"To bolster the ranks of fake girlfriends, the website is inviting women to send in their profiles, with a 50 percent profit-sharing incentive."
The site (namorofake.com.br) now says their fake gf profiles are all real women. They've also got a selection of types ranging from Ficante (Hook-up), Ex-Namorada (Ex girlfriend), Namorada (Girlfriend) and Namorada Virtual (Virtual Girlfriend). The difference between the latter two is the virtual gf lasts longer and leaves more comments.
Translated from the site/Portuguese...
"Because of the large amount of simultaneous hires our profiles are all occupied at the moment. (Now all of our profiles are from real women and not fake profiles.)"
On their Depoimentos (Testimonies) page, one guy says...
"I had a lot of success. The reaction of my friends was unbelievable, it was (just) three comments that made my Facebook take off hahahaha. I even had some girls from my college adding me, I think it was because of this (site). In a few days I'm going to hire another "ficante" to make me look even more important. Thanks guys..."
- notahacker 14y agoWould anyone believe the testimonials on a site that sells fake messages from fake girlfriends?
- GBond 14y agoThis company's product has a critical mass marketing problem; as more people know about this Brazilian company and the biz model, the more the product is devalued. i.e. Now that I know this, I'm just going to assume that all my FB friends who are in a long distance relationship with a Brazilian girl are in a fake relationship.
- olivier1664 14y agoDoes it limit to Brazilian? If the market is here and if they pay $20 per month per annimated fake profile, the problem is now to find a way to emulate fakes profiles to seems real. It would be like playing to the Sim, but being paid.
