Anyone who wishes to email you, can,
unless you set mail filters.

You can BLOCK Emails and Nudges.
The Search parameters remain until
you change them.

Without knowing what parameters you have set, I believe
they are set by profiles closest to you and expanding
outwards from there.

For instance, some people might have no members around
them so even though they might set <50 miles away as a
preference (in which case no one would show up) I
think they expand from the source to give some results.

That is my best shot, that there are few enough members
around you, that combined with whatever you have in
your Search settings is yielding those results.

ok still makes no sense to me that I'm getting ppl that arnt even in my age group or even closer to me and not all over the world and I can block them until they have sent me a message about hooking up with them.
