Should 'catfishing' be made illegal?
Anna Rowe had a whirlwind romance with Antony Ray after meeting him through the dating app Tinder. But their 14-month relationship came crashing down when she discovered his profile was a fake. In fact, he was a married dad who had initially used photos of a Bollywood actor on his profile and had lured in other women too. "He used me like a hotel with benefits under the disguise of a romantic, loving relationship that he knew I craved," says Anna. The practice of using a fake profile to start an online romance is known as "catfishing".
