Hey, guys! Do you know that you can now verify your account on Adam4Adam? Yes, Adam4Adam is the first Gay/Bi/Trans/Queer dating app to offer this feature and we are very proud of it! You can do it in three simple steps, take a look at the instructions outlined below.
1- To have your account Verified, select MY ACCOUNT in the top menu (or at the upper left hand corner of your screen) upon logging in.
2- Your My Account Page will come into view. Click “Get Verified” found right beside your username. A new window will open.Â
3- You will be asked to upload a photo. You may send yours by clicking either “Choose from Computer” to select your photo stored in your laptop or you can opt to choose “Take Photo” to snap a picture of yourself instead.Â
Note: Click “Allow” button when a notification box appears asking you if you want to use your camera.
Please take note of this reminder as well because this is important: Don’t forget to copy the gesture shown in the sample photo that comes with this article. If your uploaded photo shows exactly what the instruction had specified then you will become a verified user and this will increase your chances in finding your perfect match.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy, but why verify your account?
The idea behind this feature is simple and it’s that we want to make sure our beloved users here on A4A are real and authentic. But most importantly, we want to offer you an experience that you deserve, that you get to have conversations that are meaningful, and also, we want you to meet real people for real good times. So hurry, go get verified now, guys, certify that you are real! Now!
Now…
We must prove ourselves as Human Beings?
We have to be verified as Human Beings…because of the intrusion of technology? Technology renders us Facsimiles or Entities of a Extraterrestrial Nature?
Participation on a “Sex Site” regardless of “Orientation” needs to be “Verified” as “Homo Sapiens Sapiens”?
What will be next?
Verification that we ever existed?
Is Nihilism right-around-the-corner?
lol. Wow you are being extreme. But yes, it’s a dating and hookup site/app, so theoretically, people want to chat with “real” people interested to meet, not people using Leonardo Di Caprio’s photo pretending to be who they are not.
Happy New Year, Dave:
You are well aware of my sense-of-humor?
However, what I raised as a retort makes real sense as technology allows us to disguise ourselves as whomever we choose to be? I just find it specious that I should be asked to verify my existence as a human being.
It is fine with me and I have been subjected to a multiplicities of “Ghost” profiles from Africa; Russia; Eastern Europe and elsewhere.
yes that’s why we now offer the verification. Because of spam and scam.
We increased our security for 2020, have new protocole, new subscription procedures, and stronger team to stop them from the start.
No … more like proving member is who they say they are in a photoless or blank profile. The number of catfishers on A4A are disproportionately high—especially those trying to con elderly gents. So I say kudos to A4A for stepping up and adding a valuable safety service for all its members.
thanks 🙂
I got verified and this is a really cool option. But I think the little blue check mark should also be visible on the main grid. Right now you can only see if a profile is verified by actually opening the profile and looking at it. You can tell which profiles are the “pros” on the main grid, and I think you should be able to see which profiles are verified on the grid too.
Hi Frankie, I’m sending this idea to the developers right now! Thanks so much!
Dave
I second that idea! Was just about to post the same thing. Add checkmark to grid to easily identify verified members. There are so many catfishers on A4A I hate logging on. This will certainly help! I’ve already been validated & added “No Validation = No Chat” to my profile.
Frankie:
I was verified as a Human Being when I came out between my mother’s legs!
Her doctor, exclaimed, “What A Beautiful, Baby Boy!” Her doctor already knew the truth as has the rest of Humanity, as well!
Let’s fuck.
Thank you A4A for stepping up and adding validation! I’d go as far as saying: IT SHOULD BE A REQUIREMENT for all new profiles. It seems being gay & elderly attracts MANY catfishers on A4A. But validation gives everyone another tool (no pun intended) to fight catfishing. I can’t tell you how many users I’ve blocked because they think elderly = desperate, stupid or a sucker for yet another sob story. I used my own validation method asking for a particular hand gesture in a face selfie. So A4A implementing validation will certainly thin out the catfishers. Thanks! Please add… Read more »
Thanks, I discuss with my team and we will add it!
Thanks for the quick feedback!

No. You don’t need my face pic to verify my existence. In fact, you don’t need any of my personal data other than what I choose to give you which is the minimum amount required to participate on this “free” site. I say “free” because, in the internet world, if something is free then the users are the product. The data compiled from their devices is sold and profits are also derived from the users’ click throughs to the advertisers. Nothing is free. Besides, my tenure here along with the many conversations and a few hook ups with the local… Read more »
I’ve been trying to get verified all night. The image it shows me is some dude in a white shirt holding up four fingers. So I use me laptop cam to take a photo doing the same exact gesture and everything, but it keeps getting rejected. If you’re going to implement something like this please make sure it actually works right.

Totally agree with the idea that technology is reductive – especially vis-a-vis social media platforms. I was trying to go along w/ the crowd by having Facebook/Insta/Etc. even though my virtual online presence felt hollow and unfulfilling. I did not feel “connected”…. but distracted. So, I closed all social media accounts years ago…and never looked back.
My life is sooooo much better w/o it. Now living in the REAL world!!! 🙂
