I have a serious problem. Someone created a nick that looks identical to mine. I believe they did this by using the capital "i" to look like the small "L". For example, I think the impostor nick is "Soiier" but with capitol "i"; in the chat rooms it will look identical to my nick "Soller". Try it in a chat window and you will see how identical it is.
I contacted customer support and I'm waiting for a response, in the meantime however this person can ruin my reputation. I believe this person is doing it on purpose. I believe I made this member mad by warning a model of their nasty tricks. This person will ask the model to do several things with their armpit hair and promises to take them private if they do so; but they never do. I've caught the impostor using my nick and asking to see arm pit hair. That is why I think it is them. In the meantime, I don't know what to do. It's nearly impossible to explain to some models, "hey that person with the identical nick is not me". Argh, this is frustrating.
Sincerely,
the real Soller.

There would likely be a discrepancy in the number of posts of Soller and SoIIer (in the chat room, it really is close to identical, and here as well, as you can see)
So anyone with an l (el) in their nickname is a sitting duck! That can't be good Although, when the model responds, the fake nick is clearly evident.... Quote

Soller, I found I was able to log on as SOILER, SOLIER or SOIIER, all of which end up looking the same as Soller
I don't think Customer Service will be able to help you, because the variants are, after all, different names from Soller
The only thing I can think of is to reserve those variants as screen names yourself, but even then an imposter would still be able to log on as S0LLER, or variants, using a zero in the name Quote

He tries to trick models and he is ruining my reputation. My model friends, one way to tell they are fake is you won't be able to whisper to them.
I have reported this to customer service again.(sigh) Quote

Do performers see your avatar? (Perhaps some helpful performer will answer). That seems to be a good way for them to recognise the real Soller
And if the variants start to use your avatar (which VS need to approve) that seems like a good reason to have them thrown off the site Quote
Silva told me about this impostor over a month ago. i wasn't sure at that time what he was talking about until 2 recent incidents when models told me there was 2 "sollers' in their room and one was asking for favors. I think the impostor is the guy you see in rooms that offer 5k credits if model lies still for 5 min. Quote

I am hoping that some helpful performer will respond to my question at post #11: If members use an avatar is it easy for performers to recognise them in their chat rooms? Will they be less likely to be fooled by imposters? Quote

Maybe my version of f4f is not updated, but i never saw a possibility to see members avatar. I can check a bio without avatar. But we can write a small notes about members, so i never think anything bad about Soller.
