I got catfished by a guy

Hey, it's me again. So a few days ago,

something, something happened to me,

something that's pretty crazy, and it's,

it's really just a terrifying thing, and I

feel like I need to explain what happened

to you. So I don't know, maybe so other

people don't fall for the same trap, so

other people don't get tricked this way.

It all started when I started talking to

this girl called Jun. Shigeta. I don't

know if you notice her in the comments.

She used to comment quite a lot. She was

very, she was very flirty with me, and I'm

not gonna lie, I'm very flirty back to

girls who are flirty to me. And she

added me, she added me to Line, and we

were chatting to each other for several

weeks, and we were getting very sexual and

flirty with each other, and She asked me

to send her pictures of my penis and

videos of me masturbating. And if

a girl asks me for those kinds of

pictures, then I usually just send them

without question. I like sending girls

pictures of my genitals. It's no lie. I'm

not ashamed about my genitals. I don't

feel embarrassed about them. I feel

insecure about lots of things in life,

but my penis isn't one of them. It all

started when she sent me these private

messages on YouTube.

As you can see, he's changed his name from

Jun to Kiki, and he changed the picture of

the Japanese girl to a really old picture

of me with a pretty cool-looking

hairstyle. So I added her to LINE and we

started chatting on a daily basis. And she

told me that she was this

Australian-Japanese girl living in

Australia. She said that she didn't know

how to speak Japanese very well, and she

also said that she often visits Japan once

or twice a year. And she said that next

time she comes to Japan, we could meet up

and we could have sex. And then she asked

me for some pictures of my penis, which I

provided her with. She also asked me for a

video of me masturbating. Which I also

provided her with. When I asked her to

send me some pictures as well, she just

sent me 2 photos of her which seemed like

pretty old photos. One of them she was

playing golf and the other one she was

with a friend. Um, I asked her to

send me some nude photos but she refused.

And I also asked her to send me a voice

message just so I could see if she was

actually a girl. And she said no. She said

that she wasn't going to just do anything

that I asked her to. She's not going to be

like one of those submissive Japanese

girls that I'm used to. And I know I

should have— I should have noticed that

those were red flags when she refused to

send me more photos, when she refused to

send me voice messages. I should have

known that— that she was pretending to be

who she was, that it was just some guy or

some other person. Pretending to be her.

But there was just like a part of

me that wanted to ignore those red flags.

I wanted to believe that Jun was who she

actually said she was because I

felt attracted to her. The idea of having

sex with her was really interesting and it

turned me on. And I've just been feeling

so incredibly bored these days That the

idea of having an affair with this cute

young Japanese girl just really excited

me, and I tricked myself really into

believing that she was real. I really

wanted her to be real. I didn't care how

many red flags there were. We had lots of

deep conversations about love,

relationships, things like that. I felt

like I could really talk to her about the

things that I was unhappy about with my

current relationship. And then I started

talking to this different girl, this

younger one who lives in Japan, and I

actually lost interest in Jun. I stopped

talking to Jun for about a week or more.

And then the whole LINE thing happened

where my LINE got deleted because they

shadow banned me. And I

tried to make a new LINE account using a

public virtual phone number, and I was

able to make a new LINE account, but

people kept trying to log into it. They

kept using the public number to reset the

password and then log into it, and then I

had to log back in and then re-verify the

phone number, and it was just such a

hassle. I tried contacting Jun again using

LINE, and we had a really short

conversation before someone hacked my LINE

account again. And I kept trying to get

Jun to use different messaging apps like

Instagram or KakaoTalk or WhatsApp, but

she was really insistent on using Line to

talk to me, and I couldn't understand why.

And one night I was just really fed up.

I woke up in the middle of the night,

maybe 4 AM, and I couldn't sleep, so I was

just reading YouTube comments, and I was

replying to her, and I was trying to get

her to use a different app like Instagram

to talk to me. I said that I couldn't make

a Line account because I don't have a

phone number that I can use to make one.

