First friend request was suspect

GaryM_25

I just joined yesterday.

Today, I got a friend request. It was from someone who also joined yesterday and the profile photo of "her" was of an attractive female midriff.

Quite suspect.

It's 2023.

Do you guys not filter out that scammy stuff for your members as a feature?
