How Do You Identify a Catfish?

Here are some common signs that someone may be catfishing you:

1. Their photos look too good to be true: If the person’s profile picture or other photos seem too perfect, like they’re straight out of a modeling portfolio, there’s a chance they could be stolen from someone else.
2. They are always unavailable to video chat or meet in person: If the person always has an excuse for why they can’t video chat or meet up with you, even after you’ve been talking for a while, it could be a red flag.
3. They ask for personal information or money: If the person starts asking for money or personal information like your home address or social security number, be cautious.
4. Their stories don’t add up: If the person’s stories and details about their life seem inconsistent or change frequently, it could be a sign that they are not telling the truth.
5. They have a limited online presence: If you can’t find much information about the person online or on social media, it could be a sign that they are not who they claim to be.

Why Would You Want to Verify Catfish Photos?

However, for as long as you can and do trust them, they have you on their web and will use every lie, trick, and excuse to keep you right where they want you to be. It is your job to protect yourself from a scammer. You might think that the person you’re talking to online is who they claim to be, but how do you know for sure?

Having a distinct online identity and even catfishing someone (as long as no money or gifts are exchanged or requested) is legal in most cases. This means that a scammer could be pretending to be someone else and not even be breaking the law!

You might be sharing private personal photographs or information with someone older or younger than you thought and not even the gender they claimed to be. Many scammers claim they are United States citizens but live internationally in 3rd world countries such as Nigeria, as part of 419 scams.

The reality is that you should fact-check every person you regularly connect with online. The best way to do this is by image search. This is because scammers can’t use their real photographs, so they have stolen the images they are sending you from the web! Search for the photos they have sent you and can unmask the scammer(s) in your life!
