A dramatic and terrifying memoir of a âcatfishâ scenario â when a woman meets a man online but nothing is what it seems.
25-year-old Megan Henley put her five-year-old daughter to bed one evening and switched on her laptop. A Facebook âfriend requestâ seemed to be genuine. There were a few common friends and very similar interests, so Megan accepted.
With that one simple act, she changed her life forever. In her words: âlooking back on it, it was as if I had opened my front door to a stranger, as if I had thrown away every precaution Iâd ever put in place, as if I had freely given access to my whole world â all because of some naĂŻve belief that it was âjustâ a friend request on a social media site.â Megan is tricked into paranoia, marriage and ultimately betrayal by the man she loved and trusted but nothing is as it seems.
