Catfish Rodeo
The film Catfish is a perfect example of how easy it is to be anyone on the web. It may shock some people how easily it is to pose as either another existing person or your own Frankenstein creation. Note how easy Angela was able to be several people at once, and how long she was able to keep up this charade without even making Nev suspicious. However she eventually gets careless and her story begins to unravel as holes begin to form.
It begins with her copying a song and posing it as, her as Megan. Nev and his friends find the original and become skeptical. As time progresses they uncover more and more of the flaws in her story. They find that Abbey's studio is not owned by her and that Megan doesn't live at the farm she mentioned. When Nev finally confronts Angela about her web of lies she confesses, almost. After meeting her she still continues to lie on several things. She lies about having cancer, and about Megan being in rehab. In the end she still remains in contact with Nev, but it is difficult to be sure what exactly is true of her, as she has proven that she will lie about almost anything.
