Hi, I've had at least 30 requests over the last few years of owning a firbit from scammers and most recently catfish that almost worked but I was on the case from day one  I'd suggest a group chat where other ladies or gents can add info regarding this and how to spot them. Its rife on fitbit I can tell you. Lots are south african scammers and russian. You can also reverse photo check their pics if they send any and it'll tell you where the pic has appeared before. The guy i was talking too must of been working with them as i did the usual checks facetime phone conversation got him to draw a picture of a tree and put it next to his face and send me this pic which he did. Any thoughts ??

Nigerian catfishers are tricky. Not sure I would trust anyone trying to do more then have a workout.

The catfishers are on fitbit and lots of other apps they are good at what they do which is get you to send them money.
