'I was booted off dating app because jealous weirdos were pretending to be me to bag men'

A glamorous mum from Greater Manchester claims she has been kicked off Tinder as 'jealous weirdos' keep stealing her pictures in a bid to 'catfish'' men.

Carly Johnson, 40, from Stockport, says she's been bombared with messages from mystery men and women who say they've been flirting with her on Tinder, Bumble and Badoo.

When in fact she's been alerted to around 20 profiles using images she's posted on social media. Some are using her name, age and location whilst others are using completely different names and ages, some claiming to be over 10 years younger.
