    Dude is absolutely unhinged. I also don't get why he chose a photo of another person to impersonate if he's looking to become a famous artist? If that's really him in the photo you were sent in post 1, he's got that "cute nonthreatening baby face" thing going on that is really popular among manufactured male popstars. Why would he choose a random bearded white guy from Canada to be "him" online? (No offense, OP, it's just you look like an indie acoustic artist and this guy is clearly trying to become the next Bieber)

    This whole thing is absolutely bizarre and I'm so sorry you've had to deal with this for years! It also sucks that places like Insta ARE really important tools for artists because Meta absolutely blows as a company and they never actually protect their users.

    All that said, you've done a great job laying out the story in a digestible manner and you've got a ton of evidence. My one piece of advice (which you've probably done already) is to archive your RBI posts somewhere so you don't lose them in case he comes after your Reddit account like he did with your Twitter.

    Thanks dude. I think this person is very unwell and possibly dangerous. I think that truly just explains it all. Dealing with this has become really stressful and just sad. I’ve been really failed by the security teams of Meta and X. I cant tell you how many reports I've had to file around the internet since this begun. He somehow got back the original Instagram username he was using to catfish. Why is that even possible? It's truly mind boggling how broken these systems are. Even if you pay to be verified on them, which I now do because I have no other choice.

    Did you file a report here: https://www.ic3.gov/

    I've seen this listed on other posts so I'm not sure how they could help, but it might be something.
