The recent fallout from the Ashley Madison hack has revealed a rather shocking twist: it appears that the site had an astonishingly low number of genuine female users. Can you believe it? The men who thought they were shelling out thousands for a secret liaison were actually paying for nothing. So, how did this all unfold?
Out of the staggering 5.5 million “female” accounts, only 12,108 belonged to real women who were actively engaged on Ashley Madison. But let’s be real here – “active” is a stretch. This number reflects women who paid to delete their accounts, which is more about inactivity than involvement. In fact, only 1,492 of these female accounts ever bothered to check their mailbox. And as for the chat feature, which drew in around 11 million men? A mere 2,400 women participated.
According to a writer for TechyTimes, “The overwhelming evidence suggests that the majority of men using Ashley Madison weren’t indulging in affairs; they were buying into a fantasy.” With around 37 million users in the database and just a tiny fraction being real women, it seems like a wild goose chase. Many accounts originated from IP addresses that traced back to Ashley Madison’s own servers.
These findings come from a detailed analysis by a diligent writer named Claire Johnson. One particularly telling graph illustrated how the Ashley Madison team made their numerous female accounts appear lively. They displayed enticing nicknames, photos, and sultry comments to lure men. However, behind the curtain, they didn’t bother hiding the blatant signs of fabrication. Women’s email addresses and IPs were often suspicious, and they didn’t even pretend to fake any user activity.
In the end, the cheaters were the ones getting cheated – how’s that for a cosmic joke? This whole situation feels like an elaborate ruse. But let’s be honest; it’s hard to muster sympathy for the 57 million men who got duped.
