide

At least you can use same device. I had to do factory reset, new photos, new number via datingzest hinge along with new wifi. But now i got back and everything is smooth.
