A JEALOUS woman who posed as fake police officers to control her ex-boyfriend and to even stop him from seeing other women has been jailed.
Lauren Adderley, 21, used "sophisticated catfish style behaviour" to convince her former partner Mitchell Lloyd, 22, he was part of a police investigation.
The article wasn't very well written. Why did he believe her? What did she say that made him think he was banned from bars, women and had a curfew? Is he mentally slow, or is this a common way police work in the UK? Or were their personal visits and phone calls? When did the suicide attempt happen? Was she harassing him personally while the other fake police stuff was going on?
'Catfishing'? That is a term I've never seen. What does it mean and where is it used?
It comes from a movie and then a spin off show. It's pretending to be people you aren't online....usually to have them as a romantic partner. like lying about your photo, name, gender, etc. and then having ha online romance

Isn't it also used to extract money from them like posing as a pretty young girl in Russia trying to help her family while in reality a 30yo dude living in an apartment trying to run a con game?
Send me money for plane ticket to come see you, my mom needs an operation type scam?
They used to call those lonely hearts scams I think....back in the pen and paper days.

Yeah...I think its usually described as a scam where "love" is at play but I am sure could include many different scams...basically pretending to be someone else online I guess.
