A woman on TikTok has revealed the shocking moment she learnt her boyfriend was pretending to be an FBI agent.
Most people are guilty of over-hyping themselves on dating profiles and first dates. Naturally you want to put the best version of yourself forward rather than reveal your worst habits too early on in the dating process.
However there is a fine line between selling the best version of yourself and straight up lying, with one woman left horrified to discover the man she was dating wasn't who he said he was.

Opening up in a viral post on TikTok, Jenna explained that she had taken the plunge onto dating apps in order to find love back in 2021 - however her match didn't quite go as expected.
"I dated an FBI agent for six months, or did I," she said in the viral post from 2022, before going on to reveal the date told her about his 'job' within the first five minutes of their first date after matching on Hinge.
However he would later use his job as the 'perfect alibi' in to get out of questions, as well as keeping his life very secretive.

She even revealed that he accused her of texting her ex and claiming that the 'FBI' had found this out for him.
Now Jenna has since reflected on the whole relationship and how she discovered he was lying to her in an episode of The Dating Detectives, with the content creator discussing her experience with host private investigator Mackenzie Fultz.
"Something felt wrong, so I started investigating. That's when I understood that my emotions had utterly blinded me," she recalled, before explaining that a friend working in the US Intelligence sector had found no record of him on FBI databases.

"My ex was not in the FBI," she continued. "In fact, he had never even been through FBI training. There was absolutely nothing in his background connected to the FBI whatsoever."
Jenna then went on to add that the man hadn't conned her out of money or asked to stay with her during the relationship, explaining that he'd simply lied for 'the thrill of it'.
She continued: "He was always super secretive, yet I clearly remember seeing an FBI resume and cover letter on his desktop, almost as if he wanted me to see it. He had no social media or friends I could meet.

"He claimed all his friends were away on deployments with the military," Jenna added, revealing the podcast host had told her the ex had 'zero job history' other than previously serving in the military.
Jenna would go on to learn that she wasn't the only woman who he'd lied to, adding that she'd later connected with a woman from Florida whose experience sounded very similar to hers.
"Turns out it was him," she added.
