What is Catfishing?

Catfishing involves creating a fake online identity to deceive individuals, often for personal gain or malicious intent. Fraud, extortion, blackmail, and emotional manipulation are common outcomes, leaving victims heartbroken, embarrassed, and financially damaged.


How to Spot a Catfish

Sign #1: Moving Too Fast

Is your new online acquaintance overly affectionate or intense early on? If it feels too good to be true, it likely is.

Sign #2: Refusal to Meet or Video Call

Catfishers often avoid in-person meetings or video calls, citing excuses to maintain their deception. If they decline to Facetime or Zoom, be cautious.

Sign #3: Incomplete Profiles

Fake profiles often lack depth, with minimal social media presence or missing key details. Watch for inconsistencies.

Sign #4: Requests for Financial Assistance

One of the most common red flags is an early plea for money or financial help. If someone asks for funds without meeting you, proceed with extreme caution.
