Catfish - a fake profile to lure someone into a meet under a false pretense

No, because I take my time getting to know people and having a reasonable level of sense that they are genuine before suggesting meeting - hasn't failed me yet.

Those that get catfished tend to be those that go straight to arranging a meet within a couple of short messages with profiles that have little detail - not saying that's always the case, or that my method is foolproof, but it's certainly a good guide.

Mercifully the most prominent "someone" doing this appears to have been stopped in her tracks again - hopefully permanently this time (although I'm not holding my breath).

And also use any picture or video you might have done with them to use against you..so never get naked with faces on show with folk you do not know

Sometimes they create a whole other persona to go with the pictures, some will be married and say they aren't,some will be men saying they're women and so on.

If they're being used to show how the person looks now then yes they do - if they're just old pics on a profile with more recent ones also available then not necessarily

With technology how it is, is it still possible to be catfished?

I'm pretty sure I'm getting catfished by a trucker called Charles with a helium addiction.

No but I can see how it would happen. I mentioned the other day the excerpt from the circle that was on gogglebox. A young guy set himself up as a woman on line, another guy fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Cruel and humiliating but I think people are too ready to believe what's on the net if it seems to be what they want at the time.
