Anyone ever been catfished?

I saw the news about parents finding out that strangers are stealing their kid's pictures, posting them on their own pages & swearing that the kids are theirs. This 1 little girl they showed is supposedly the daughter of over 32 moms on Facebook lol And that's just all they found so far.

A girl on my Facebook page just found out today that someone used her pictures to set up another profile. She was surprised when she saw her own face in the "PEOPLE YOU MAY KNOW" section of her timeline lolol The profile had her picture, but was listed under a different name. As soon as she reached out to the fake profile, the person blocked her. Go figures! How you gonna block ME when I'm writing you about why you're using MY shit?! lol

I couldn't help but to feel sorry for my Facebook friend, but also for the girl/guy who's vindictive or miserable enough to feel the need to steal someone else's pictures.

I don't understand the process of thinking a person is never going to want to see you in person or on webcam.

I don't understand the concept of women using fake profiles to spy on or catch their dudes.

It's all just creepy & unacceptable.

I used the REVERSE IMAGE SEARCH thing on google today like Max & Nev always do on their MTV show "Catfish." I was checking to see if any of the pics I share have been used on any other websites. Luckily, no one has stolen my pics, but my friend who did the reverse image search thing today too found out that 2 people had used her stuff to catfish others smh Someone has been using her pics on Eharmony, & the other on a Lesbian dating site. Eeek!!

Yep. Sorta. Looong before the term became known.

Not in the stolen pic sense, but as in the other person was caught in a multitude of lies eventually. Left me wondering who the hell they really were.



Like this.

Very short-lived, but enough of a bite that I love dxp-ers

at a distance.

🙂

Actually, I got a confession but it still left me wondering

who the hell they really were. :/

One of my friends was...she met a man on a dating site..he had pics up of a handsome man..when she met him, she said he looked like quasimodo .... poor guy .....she just literally ran away (almost screaming)


Online dating....weird! 😱



Lmao @ almost screaming!!!

And then they're always like, "Well I was gonna tell you but didn't know how." WELL JUST F'ing SPIT IT OUT! lol

or "I didn't know if you'd like/love me for who I really am."

WTF!

I LOL'd to this haha.
I just joined a dating site, so I hope this doesn't happen to me.
To avoid someone reacting to me in that way, I posted the most horrid pics of me
I could find. lol Is that wrong to do?
