Employee hurt typing up fake profiles
of non-existent women, lawsuit alleges
By Paola Loriggio
TORONTO — A dating website for married people who want to cheat on their spouses is being sued by a former employee who says she damaged her wrists typing up hundreds of fake profiles of sexy women.
Doriana Silva is seeking $20 million from for what she calls the company's "unjust enrichment" at her expense, plus another $1 million in punitive and general damages.
In her statement of claim, Silva — a Brazilian immigrant living in Toronto — says she was hired to help launch a Portuguese-language version of the site and promised a starting salary of $34,000 plus benefits.
She was soon asked to create 1,000 "fake female profiles" meant to lure men to the new Brazilian Ashley Madison site — and given only three weeks to complete the work, the document alleges.
"The purpose of these profiles is to entice paying heterosexual male members to join and spend money on the website," it reads.
"They do not belong to any genuine members of Ashley Madison — or any real human beings at all."
