Has your Los Angeles Cupid profile mysteriously shown up on another website that you never posted to? Have you received SPAM advertisements to the email address you chose to display on your profile? If so let us know and report profile and email abuse!

What is profile and email abuse and what can you do about it? Read on.

Occasionally fly-by-night relationship sites and other services, in an effort to gain cheap exposure, will illegally copy profiles from large sites like Los Angeles Cupid and similar sites like us, and add them to their site without yours nor our permission. If you choose publicly display your email address in your profile in the contact info field, the risk that a spammer will come along, add it to their database and email you with advertisements is also a factor.

Affluent Trade Management, Inc., owner of Los Angeles Cupid, takes these things very seriously and has measures in place to help reduce the chance of this happening, however its impossible to prevent it 100% of the time. Rather than spending their money on traditional forms of advertising, profile abusers and spammers spend much of their efforts in finding new ways to abuse the Internet.

Los Angeles Cupid NEVER gives out your profile or information to any third party, partner, or other dating website without you first being notified up-front when you join one of our sites. Please read our privacy policy for more information regarding this.

If you have seen your Los Angeles Cupid profile on another website that you never joined or posted on or have any other related concerns regarding Internet abuse please email us with as much information as you can provide at staff@lacupid.com.
