Speaker 1: My name is David Fisher. I've been a journalist for
Speaker 1: more than thirty years. In twenty eleven, I started investigating
Speaker 1: the case of a catfisher, an adult woman who had
Speaker 1: been using photographs to trick dozens of teenage boys and
Speaker 1: young men into romantic relationships. We called her the Facebook Predator.
Speaker 1: She called herself the Puppeteer. In my career, I've written
Speaker 1: thousands of stories and interviewed too many people to count,
Speaker 1: some who have been in my life for only a moment,
Speaker 1: and others have stuck around. This is one story that
Speaker 1: I thought I was done with. That's until I get
Speaker 1: an email out of the blue over a decade after
Speaker 1: my original investigation, and I found myself drawn back into
Speaker 1: the world of potentially New Zealand's worst catfisher. Join me
Speaker 1: in the new season of Chasing Ghosts as I re
Speaker 1: examined my original investigation, learn what I've missed at the time,
Speaker 1: and find out if there's any way to stop a
Speaker 1: serial catfisher. Listen to Chasing Ghosts The Puppeteer at inzid
