Hi,

I am only 2 days new to this site and though I have been contacted by what appear to be good men; they are fake men! I am new to this and taking a chance and hoping to meet good, real people.

The fake military men who are widowed and serving our country is despicable, however I understand some people just suck!

I am wondering, how do other folks deal with this. Do you just block them or do you report them or call them out on it?

Would love some feedback!

Thanks
