Just going to respond to it here, to tell all of you at once what happened.

I told him today "I'm scared because this feels too good to be true".

And he said "let me show you" and sent me a picture of himself. Supposedly.

I reversed image searched, and found all the pictures he used of himself on a Brazilian kinda public person.

As soon as I realized, I said "so long and thanks for all the fish".

I sent him the links to the person he used images from.

In case anyone else needs them, to stay safe, especially in Sweden.

It didn't occur to me to reverse image search until just now, the ratio of the image wasn't a selfie ration, and I caught that.

This is why I don't send nudes on the internet before I've met the person.

I sent him one suggestive image this morning, after I had showered.

I don't regret it because the image is of no consequence to me.

I also don't regret the good 30mins I got out of this last night. Worst case right? Hahha, Little did I know.

I reported his account both on Tinder and on Facebook, as pretending to be someone they are not.

on Tinder I wrote "scam / catfish / pretending to be someone they aren't"

And now I'm warning other women in a local Facebook group.

I actually initially got suspicious when he sent the same crotch image twice.... :D I should've done some googling then.

@maloki
Come here. Let me take some of your pain and give you nice warm hugs.
You probably know all of this but:
Other people failures are not a reflection of your character.
You are loved.
You are welcomed and needed.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

@Dusky I know, but it's nice to be reminded.

Currently cuddling with a very nice warm person. I'm good. 🙃
