Catfish?

Am I being catfished?!

Being chatting to a guy for a couple of weeks now that I've met on hinge, his profile was verified, all of his photos seem legit and he has sent me more which match his profile.
He is funny, very attractive etc etc. So he has hooked me right in, however, he does currently work overseas, something to do with the environment, he's explained to me what he's working on in quite specific detail and it does seem to stack up and he's saying that we can meet when he's back in the UK, he lives here for the majority of the time.
There's just a couple of things that I've noticed about him that seems slightly suspect unless I am reading too much into it, his WhatsApp profile picture is a stock image from the internet of this place he is saying he's currently working in abroad. I've also tried googling him and his name about the work he does as it is quite specific, but I literally cannot find anything about him online at all, I don't know his surname but I have tried to search with the information he has given me and nothing.
He will always message me when he says he will and seems to be telling the truth on stuff. But occasionally he will say oh I have to go now, I'm going to the gym and then I won't hear anything for a day.
I'm not psycho or stalker but I honestly just do not want to waste my time on anyone that might be a catfish as I'd rather just be speaking to guys that are the real deal so just trying to protect myself I guess.

Stop now, it’s a scam. Please don’t go any further. These people are totally dishonest.
