I can fake it, it's not that hard to load up a site with fake profiles/posts/ads and I am sure other people do that now but still fail to get traction on their new site. If anything, sites like POF and craigslist had a harder time faking it because there wasn't a lot of free sites out there like that at the time for them to pull the info.
