Sorry gents, not strictly punt related but i need a little help with tineye / reverse images. I'm looking at a girls profile on viva street and want to check if she's genuine. Problem is, every search i do on tineye comes back with 0 results, even when i try completely unrelated pictures.
Guess i'm doing something wrong so if there's any experts out there i'd appreciate a few pointers.
Ps. using iPhone only.
You're not necessarily doing anything wrong.
Tineye shows up photographs that have been used elsewhere on the internet, so provide an indication of fake profiles (when they do show positive results).
When Tineye shows 0 results, this may indicate a genuine profile, but is no guarantee - it just means that Tineye hasn't detected the same photograph on the internet.
In general, the advice would be to assume that Tineye results producing more than 1 positive result should be assumed to be fake (though there have been exceptions), and that 0 results indicate that profiles are more likely to be genuine (though again, there are likely to be exceptions).
The BEST advice is to check with UKP.
