Easy way to find and confirm fakes.
I don't spend (waste) much time on this site anymore. My usual routine in the morning is log in, check friend requests, check messages to see if any of those that put in friend requests actually read my profile and messaged me , then go to My Groups to see if anything interesting was posted.
I click My Groups, then Latest Active to check the most recent posts. If I see posts in several of my groups all posted about the same time, it is a pretty safe bet that it will be from a fake/ spam account.
Most recently this copy and paste one showed up on about a dozen of my groups all at the same time:
New here you all

Here is how to CONFIRM it is a fake/ spam/ scam/ hooker profile.
Click the profile.
Note that they joined recently, usually less than a month ago
Click their friends tab and go to the last page (their first friends)
If TeamTrue 1&2 are their first friends then it is a fake/ spam/ scam/ hooker profile
Here is the latest 10:15PM logged in, checked my groups found 7 groups with a post 8 hours ago. I pulled up the group and same copy and paste post appeared on all of them by:
nudeyrudy_im7073_42423
Phoenix, Arizona US.
She, or he joined 12 days ago and already has 23 friends
Man there are a lot of desperate suckers here, no wonder they keep coming.
But take a guess who her/his very first 2 friends are.
Sure enough Teamtrue 1&2
It read:

I agree that it is a serious problem, but I have two comments to make.
If honest posters reduce their involvement, that is essentially surrendering to the fakes,
Since most of the fake posts are in groups rather that the forum, perhaps it is the group moderators rather than site administrators who are not doing their job.
As a group moderator, I try to remove spam post right away. The problem is that there are a lot of groups with inactive moderators. Not long ago, TN removed a bunch of groups with moderators who had left the site, which was a shame. Some of those groups were quite active. Just prior to that I saved one group I enjoyed by stepping up to moderate it when I noticed it no longer had a moderator. I'd encourage others to do the same.

From what I heard, it is not easy to step up to be a moderator in some groups depending on how they were set up. There are a few "Mirror Groups" set up because the original group had an inactive or missing moderator and was totally over run with spam posts. Members tried to step up and moderate those groups but were unsuccessful.
You say you stepped up to moderate a group. I would be interested as to how to do it. I would be willing to moderate a few of the groups I am in.

I sent a message to TeamTrue2. She responded quickly and plugged me in, but I may have just caught her at a good time.

Glad you do. Unfortunately many moderators don't.
What is interesting to me is how many people just dissapear from this site.
I do not know, but it just makes my jaw drop at how much happens and then people are leaving. This website says it's one of the oldest websites for nudists on social media, since 2008, but there are just so many problems around and now it's down to 300 thousand users, or 300,000 users right now. I wish the site could just get it together on some things at the top level, but I have some reasons to believe that the Team Trues are just very very passive as a group. A lot of what we don't like seems to come from the absolute top of the chain of command of this website.
And I really want to be an optimist for the website, but the realness of this website can be really odd to me, so I just thought I'd just point that out, you know, that this site is just a little strange sometimes.
And yes, I really see a lot of this site just not what it was a few years before I joined, with a lot of the groups seemingly from 2008 to 2016. It really seems like dead internet theory is taking shape over here, and it is just undeniably odd and very strange to witness website decay basically, for a nudist social media website created in 2008. And yeah, of course the bots and spammers will take over if people keep using generative AI to create the bot accounts to basically scam people. I also believe that the groups on here need to take careful consideration of moderation,
It seems like the "Groups" model takes the Reddit approach. It seems like there are just some ways that the reddit approach leads to more moderators in Groups and in the forums adopting self governance without anyone getting the group moderators moderated by admins at the top.
It is hard to make out what is really going on here sometimes, so that's all I have for my soapbox.
And I'd reccommend reporting the scammers to the United States FTC and also to the Indian government if proven in India and Nigeria if proven to be in Nigeria, where the United States maintains extradition treaties with those nations! Maybe people in the governments outside the USA and UK would listen if people report to the correct authorities to search for these scammer groups. It seems like some nations like India and other places really do not always perfectly comply or do the absolute best work to get the scammers inside their country, also including countries like Russia and even the UK and France sometimes. Some mysteries about these scammers just often go unresolved sometimes it seems.
I hand wrote all of this forum post myself, I did not use AI or anything.
Soapbox over.
