The Boom In Websites Offering Illicit Encounters

Posted on April 7, 2009

Infidelity picture DAILYMAIL.CO.UK — Apr 6 — David Rees is founder and director of marriedandlooking.co.uk, one such site aimed at facilitating affairs among married people. 'In the past 6 months, we've seen a 25% increase in members versus the previous 6 months, and it's certainly being driven by the recession,' says Rees. Howard James is marketing director of one of the newest sex-driven matchmaking websites, forgetdinner.co.uk, aimed at those who want to bypass dating and get straight to the bedroom. 'Although we are aimed at singles, there are almost certainly married people using Forget Dinner to facilitate affairs right now,' he says. Andy Felton is cashing in on infidelity. He developed Your-Spy.co.uk, a computer software programme that monitors your spouse's email and internet activity once downloaded discreetly onto their computer or laptop. 'Research we've conducted with almost 600 office workers across the UK reveals that, with concerns over money and job security, people are more likely to engage in illicit affairs right now than ever before,' says Felton.
