The main reason she got caught was because the police and the lady actually thought it was a male hurting a female. If a female was doing it to a male, there would have been little concern.
Just the "Catfish" concept alone is pretty terrible. I knew a guy who was a super nice person, but he was shy. He had a hard time meeting girls. He met someone online and became totally smitten... Later it turned out this person was absolutely made up, using someone elses photos and all that. He was devastated and I felt really bad for him.
Yes the same thing happened to my husband’s cousin years ago. When he finally drove many hours to see her, she turned out to be a completely different person than in the pictures she used. She was a lot older and much less attractive than the cute young lady his age that he thought he was talking to... I’m surprised they didn’t video call before the actual meeting. But back then it wasn’t as common I guess.
@@ALT-vz3jnsome Indian guy just jerking his meat to your friends dick pics & making your boy go broke sending him money. 😂🤦🏼♂️ All jokes aside that's messed up...I hate being super shy at first...if I know someone then it gets better over time but at first it's like I can't even think of conversation. Pretty fucking awkward honestly. I have such an adventurous spirit & have I done some wild shit, but no one would ever guess that if they're meeting me for the first time.
@@dazzlerwebmy husband’s cousin got catfished by a woman; he drove to her country to see her (he lives in Europe, so it was only 4-5 hours away) when he got to her place she wouldn’t open the front door for him. When she finally did open the door she was not at all the same woman in the pictures. She was older, and let’s say not the same level of attractiveness. So he just turned around and left her standing there without a word, got a room at a B&B and spent a couple of days sightseeing before going back home. He was very disappointed. I wish catfishers truly realized the great amount of harm they do.
When the person keeps making excuses why they can't meet in person, you should then insist on a video chat in real time. If they make up excuse why they can't do that, dump them because they are 100% fake.
@Medic1647 I do know the definition. Someone who gets pleasure from hurting or humiliating other people. I absolutely used this common term correctly. It seems you might want to look up the definition of words before arrogantly trying to correct others. There doesn't need to be a sxl component for someone to be a sadist.
If some of these psychos would put in the same amount of work, efforts, and creative determination into something positive, we'd may actually have already solved problems like world hunger and cancer.
@@dawsondetrana5496 Lol! Team numpty is always recruiting & seems like quite a few big egos & tiny IQs 😂 still have to feel a little bit sorry for someone who is duped & embarrassed by a heartless psychopath even if the setup & circumstances seem disconnected from reality
that doesn't really make sense. She IS a psycho and evil and so was NEVER and CAN NEVER put it to good use. And it's a naive thought on world hunger and cancer(s), which are too numerous to count. A lot of world hunger is caused by communism, fascism, dictators and warlords in third world countries stealing food (it was the cause of Blackhawk Down). Not sure one psycho with good intentions (which makes no sense) would change that.
Thanks for covering this case. It was all over the news here🇦🇺. Horrendous what she did. Very disturbing individual. I hope the police keep tabs on her because I don't think she'll stop her behaviour. She has no empathy or regret for the lady who took her own life. Seems psychopathic.
Lydia should probably be behind bars for even longer to be honest. She caused so much anxiety and pain to her victims. A very vindictive person to add.
I just don't get how a mature adult woman can fall in love with someone you've never even talked to let alone met. How can just texting make you fall in love?
I just cannot get into developing a relationship over social media. It’s hard enough to suss out if someone is misrepresenting themselves face-to-face let alone online.
Remember he’s not diagnosing anyone just speculating on a situation that may be similar. My opinion is humanity is not what you think it is,leave it alone and it will naturally correct itself.
We had another case in Australia where a woman impersonated a man who catfished a famous singer in a "relationship" that last 10 years. When the victim realised that the "love interest" was a female that she actually knew she was devastated.
It's hard to fathom what these catfishers GET from doing this - you'd think it was for the personal connection (however false), but after they're exposed, they then harrass the victim! It took me many decades to figure out malignant narcissism, so now I'll need to do a Deep Dive into catfishing.
Her brain must have told her to do it even if we do not understand why. In Australia we have men running around kicking an egg shaped bag of air between two sticks and thousands of others pay money to watch them. Well something must motivate them to do it.
I recently saw this story on Australian 60 Minutes. So sad that Emma took her own life. Jess was a pretty woman. She could have met a good looking guy in person. Sad all the way around. Lydia is sick.
@@nyreekrikoriangut feeling on her name she's from Pakistan origins it's pretty frowned upon in Islam to be gay so that could be why she was being such a weirdo. I'm not diagnosing just guessing 😅
Listening to Dr Grande is part of my sleep routine. I always fall asleep to his soothing voice and monothonic tone. He should really consider making these relaxation audio clips, like body scanning, mentalization, etc. His voice would be jusr perfect for that. 😍😍😍
Dr. Grande .....BRAVO!! BRAVO!! BRAVO!!!! I am absolutely fascinated by the cases you cover!!!!!!

