    I think this was "Yahoo!". I think it's doubtful that it's actually true, getting an employee to spend hours with guy X just to ensure that he stays a member for another month... seems like hard work :P

    My bad... Match.com and Yahoo!

    It doesn't surprise me; I never get messages on dating sites (mind you, I'm typically a free member on them), then all of a sudden I receive loads that just don't seem quite right...hard to explain - but you just know that the person behind the message isn't geniune, which could explain this situation. Oh, and also because it's coming up to the end of a free trial, or something.
