As Markus says cloaking is a big mistake:

There are only a few instances that Google allows different content at the same address and that deals with geolocation.

One way Google can identify a site that uses cloaking is through us users. You can report such SPAM results here:

Of course Pof is buying traffic. No, Sonico does not have more traffic than PoF (compete.com). Measure monthly visits, that’s the primary stat, besides unique visitors, which I think is more important but frequency is a close second.

The Argentinean free site Sonico has a lot of traffic, more traffic (by Alexa) than PoF and others.
I think Sonico is buying its traffic.
I suspect PoF is also buying its traffic, at a lower price than it sells it.

I wonder how Google can identify a site that uses cloaking?

Only an idiot would use cloaking. You can virtually guarentee yourself a instant ban from google and last I know it was popular before 2002 and not since than. Same with millions of landing pages.