Lydia, aka "Lincoln", can take comfort in signing a 4-season contract with a non-profit organization, as a leading actress of her own spin-off : "Jail and Away".
It never amazes me why women would send revealing or nude pics of themselves to some stranger on the internet! Why would you think someone online would ask you for this kind of photo to begin with? A lot of those photos end up on porn sites. You cannot be that desperate to have a “relationship” with someone you don’t even know!
@@laurafabianmarreroHaving been acquainted with someone who suddenly cyberly befriends you is also not a good reason to send intimate, or any, photos.
Absolutely a silly thing to do. I guess people are lonely and when they make a connection they get a high from it, and are more vulnerable to this kind of coercive behaviour.
Man at this point in my life, I still go for the crazy ones knowing it's never gonna last but just enjoying the ride as long as it lasts. Something about unhinged women is they quickly tend to fall in love and are crazy passionate.
That Lydia person is one truly deranged human. Meanwhile, why did "Emma" fall in love with someone sight unseen, and worse, AFTER finding out the person was faking the first time?
The first case I heard about catfishing was the Renae Marsden case and it impacted me on so many levels. The amount of work these people put to deceive their victims and the incredible psychological damage that they cause it’s horrible. At least Lydia received some punishment but it’s not even enough in my opinion.
Dr Grande should do a video about the good things about New Jersey, that is the extensive interstate network, Newark airport, and of course its close proximity to the Hudson River
I think Lydia knew exactly what she was doing. And she deserves more than just 4 years. You don't prey on people's emotions like that and think it's a game. She knowingly and deliberately hurt people. What a sick individual she is. I have no remorse for her.
My theory: If Lydia had been happy in her own love life she would not have felt the need to bring chaos into other people's lives. She was obviously disillusioned and bitter over failed relationships and got a thrill, an emotional high, from leading people on only to burst their bubble when the timing was right, just as her bubble had burst on her. It was her form of revenge, satisfaction, and entertainment to hurt others as she herself had been hurt. 🧚♀
I hope you don't take offence to this but I watch all your videos during the day and then I replay them throughout the night because mate, your voice is so soothing
I have a hard time keeping up with myself. Much less fake people. Again another reason for Me to stay alone or include just a few people Always interesting Thank you Peace 💕🇺🇲
Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about what could be happening during a very special episode of 'As the Catfish Turns', like this.
In middle school, a girl told me a teen idol was her cousin. "Come over. He's supposed to drop by." Showing me pictures of him then dropping the subject when it was time for me to go. I think she enjoyed her short reign of power.
Dear Dr Grande, she is better off behind bars. I think she is likely to repeat the scam once released. She is clearly sadistic and unprincipled. She now has an extended holiday at His Majesties Hotel = gaol. Excellent, enjoyable and another quirky matter well explained.
The catfish movie was named after an old guy told a story about shipping fish between the Atlantic in colonial times. Has nothing to do with fakes online.
Not very often that you find a romance scammer who is not motivated by money. In fact, she even gave one of her victims a small amount of money - very unusual.
Good evening Dr. Grand⚜️e. You’re looking well. It truly is a pleasure to get home, settle in & find your TH-cam videos. I always find them enlightening with great information as well as a bit of your cynicism added for good measure.😉 Thanks Dr.G.⚜️
Genuine LOVE is far too precious to risk on the idea of someone online whom you've never met. Remember, there are plenty of real fish in the sea. And be careful! Always meet for the first few dates in a very public place and always bring someone you can trust with you! And do a background check! You're worth these precautions! ❤️
Theory: She is lesbian, but grew up in a highly repressed environment, therefore has always been closeted to the point she never even verbalized a hint of her proclivities/sexuality to a single soul. She turned online as an outlet, but even there she had too much shame and self hate to use her own identity or even gender identity. All this suppression manifested itself in completely toxic ways in the online "fantasy" world.
Nah, she just likes messing with peoples heads, we all knew people at school who's daily goal was making others miserable, there are no shortage of people like this.
I think she's just a sadist who hated other women. Without any evidence that she grew up in an environment so repressive she was never even able to form the thought that she was a lesbian I think that's the only conclusion possible.
This is the most bizarre one yet. Especially since the poor lady victim ended up insane and actually ended her own life. Could you run an analysis of the victim?
Maybe I would think differently if I lived in a large country like Australia, but I have no understanding of how/why someone considers they are in a romantic relationship with someone they have never met. Is this common? I could never invest much enthusiasm into anyone I had never met in the flesh, maybe in the early stages, but if we hadn't managed to get together in the real world within a few weeks, it would never progress to the point of any sensitive photos being sent. Is this a generational thing?
Jedes Drehbuch für einen Film mit dieser bizarren Story würde abgelehnt werden. Zu unglaubwürdig. 🤯 Die armen Opfer! Es muss eine schreckliche Erfahrung für sie gewesen sein. Dr. Grande, danke für dieses Video!
For once, I’d love him to say: “Today’s question is: can I analyze the case of so-and-so. No. No, I can’t.”
Would be a great April fools joke
That would be Dr. Grande’s self analysis
You won't be hearing that here...😎
Can he analyze the state of New Jersey?
@@stringfellowbalk2654He certainly seems to have an aversion to NJ...
She appealed and ended up getting her sentence INCREASED? That's amazing.
I thought so too. 🤭
Yes 😂😂😂😂
4-6 yrs
She isnt very smart
She really deserved it.
The main reason she got caught was because the police and the lady actually thought it was a male hurting a female. If a female was doing it to a male, there would have been little concern.
Just as well it was increased, considering the usual length of time of Australian sentences.
"Her fake character had his own fake character".... You slay me Dr. Grande😅