And she wouldn't use any other app apart

from LINE. She kept saying, I don't want

to use Instagram, I don't want to use any

other apps. If you really want to talk to

me, then you'll have to try harder. And I

was just getting so fed up with her. She

wouldn't send me any nudes, she wouldn't

send me any photos of her, even just

simple selfies. She wouldn't even send me

a simple voice message saying one word

like hello, just so I can tell that she's

a girl. And she wouldn't use Instagram.

She wouldn't even download Instagram or a

different app. And I decided to put my

foot down. I said, no, Jun, if, if you're

not willing to take the 20 seconds it

takes to download Instagram or something

else, then I can't be bothered talking to

you anymore. And then I said goodbye. And

then I think that was the point when this

person pretending to be Jun thought that

that's as far as he could push it. And

that he's not going to get anything else

out of me. He already got what he wanted.

He got my dick pics, he got my

masturbating videos, he got the chat logs

proving that I was flirting with other

girls, that I was trying to hook up with

other girls behind my girlfriend's back.

So I guess he already got what he wanted

from this whole experience,

and that there was no point in pretending

to be Jun anymore. And that's— that was

when he revealed himself. He sent me this

private message on YouTube. Don't worry,

Daniel JL. All those videos of you

masturbating that ugly little thing, all

those chat logs and their corresponding

Japanese translations, they're safe for

now. Safe with people who care about the

well-being of the unfortunate women in

Japan you are using and abusing. We have

located her contact details. Easily

enough, and in exactly 1 week, you can

know if she is to receive this explicit

information you have bombarded us with.

You have 1 week to do the right thing.

You know as well as we do you are a sleazy

fucking loser, Daniel, and not too bright,

so break it off with her and let her find

someone who cares about her. Or blog about

it and call our bluff. Consider this

public service. The party's over.

Asshole. Love, rHappas. So as you

can see, this whole thing was just a

setup. It was a setup to trick me into

giving them evidence that I'm flirting

with girls online, that I'm sending dick

pics and videos to girls online. And

they're going to use this evidence to show

to my girlfriend so that she breaks up

with me. They said that they found her

contact details And I don't know if that's

true or not. He might be making it up. I

don't know how they would find my

girlfriend's details because I've never

said her name on YouTube or on the stream.

I've never showed her face. I'm not

friends with my girlfriend on any social

media platform, so I really don't see how

anyone could find the contact details of

my girlfriend. I'd be really surprised if

they did. But these, these people are

actually pretty smart people, even if they

are pretty scummy. In the past,

people like this from Reddit have found

out where I worked, found out where I

lived. They've found my personal

information. They found my address. They

found my family members' names. So I guess

nothing's impossible for them. If, if it's

on the internet, then it seems like they

have the skills, they have the time, they

have the know-how of how to track people

down on the internet. It doesn't matter

how— it doesn't matter how well I try to

hide my own information or my

family or my girlfriend's information. It

seems like these people know how to find

this information if it's on the internet.

I know this is all my fault, all my doing,

and I'm really sorry if I let you guys

down, if I disappointed you. I know I'm

better than this, but I'm easily

seduced. I'm easily swayed. If a cute girl

suddenly messages me out of the blue and

starts flirting with me, I'm going to be

very happy about it, and I'm going to

start flirting back. If she asks for dick

pics, I'm not going to say no because the

idea of a cute girl seeing my penis is

very, very arousing and exciting.

I am a bit worried that this person is

going to actually find my girlfriend's

contact details and then send her all

of this proof. I'm not sure what she's

gonna do, how she's gonna react. I have a

pretty convincing cover story prepared

just in case, but it's not 100% failsafe.

So, um, yeah, if,

if things do go bad, then I'm ready to

take— I'm prepared to take the punishment.

I think I deserve what's coming for me.

And from now on, I'm not gonna be so

easily tricked. If someone wants my dick

pics, then you're going to have to prove

to me that you're actually a girl before I

send you the goods. I don't—

I don't feel angry at this guy who tricked

me. I feel sad. I feel sad that Jun

doesn't exist. Because I actually

convinced myself that she was real.

