Have you read General David Petraeus profile on Asian Friendfinder?


I posted a blog about "politics (Election date on 11/6/2012)" on Asian Friendfinder, so I was on this dating site often few days BEFORE election date. Few days before 11/6/12, I saw 4 star General David Petraeus was online with his uniform and all his medals on Asian Friendfinder. It drew my attention because his uniform photos, so I read his profile. I remember he wrote his full name (including his middle name) from the beginning and then said he is a 4 star General. As I read along, I saw he put his education "High School" that really turned me off. However, I Google his name and read his military career. General Petraeus profile was on for 3 days only and then he disappeared.

To my surprise, his name is all over the news (TV, newspaper, internet, Apps, .....) everywhere since Nov. 09, 2012. The news burned like wild fire that he resigned because he had an extramarital affair. By now, you know his news. He has a PhD degree graduated from Princeton University and met his wife at Harvard University.

I wonder why he posted his profile on here with fake education or someone else posted his profile using "copy" and "paste" his photos from internet and his career and experience are public information.

I wonder why he chose Asian Friendfinder site to post profile and the timing was few days before the election and announced his resignation from CIA few days after election. He is supposed in East Coast, but he posted profile as in California that why he showed up in my "who is online now" section. (My filter set up for California only and age range limitation.) General Petraeus was born on Nov 07, 1952 according to Wikipedia.

How did he know your user name on Skype to contact you? You saw his face on Skype, right? Did he wear a uniform?

I only subscribed Skype for $20 once to contact my relatives in Taiwan. After I used up $20. I stopped the subscription. So, I haven't been on Skype long enough to attract scammers.

However, I have received lots of emails from scammers online dating sites. They are easy to recognized from their profiles and emails. They are always very anxious to give away their email address or phone # to contact outside.

As that General David Petraeus who is famous. I saw that profile only about 4 - 5 days and disappeared. However, the timing was very strange, few days before the presidential election in Nov 2011 and soon after the election that General quit his CIA because he had an extramarital affair.

I felt the timing is very strange. Because he appeared on Chinese FriendFinder for 3 short days before election and then announced his resignation after the election. It seems to me, that person knew the announcement and created a fake profile posted here for a very short time. I didn't know his profile will soon be deleted.

I should copy his profile and reported it to AFF, but I was busy that day to respond someone who posted comment on my blog "politics - Election date 11/6/2012".

I still don't understand what purpose of that fake profile.

I read Petraeus "fake" profile, so I must have appeared on "who's viewed your profile" on his profile side, but he has NEVER looked my profile. I think "someone" played a prank on him. However, the timing is very strange.
