In the network we are very often faced with the posers. Social networks and chat world, especially free cam chat sites like chatroulette contributed to the emergence of new types of people who are trying to use someone else's identity. Someone does it for fun or pleasure and others to deceive other users. More often posers are harmless and can only irritate other users but sometimes people are really trying to steal someone else's identity, which is very unpleasant.
Few people want to encounter posers chatting where they meet more often. To protect yourself from bad communication you should learn to identify such category of people.

Some may pretend hippies or rockers and etc. It is enough to ask few questions about bands they supposedly love to see through them. Most of posers show their ignorance even when answering simple questions.
