People Who Have Been Catfished, How Did You Realize You Were Being Lied To?

People who have been catfished often realize they’re being lied to in a variety of ways, and the stories behind it can be both heartbreaking and eye-opening. Here are some common signs people share when they realize they’ve been catfished

:1. Avoiding Video Calls or In-Person MeetingsMany people catfishing others will make excuses to avoid showing their face in real-time, whether it’s through video calls or meeting up in person. They might say their camera is broken or that they’re “too busy” to meet up. A user might start to feel suspicious when this pattern continues.

2. Inconsistencies in StoriesOver time, the catfish’s story might start to have inconsistencies. They might give conflicting details about their job, background, or personal life. Some even change their story multiple times, which makes it hard for the victim to keep up, eventually leading them to question what’s true.

3. Suspicious PhotosA common red flag is when the person sends photos that seem too perfect or, on the flip side, appear to be taken from someone else's social media. Sometimes, the victim might find the same photos used in different places online, raising suspicions that the person isn't who they claim to be.

4. Too Good to Be True Compliments or Over-the-Top AffectionWhen someone showers you with compliments too early or expresses extreme affection very quickly, it can sometimes feel “too perfect” and create a sense of urgency or dependency. This often makes the victim overlook warning signs because they are flattered or feel loved.

5. Requests for Money or HelpA huge red flag in catfishing is when the other person asks for money, gifts, or help with something urgent—like a medical emergency, travel costs, or a “financial setback.” Victims might feel emotionally manipulated into helping someone they believe is real but who actually doesn’t exist.

6. Over-Emotional ConnectionsSome people who are being catfished start to feel a deep emotional bond with the person they are talking to. When they realize something feels off, it can be hard to come to terms with the fact they may have been emotionally manipulated.

7. Stalking or Trying to Find ThemEventually, many people get suspicious and try to search for more information about the person. They might look for social media profiles, reverse-image search their photos, or try to find common connections. Often, this leads to discovering that the person’s identity has been stolen or fabricated.Once they piece it together, they realize they’ve been catfished, which can be an emotional experience.

It’s also a reminder to be cautious and protect your personal information when interacting online.
