Marc J. Tropeano PI is aware that Catfish Investigations have become a popular word in social media circles. It is a deceptive behavior by an individual who will use social network outlets, internet dating apps or sites, online gaming, and even chatrooms for nefarious purposes. Catfishing is usually tied to romantic windlessness but also involves an attempt to defraud you financially. Most cases include using images that are either altered, out of date, or used with the actual person’s permission. The information used by the catfisher is often false or partially true. You may suspect an individual due to finding holes in their story or them always having an explanation if you push them further.
HOW TO TELL IF YOU NEED A CATFISH INVESTIGATION
- Things an individual tells you won’t add up
- They ask for money or other types of items
- Pictures are out of date, grainy, screenshots, or blurry
- They won’t send images or videos of themselves when asked
- They will not commit to meeting in person
- You met this person online
THERE ARE ALSO DIFFERENT TYPES OF CATFISH INVESTIGATIONS

- Two people catfish each other
A private investigator or private detective will conduct a catfish investigation to find out the identity of the individual on the other side of the computer or app. During an initial catfish investigation, your private investigator may request certain types of information. For instance, details the catfisher may have provided, whether you have met with the catfisher or not, how the catfisher made contact and sites the catfisher & you have been on at the time, and what their usernames are.
A private investigator or private eye will be licensed and specialized in gathering evidence, uncovering much-needed facts, and bringing the truth to you.
