i’m pretty sure this ig account is a catfish

so her account was made in july 2026, all her pics are located in korea but the about me section says her account is based in the uk. i reversed image searched one of her pics and came across a tiktok account of a different 100% korean girl who only speaks korean and lives in korea. this girl doesnt rly post and jsut goes live sometimes, and her ig isn’t linked. i sent her a dm request but igs she didnt see it. what do i do? i’ve been catfished as before so i rly despise these kinds of ppl, but i cant rly do anything if the real girl isn’t responding

accidentally catfished as someone

so basically i’ve been posting myself on ig more lately and somehow gained like 2k followers. i guess one of my posts got on explore or smt bc i got like 2.4k shares?? anyways i put my spotify in my bio because i thought it looked cute, and my pfp on spotify was set a while ago and it was sullyoon from nmixx because people tell me i look like her all the time.

except it wasn’t sullyoon 😭😭 it was apparently some random girl. i originally saw the picture on pinterest a while ago and it was labeled as sullyoon, so i never questioned it. then someone dm’d me saying it was actually their acquaintance. i apologized to that guy and told him i apologize to his acquaintance too , then i blocked him bc i felt so embarrassed 😭😭😭 i can’t even find that pic on pinterest anymore either

my ocd is making me spiral over the whole thing guys IDK what to do. i want to unblock him and find the acquaintance and apologize but is that OD?? ugh omfg 😭😭 can anyone who’s been catfished before as tell me what to do?? i’m so embarrassed
