Tinder Kicked Off George Zimmerman For Having A Fake Profile

Tinder Kicked Off George Zimmerman For Having A Fake Profile

According to the New York Post, George Zimmerman got kicked off Tinder for creating a fake profile. It's at least the third time that Zimmerman, who fatally shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in 2012, has been booted from a dating site, the Post reports.

"At Tinder, we take our users' safety very seriously and our team has removed this profile from our platform," A Tinder spokesperson confirmed to Bustle in a statement. The spokesperson continued, via email,

We utilize a network of industry-leading automated and manual moderation and review tools, systems and processes - and spend millions of dollars annually - to prevent, monitor and remove bad actors who have violated our Community Guidelines and Terms of Use from our app. These tools include, automatic scans of profiles for red-flag language and images, manual reviews of suspicious profiles, activity, and user generated reports, as well as blocking email addresses, phone numbers and other identifiers.

According to screenshots obtained by the website Creative Loafing, Zimmerman created a Tinder account in which he identified himself as "Carter" and posted photos depicting himself in a graduation gown, posing with a dog, and shirtless.

Screengrab via Tinder, obtained by Creative Loafing Tampa Bay
George Zimmerman, a local child killer who was acquitted for the murder of an unarmed Trayvon Martin back in 2012, has now resorted to using a fake alias on the dating app Tinder.

According to screen grabs obtained by Creative Loafing Tampa Bay, Zimmerman is now going by the name "Carter," and describes himself as a self-employed consultant and a Liberty University graduate looking for "carefree fun." His profile also says he enjoys hiking, fishing, the outdoors, takeout from Longhorn Steakhouse and, unsurprisingly, he would prefer to avoid "large crowds."
