catfish

Someone who pretends to be someone they're not online to create false identities, particularly to pursue deceptive online romances.

Freshman year I started chatting with this chill girl online, only for her to turn out ugly-ass catfish. Never again.

Catfished

To extend the truth to get a date

To be lied too by a munter over Facebook or other social media! Who turns out to be 300lb heavier than described. That is to be catfished

catfish

Despite what the other definitions on here say, a person who catfishes online is not a catfish. The term "catfishing" (online) derives from real-world fishing. The person who is catfishing puts the bait out there, and waits for someone to bite. The person who falls for the bait and believes the catfisher is the catfish.

I love to catfish for hot girls so I can break their stupid catfish hearts.

After I ate a whole catfish with the head on before the Nascar race, I stabbed Mark, Dak and Kelly with my catfish bones.
