Here’s a funny story about how a Tinder Catfish tried to scam me into ordering them a pizza.

My social life started to decline when I got busy so I decided to try out Tinder, an app to meet people close to you. I learned quickly that this app wasn’t built to make friends…it was built to meet people based on physical attraction.

That’s when I came across this girl. Look at that body and read her bio:

Here was my thought process, “She’s 22, lives in GA, loves pizza…AND…wait…what?…that sounds kind of suspicious…”. No one bluntly says they aren’t a Catfish unless they are a Catfish *slowly rubs beard*. But I wanted to see for myself. So, I hit her with a creative opening line for the first message:

We get to talking in the Tinder app…and immediately I noticed that she wasn’t a real person. I make it a goal to expose her! I get them off of Tinder to start texting because I want to get them on FaceTime. And as soon as we start texting…this happens:

Basically her request is that in exchange for me ordering her a pizza…she will take me on a date! Hahaha! Time to reel in this Catfish! I told her that I’ll order her a pizza under one condition. All she had to do was FaceTime me! And then there were messages on top of messages of excuses. She eventually says “Okay, I’ll send you a video. Hold on.”

And I wait…and wait…

But while I’m waiting I decide to Google image search her Tinder photos and lo and behold I found the REAL girl’s Instagram page.

Then I get a video message from the Catfish…and it was the fakest video ever! It was was a screen recording of a video from the real girl’s Instagram page. But, I fed into it and acted like she fooled me.

I got all her information for the pizza. Went on dominos.com…and ordered a pizza to be sent to her house (where she had to pay at the door of course). I forgot to put pineapple and ham for the toppings though…

…whoops! ;)
