Some social networks depend on a large number of mostly meaningless "friends" that make a social circle. Others, like http://www.personio.com/ do a much more thorough job at predicting compatibility.
The problem with most internet regulation is that it just doesn't work, unless we're talking about the Chinese goverment. It's much more productive to let customers decide if they like a service with the help of reviews.
Any decent service does filter for most basic fraud and has some sort of honesty system in place. Better match sites let members describe themselves in the kind of detail that makes fraudsters apparent. A site that is a good example of this is: http://www.personio.com/
Some dating sites don't require this kind of information at all. Instead of asking for inane profiles and financial or other private data, better match sites let members describe themselves in the kind of detail that is actually meaningful. A site that does a pretty good job at this is:
