One in five Ottawa residents allegedly subscribed to adulterers' website Ashley Madison, making one of the world's coldest capitals among the hottest for extra-marital hookups — and the most vulnerable to a breach of privacy after hackers targeted the site.

Maybe they'll learn to stop being so pretentious and just use Craigslist like everyone else.

I wonder how many of those are fake accounts. =)

A Toronto woman is suing Ashley Madison, a dating site for married people looking to cheat, claiming that she hurt her wrists after being hired to create 1,000 fake profiles. She’s looking to receive $21 million, and is seeking money earned from the profiles that she made.

The Canadian press reported that Doriana Silva, a Brazilian immigrant who has since returned to South America, was promised $34,000 from Ashley Madison for making the fake profiles, which were intended to entice men to join a new Brazilian version of the site. Her statement says that the profiles were just a way to get heterosexual men to spend money on the new site; basically, she was being paid to rapid-fire catfish.

The site has previously been accused of possessing fake profiles, but this is the first time that there has been any proof that there really aren’t thousands of eager young women looking for attached men. In July, the site reported that its mobile app led to an increase in female members, leaving the male/female split at around 50/50 for those under 35. But with the Doriana Silva case, it’s now possible that a decent percentage of those profiles are fakes, too. On their FAQ page, Ashley Madison informs curious souls that, no, they do not pre-screen members, and that “anyone who is able to commit identity theft can also falsify a dating profile.”
