It would be great if these groups stuck to their stated purpose of identifying cheaters. But they don't.
I showed up on one of these groups. First comment was "I think I recognize him..." And then they proceeded to tell a story that had zero resemblance to anything I've done in my life.
They said I did something terrible in Hawaii - I haven't been to Hawaii in 20 years.
They said I was mean to a dental assistant - I don't know any dental assistants.
They said I name-dropped that I'm friends with Elon musk??? Never met him, don't like him, wouldn't name drop him.
It was a completely made up story, or else a case of mistaken identity. Either way, I was straight up libeled, and I had zero realistic recourse. I wasn't interested in pursuing legal action. Pretty glad this guy is though.
