Why are there so many creeps on the internet?

Coincidentally, the day after this thread started I got woke up by a message on fab swingers that went a bit like this......

Hi I'm new to this site but I have to warn you about (girls username who I met over Christmas) I saw you had a verification from her. She has HIV and passed it onto me. If you've been with her I'd get yourself checked.

I suspect this is the man who's been stalking her, who's shown a lot of jealousy towards me.
I told the girl about it and she wants to get the police involved. But obviously she's emotional about it.
Just by the language of the message I thought it was fake straight away, who says "hey I'm new to this site" as an intro into telling you they have hiv.
Either that or I now have hiv, the girl stressfully denies she has it.

Are you willing to risk it? I hear the home tests have become fairly accurate. Bite the potential bullet and get one taken. 

Not sure what available where you are: https://www.fda.gov/biologicsbloodvaccin...311895.htm

Taking an STD test is no big deal to me.  I 100% don't believe this person's message though.  There's little reasons, for example starting a message off with "Hey, new on here but need to warn you about......."

Why tell me that you're new on here?  It's like a doctor saying "Hey weather's pretty bad out there, anyway I need to tell you that you have cancer"

In addition lots of little mistakes, he's claiming to be new but I could see on his profile he'd given a donation to the site, he said I had a verification from her but I don't, she has a verification from me, he's hidden his profile now he's deleted his profile.

Plus he's claiming she gave him HIV then told him about her having HIV straight after they had sex.  It's a criminal offence in the UK to knowingly infect someone with HIV but he didn't inform the police, she isn't being investigated by the police, instead he's informing me in this casual chatty message where he's also telling me about how he's new to the site.

 I told her about this and she actually wants to get the police involved because she thinks it's her ex boyfriend who already has a suspended prison sentence for stalking his other ex girlfriend.

I told her there might not be much point in that though because of the fact the profile was deleted a few moments after I read the message.

A: Simple. I can't be everywhere at once. I have helpers.

The number might not be that big, but they are very active. They probably are sending the same pics/messages to 100+ girls a day, just trolling or in the deluded hope of getting a reply. It's like on politics boards, radicals of all colors and d*ckheads are much more active, shilling and fierce than those with a brain, so they drown out everyone else and seem to form a majority, even if they are IRL a rather tiny minority.
