I know everyone does it, anything bad/embarassing/not you show up from time to time?

My sister recently googled her name and the first thing that pops up is a post on some BLOG in england from someone with the exact same name/bbs screen name detailing how she is NOT sorry for sleeping with your husband.

My sister was all like  :surprised: :runaway: :runaway: :surprised:

PAGING TRIM!

So I suggested to my sister that we troll this "snow Horton" woman....looks like she is a step ahead of me!

Quote
All the time I invested in watching Catfish is finally paying off!

A google image search of the "Snow Horton" profile pic led me to this Pinterest profile under the name of "Renee Fallon"[pinterest.com]  The same lady, it appears, has a Facebook page under the name "Renee Fallon"[facebook.com] as well as her page as a real estate agent in New York.

I am doubting that this Renee Fallon has a second Facebook page also using a picture of herself.  With a name like "Snow" I am not surprised that the account is fake and she stole Renee's picture.  So the question is, who is Snow Horton?  Based on my knowledge from Catfish, I am guessing that Snow Horton knows Renee Fallon IRL or follows her on Pinterest or FB. 

Possible next moves:
- Contact Renee Fallon and ask if she knows "Snow Horton" is using her pic on her FB page 
- From Snow's FB:  see if she has any other pics, who her friends are, where she lives, etc. I am blocked so I can't do this part.  In Catfish they look for people who have posted on their wall or otherwise seem to know them well and then contact that person and ask questions about Snow's actual physical appearance/existence. 
- Go through Renee Fallon's FB friends, followers and Pinterest followers - looking for someone fat/ugly/no picture that would want to steal Renee's pic

End Game:
- Find out who Snow really is and
1) meme the bitch:  http://fuckmygeneration.com/[fuckmygeneration.com]
2) troll the bitch
- Get an article published about my excruciating experience to clear my name so then when someone googles me the article comes up, too, and not just crap about sleeping with someone's husband.
