Reverse Catfishing 

Pretending to be much uglier than you really are online.

Guy 1: So how was your date?
Guy 2: I had doubts about dating that girl because of her ugly photos online, but in person she was gorgeous and seductive. I was a victim of reverse catfishing. I am going to therapy now to deal with it.
