In this era, remember that seeing is no longer believing.
And let's start with this case.
Tell us what happened.
This is a bonkers case.
Earlier this year, 25-year-old Tyler McCorskey, who millions of people actually know online as Vukom.
He's a luxury watch dealer.
He was on his way to the airport.
for a family vacation, his first trip ever to the Bahamas, when right as he was boarding, police arrested him on a felony warrant out of Florida.
According to court documents, a 65-year-old man believed that he had purchased a $6,000 luxury watch from Tyler through Facebook.
He wired the money, but that watch never arrived.
So investigators initially believed Tyler was responsible, even though Tyler says he's actually never even sold watches through Facebook.
So how did they figure out that they had the wrong person?
So Tyler spent three days in jail while investigators continued looking into this case, and he told me that once officers explained why he was being arrested, he immediately started putting the pieces together.
Investigators eventually discovered someone else had created fake social media accounts using Tyler's name, his photos, his videos.
They were basically impersonating him and scamming buyers.
So authorities finally figured out it wasn't Tyler who was the scammer.
He himself was actually a victim of an elaborate identity theft scheme.
And that warrant was vacated and the charges were dropped.
Absolutely, Andrea.
He says that scammers have been impersonating him for years.
