A while back I was catfished by someone on pof which had really disastrous effects on my MH. It was some kind of psychological catfish, no money was involved - just a lot of my time and traumatic past was raked up.
I've never really understood what it was all about but there was a LOT of really uncomfortable things about it and why I was targeted.
I saw that the person is still active last night and reported them again, today their profile is still active
They do this - use the same profile and adapt it slightly but use the same photos which are of a fairly unknown minor celeb
Please be incredibly careful anyone who trades messages with any users who have 666 on the end of their username.
It was maybe 2 years ago now and I was far more naive than I am now but they have been active since and actually are very clever at convincing you that you are mad and overreacting, they are dangerous I believe and pof doesn't seem to be able to recognise the same photos and profile over and over
Whilst I was stupid to fall for it - now in hindsight I spot exactly why it's clearly a catfish from the profile and was new to OLD when it happened but there's a believable accent, and they sent videos of themselves which I believed at the time confirmed that it was who I was speaking to. Until you meet in person... please remember that people can be anyone and phone calls, selfies or videos mean nothing.
I don't want to go into more detail but it's a man I believe is VERY dangerous.
