I’m sure reading that title you immediately thought to yourself “I’m not a Catfish” but that’s because our idea of a Catfish isn’t totally complete. We associate a Catfish as someone who uses someone else's photos online to create a completely falsified social media account. And if you’re anything like the majority of us out here on the web — your profile has your real name and actual photos of you. The term “Catfish” defined by Urban Dictionary is “someone who pretends to be someone they're not — using Facebook or other social media to create false identities” and just because your photos are of you and your name is tacked on the top of your accounts, doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not creating a false identity. |