And the moment he sent that message owning

up to everything, he just destroyed June.

He killed June. The June that was inside

my mind, this cute girl from Australia who

was really attracted to me and interested

in me, she just— she was destroyed by

him. She vanished. She disappeared. She

stopped existing. I know she never existed

in the first place, but I believed that

she was real and I believed she existed,

and that's the main thing.

I just feel upset.

So this is a warning to you guys. If a

cute girl just randomly messages you out

of the blue and then starts flirting with

you and starts asking for pictures 8

out of 10 times it's going to be a fake

person. It's not going to be real.

There's a very low chance of that actually

happening to anyone unless you're rich and

famous or extremely attractive, which I'm

neither of those things. It can be very

stressful doing YouTube sometimes. It's

fun, but there's so many weirdos out there

on the internet who are out to get you,

who who want to do malicious things to you

just because— I don't even know why. Out

of spite, because they're bored, because

they're jealous. And this

isn't the first time something like this

has happened. I've had people try to trick

me so many times since my channel started

to grow. I've had people make fake

accounts pretending to be me, and then

they've pretended to be me and then

contacted people I've known And then

tricks them into believing that it was

actually me. I've had other people

from the internet find out where I live.

They've doxxed me. They've shared my

personal information with other people.

And it

just gets— it gets irritating after a

while. It takes a toll on you. It makes

you feel paranoid. You can't trust anyone.

You have to keep looking over your

shoulder. People— sometimes people message

me saying that they're fans, saying that

they, they really enjoy my videos and they

want to chat to me, and I don't know if I

should believe them. I don't know if

they're actually fans, if they actually

like my videos, or if they're just

pretending to be fans so they can get

close to me, so they can get me to lower

my guard and then trick me into doing

something. There's just

a lot of messed up people on the internet,

in the world. And the problem with the

internet is they can get away with doing

things like this because they're 100%

anonymous. They can just disappear.

They can use fake accounts. They can use

fake usernames. And there's, there's

absolutely zero risk for them. For me,

everything's on the line. You can find my

personal information. You can find my

girlfriend's contact details and then

expose me. You can find my boss's email

address, like, like someone did last time

when I was working at the petrol station.

They found out where I worked and they

told my boss about my YouTube channel.

But for these people, they have nothing to

lose, and I think it's just kind of

cowardly for them to

just lurk in the shadows and then attack

people like me who who make myself known

on the internet.

And yeah, it's just cowardly, spineless.

If they had something to lose by doing

this, would they do things like this? I

don't think so. I don't think they would

have the guts to put their own privacy

on the line. I know I

shouldn't be sending dick pics or videos

like that to girls when I have a

girlfriend, but I'm 28. I'm in my sexual

prime, the peak of my sexuality, and I'm

getting all these messages. I'm getting

all this attention from the opposite sex

who are interested me— interested in me in

that way. And it's very hard to turn down.

It's very hard to ignore when you're being

noticed by females. All of my life I've

been ignored by girls. When I was 18 or

19, when most guys do this kind of thing

when they're young. I had no interest in

girls. Girls weren't interested in me

either. I was just this nerd playing

computer games. And now, now I'm getting

all this exposure. I feel like for

once in my life I'm actually attractive to

girls. Before, I've never really felt like

I was attractive to girls,

but there are several girls who are

attracted to me, and it feels nice knowing

that you're attractive to the opposite

sex. And it's just, it's just hard

to resist the temptation when, when

there's so many things tempting you.

That's the problem with the internet. It

just makes, it makes cheating and hooking

up so much more easier than it used to be.

And, um, if I do get caught, I'm prepared

to face consequences. I don't have any

Um, and I guess my

final message to Jun— not the person who's

pretending to be Jun, but the actual Jun

who I, I was fantasizing about— I guess

this is goodbye. Um, I know you never

existed, but you actually meant something

to me. I'm going to miss you.

Goodbye,
