I'm not new - but I still can't spot fakes right!

Arrgghh! I really dislike the vendors who post as brides. They do it all the time, and make me suspicious, so that when innocent newbies post, sometimes I think they're fake and they're not, and it can lead to insulting innocent newbies. (See BHB Board. Whoops. Mea culpa mea culpa). Has anyone else called a real newbie a fake, wrongly? I feel so bad if I insulted this innocent bride. Is ANYONE good at spotting fakes - and can you form a squad??? I am just no good at it.

Then, we need her to stay on as our captain of the fake spotting squad - even after her honeymoon!!!

Look at the number of times they have posted, as well as what the info in their profile says - thats usually an indication of a

also, if they give out a phone number and say 'Call her!' in the first post - kind of lame and obvious...

you will get better at it - I have!

I hope so!! Maybe the experienced ladies could give lessons, like purposefully posting fakes to see if we catch them . . . JK. We don't need more fakes!!!!

I am right with you, I don't spot them too well either!