When sadistic meets gullible….I’m blown away by the sheer amount of both in this story.
Yes, one could easily tell it was fake!
This is beyond gullible, it's low IQ or mental disabilities. I can't imagine anyone being THIS gullible.

Romance scammers are utterly contemptible. A special circle of hell should be reserved for them. Thanks for another jaw-dropping video, Dr. Grande!
It’s happened to me a couple of times but luckily I broke it off be it got deep.
Romance scammers are not the same as catfish scammers. Look up romance scammers. Completely different thing.

I can't even figure how she did it. I barely have enough time to check my personal emails.
Only getting 2 years for that mountain of stinking evil was the deal of the century. To appeal against it was pure insanity.
I always think that in these type of cases. It’s all consuming for sure.
@@dawsondetrana5496 If that is the case then you should get yourself to a doctor real quick. You really should.
Emma is not too smart, either.
She's just a sadist. She enjoyed manipulating others and psychologically torturing other people.
Know the definition of sadist before you label a person as such...attachments come with serious consequences.
@Medic1647 I do know the definition. Someone who gets pleasure from hurting or humiliating other people. I absolutely used this common term correctly. It seems you might want to look up the definition of words before arrogantly trying to correct others. There doesn't need to be a sxl component for someone to be a sadist.
I agree this woman is a sadist .. who is dangerously jealous of other females, imo .
Or as Dr Grande said, was engaging in "relationships" with women, which were perhaps disapproved of for cultural and or religious reasons.
She cost someone their life with her cruel games.
If some of these psychos would put in the same amount of work, efforts, and creative determination into something positive, we'd may actually have already solved problems like world hunger and cancer.
You might have a point except in this instance the psycho is of limited intelligence & probably just better off locked up in a mental facility

It happens unfortunately
no one is immune to manipulation
Ya I don’t understand that too.

I just cannot get into developing a relationship over social media. It’s hard enough to suss out if someone is misrepresenting themselves face-to-face let alone online.

no wonder she had memory loss, my brain shorted out just listening to her story.
The healthy man does not torture others-generally it is the tortured who turn into torturers.... Carl Jung

She worked so hard to do something psychotic, and didn't even become a serial killer.

Genuine LOVE is far too precious to risk on the idea of someone online whom you've never met. Remember, there are plenty of real fish in the sea. And be careful! Always meet for the first few dates in a very public place and always bring someone you can trust with you! And do a background check! You're worth these precautions! ❤️
Has Dr. Todd covered the Aisling Tucker Moore-Reed case?
Theory: She is lesbian, but grew up in a highly repressed environment, therefore has always been closeted to the point she never even verbalized a hint of her proclivities/sexuality to a single soul. She turned online as an outlet, but even there she had too much shame and self hate to use her own identity or even gender identity. All this suppression manifested itself in completely toxic ways in the online "fantasy" world.
I think it's more than theory. I think it's highly probable.
Makes a lot of sense.
Nah, she just likes messing with peoples heads, we all knew people at school who's daily goal was making others miserable, there are no shortage of people like this.
I think she's just a sadist who hated other women. Without any evidence that she grew up in an environment so repressive she was never even able to form the thought that she was a lesbian I think that's the only conclusion possible.
Yep
This is the most bizarre one yet. Especially since the poor lady victim ended up insane and actually ended her own life. Could you run an analysis of the victim?
Ahhh waking up Grande ...Sunday morning happy feels 🇦🇺
Maybe I would think differently if I lived in a large country like Australia, but I have no understanding of how/why someone considers they are in a romantic relationship with someone they have never met. Is this common? I could never invest much enthusiasm into anyone I had never met in the flesh, maybe in the early stages, but if we hadn't managed to get together in the real world within a few weeks, it would never progress to the point of any sensitive photos being sent. Is this a generational thing?
😊 thank you Dr. Grande! We love your videos!
Thank you Dr. Grande!! Enjoy your weekend……😇🌵❤ from Jean.
Jedes Drehbuch für einen Film mit dieser bizarren Story würde abgelehnt werden. Zu unglaubwürdig. 🤯
Die armen Opfer! Es muss eine schreckliche Erfahrung für sie gewesen sein.
Dr. Grande, danke für dieses Video!
