Crazy internet daters sue the big boys!
Wow. Just read today that some very frustrated internet daters have sued two of the big dating sites - Match.com and Yahoo Personals. They are claiming that Match.com sent out fake emails from fake profiles to try and make people stay longer on their membership.
Come to think of it - when I nearly cancelled my match.com free trial once, I was sent this email that seemed too perfect and thought it was fake. Anyone else experienced think they have experienced this?
Yahoo Personals are being sued because of allegations of fake profiles being created to try and make it seem like Yahoo Personals had more members than they actually have. How these people can prove they are fake, I have no idea...
Interesting stuff - can't imagine they will win the cases though!
