I became suspicious the girlfriend I met online might not be telling me the truth and there were beginning to be several red flags, so I hired an investigator with Social Catfish. Bri Fernandes did an excellent job taking the information I provided to do an in-depth investigation. The results only confirmed what I suspected, but will be useful as evidence in filing reports with various agencies including the FBI.
The report was detailed on how she collected the information that either confirmed or denied suspected activity. I will also say, that Bri had access to software through her job that allowed her to do a deeper dive into my "girlfriend" than a typical citizen could obtain. I am no amateur when it comes to tech and investigations, but there was only so far I could go on my own. I highly recommend social catfish investigations if you suspect being catfished or scammed. At a minimum, it will give you the information you may not want to hear, but need to. At a maximum, the person(s) responsible might be brought to justice by pursuing legal action so this does not happen to anyone else.
Again, thank you Bri Fernandes for taking the time to thoroughly investigate my case explaining the process to me, and willing to answer any of questions.
