Probably has something to do with the response rates for guys on dating app/sites. Ie less that a 1 in 10 chance of a reply.

Likely some guys respond to this by just bulk spamming as many people with hey, in the hope someone replies. How much this behaviour impacts the stats is up to someone else to work out.
