NATO Group 'Catfished' Soldiers to Prove a Point About Privacy. “The phony Facebook pages looked just like the real thing. They were designed to mimic pages that service members use to connect. One appeared to be geared toward a large-scale, military exercise in Europe and was populated by a handful of accounts that appeared to be real service members. In reality, both the pages and the accounts were created and operated by researchers at NATO’s Strategic Communications Center of Excellence, a research group that’s affiliated with NATO.

I always knew there was something fishy about Catfish. I guess the guy I met at the Subsim meet was probably just a hired actor.

Schroeder, i will only say it wasn't me with whom you drove to the Subsim meeting at Laboe..

I don't know how some people can be so underhanded, secretive and devious

Will the real Catfish please step forward

I did some exhaustive and extensive research and discovered that Catfish is really a Jewish Cowboy named Bucky Goldstein and working on a ranch in Texas and married to a beautiful blonde haired Japanese woman.

I could be wrong though.

Easy really, just use the simple rule of deduction, he's not black, nor is he a LEO, doesn't wear shades or a woolly hat....

It's nice to know others are familiar with the comedy of Steven Wright.

This was part of his routine some years ago. Steven was funny. You're also right about the Chinese woman but I intentionally changed it.

Are you saying Catfish is actually a child musical prodigy and an aficionado of the Violin ? That settles it. In my next life, I want to be Catfish.
