Have you ever been catfished before? Or know someone who has?
OK, so now I know what "catfishing" means.
Back in my day, we went by face to face meetings and not by cgi enhanced digital photography. Yeah, there was makeup, but there wasn't as much back then in my estimation.
By the way, the girl at the top is probably looking at her worst. That is, she'll get much better looking from here. Eventually her braces will come off and the zits will disappear/diminish. Her naturally oily skin will look great in her 40's when other women might have leathery skin.

catfishing for me is when someone uses pics of a completely different person and pretends to be that one, not just hiding behind a ton of makeup
The first girl would be prettier if she wore LESS makeup. In some ways, she's prettier in the first pic, just had that acne. A bit of foundation and concealer, some mascara, maybe some eyeliner... that's all.
The highlight looks fake af. The overdrawn eyebrows look much more Andy Rooney than Cara Delevingne.

Yes I have and he still never admitted to me, I met him in year 7 so I was fairly young and towards the end of our friendship it never really ended-ended but we just stopped talking and I knew that he was one, but he never really came out and said it. LOL

Not in the way depicted by your examples, no, thank God. I'm pretty careful like that.
Anybody who's used GAG for any length of time will have been catfished by a profile on here at one time or another, though. -
I was almost catfished, but I screen my dates before meeting up. A brief video-chat is the least I require before I am willing to give up my time to meet someone I do not know.

I guess it depends on what you mean by that term. Have I interacted with people who aren't who they claim to be? Absolutely. That basically describes 95% of the "hot girl" profiles on here. But I think "real" catfishing involves the person actually taking the interaction seriously, which I never do. So I think that means I haven't been catfished.
