Time transcripts of FacebookImposter [00:00:00:00] Ok. I've been on Facebook for about 5 years since about 8th grade, probably, [00:00:06:23] and I use it alot to communicate it with people. [00:00:09:22] and Deshaun Thomas, one of the basketball players, is from my home town. [00:00:14:13] So I thought oh, I'll add him as a friend and we ended up talking and exchanging numbers [00:00:20:02] and we talked for a long time throughout the basketball season. [00:00:22:28] I would just wish him luck before every game [00:00:24:20] and then about six months later I find out that this was an imposter [00:00:27:26] and it wasn't actually Deshaun Thomas and so I don't even know who the real Deshaun is. [ Laughing ] [00:00:33:28] [ Interviewer: You don't know who that person was? ] [00:00:35:24] No. I still haven't found out who it was. [ Interviewer: It was all season? ] [00:00:38:17] Umm humm. So it's the big joke of [ claps ] me and all my friends now. [00:00:43:09] [ Interviewer: How did you find out that it was an imposter? ] [00:00:45:22] Some of the stuff he was saying wasn't really like adding together, [00:00:48:05] so I was like hmmm and then one time he told me that he lived in Lincoln Tower, [00:00:53:10] which I was like, no that's not true at all. [00:00:56:10] And, just some of the, I don't know, we started putting two and two together. [00:01:01:06] [ Interviewer: That is sketchy ] [Laughing] [00:01:04:08] I didn't tell anything personal so I mean, it wasn't a big deal, [00:01:07:02] but like somebody wasted that much time of their life [00:01:10:12] like they would text me first every time like, I wasn't, like, trying that hard [00:01:15:13] [ Interviewer says So you're communication was on the phone, mostly texting? ] [00:01:18:15] Yeah, yeah but like we exchanged numbers through Facebook and that's how we originally starting talking [00:01:22:18] [ Interviewer says Fascinating ] [00:01:25:01] [ Laughing throughout ] It's interesting. [00:01:29:01] [ Interviewer says Have you had anything like that since? ] [00:01:30:23] No, I just like completely deleted the number. [00:01:32:28] I was like, this is pointless, but one of my friends, I found out, is friends with the read Deshaun Thomas [00:01:38:23] and so we're like Oh my Gosh, we're like, so she's about to like compare their numbers and stuff [ Laughing ] [00:01:44:14] [ Interviewer says Oh perfect ] [00:01:45:16] So yeah, we've turned this into an investigation, but yeah [00:01:48:25] [ Interviewer says Wow. Ok. Perfect. Thank you ]
