On Hinge, I’ve seen people put their location as ‘CP’ eg Sutton Coldfield CP. Scam?

I have made half a profile so it isn’t ‘live’ yet BUT I can see some profiles, it seems to cycle thorough about 20 of them, and quite a few have CP at the end. What does this mean? I’ve googled and can’t make any sense out of it so am I right in assuming they are fake profiles made by foreigners who don’t understand that we in the UK don’t use CP after the name of a town?

CP after a place stands for Civil Parish, a
type of administrative unit in England. In this context, "Fishburn CP" would mean Fishburn, part of the civil parish.

Yes, someone already answered this in April 2021 thanks 🤣.
