I set up another Facebook profile to send stuff to myself when I was into Facebook games. I used just a random pic of a girl. One of my guy friends (who used to be my crush, but he friendzoned me) sent my fake profile a friend request and a message saying how beautiful "I" was and that he'd like to talk with me blah blah blah. I was seriously tempted, but ignored it.
If I'm online dating and things move past a few days of chatting, I require a video chat. If they refuse, I bounce.8 -
Will someone keep notes. Im off to bed and I've a feeling this maybe gone in the morning
Thanks1 -
I’ve never done it myself, no idea if I’ve been subjected to it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I met my now-husband online, through here on mfp actually.5 -
I've been catfished many times. One had me going for a few months even. Sometimes I've went through the trouble of making a whole fake account with the idea of talking to an ex but I only got as far as sending a hello message and then deleting bc I figured wtf was I even doing?3

aww that's fantastic! I met my husband thru eharmony and been married for 9 years now that's inspiring, not all online encounters were actually bad.1 -

I don't have the energy or time to create multiple accounts and try to catfish anyone. Maybe I'm just getting too old. I don't know (or honestly don't care) if it's happened to me.2

I've been very lucky and so far everyone I've met online has been who they say they are. I have had a couple that apparently their pics were pretty old because they looked a lot different in person than their pictures.0

I've never been knowingly catfished. But I have catfished people in the past, like my early 20s.0

There was some major drama at a message board I used to frequent, when we found out that a very "popular" member was totally fake. I was mostly amused, but a lot of people felt very betrayed and took it hard.0

I did this once in high school in the late 90s. My bestie and I were fighting and I used a fake account/email to talk to him.0

Catfish?
Nah... those of us here in the Hollywood inner circle don't have time for that.5 -

OMG, I almost forgot the craziest story.
When I was in graduate school, I had a close friend/classmate who suspected that her girlfriend was cheating on her, with me. She created a fake e-mail account and started sending me e-mails, pretending to be her girlfriend, to "break up" with me. Since I did NOT have any kind of relationship with the girlfriend other than general "friend of girlfriend" niceties, it was quite obvious what was going on, and all hell broke loose. Needless to say, our friendship was over, and her relationship with the girlfriend ended shortly thereafter, too. Idiot.1
