Official statement about Nightwish poser

Some of you might think now: poser not poser who cares..Well the ppl which get involved in a poser`s game do for sure! So here are some tipps and tricks:

There`s one important rule we need to mention first:

Do not give out your phone number, full name, address, bank details, passwords, or any other personal information to anyone online who you don’t know in person.

Most of the poser`s out there are quite harmless. They like fooling ppl but that`s it. But there another kind of poser`s which obviously mental sick! The game of these poser`s can become really worse.

Here's the deal with posers. There are three different types out there.

1) Immature people

2) Drama starters

3) People of malicious intent

Let's break this down one by one.

1) Immature People: These are your posers who range from the ages 13 - 18. Most of these are completely harmless. These posers don't last long and tend to get caught faster than they can create themselves. They're doing is out of sheer boredom and have no lives outside their computers. They're doing it for fun, basically, and are stupid enough to believe that they'd never get in trouble for it.

2) Drama starters: These people range about 18 - 25. They're the ones who usually have some sort of beef with either the celebrity themselves or the person they chose as a victim. Most of these posers don't have any evil intentions, they're doing it to cause drama. People like this get some amount of enjoyment out of tormenting people. These are the kind of people who would laugh at kicking a puppy, basically. ....

3) Malicious People: These are the WORST kinds of posers out there. These posers are very rare, but they pop up because the person is either A) mentally unstable or B) have a reason to want to ruin the reputation of the celebrity they're posing as. Most of these posers will travel in packs. They have several people operating under one celebrity with one person in charge of the whole thing. These people want nothing more than to ruin the celebrity's life, basically. A lot of times they'll go as far as picking apart their fan base since that's the core element to any celebrity's success. They stop at nothing to reach their goal and they have zero conscious. These types of posers are basically stalkers. They will go out of their way to find out every little bitty piece of information on the celebrity and use it to their advantage. A lot of times they'll take the truth and embellish to make the celebrity seem a thousand times worse than they really are. These people spend their lives to this type of posing. Most of them work from home, if they work at all. There's little to be explained to why they do things like this except for the fact that they're just evil.

When you're dealing with a poser of any kind...there are ten things that ALWAYS apply to any poser. Check these things out and if your poser falls under any of the following, you have reason to be skeptical:

1) Most the poser's profile is set to private and publically announces who they are.

2) They go out of their way to prove they are real.

3) Becomes defensive over the smallest things, trying to guilt trip you into believing they are legit.

4) They never seem to have pictures that no one's seen before.

5) Never have information before an event happens.

6) Continuously goes on and on about themselves as a way to make you believe they are real.

7) They never seem to have a web cam or the web cam suddenly isn't working when asked to use it.

8) Sends you texts messages rather than calling you on the phone.

9) When caught in a lie, they have an outrageous excuse for why it happened.

10) If they don't have an answer to a question, they'll answer it in a form of a question just to keep you guessing.....

All posers are different but here are some things to consider if you think you might be involved with a poser:

1. They have a lot of drama in their life and they make you believe that you are the only one who can “fix” it.

2. They are extremely clingy.

3. They use things you’ve said against you in their lies. For example, one day you say that you are afraid of spiders, the next day they tell a story about how they found a huge spider in their house and give you all kinds of details about it.

4. They put you on a pedestal showering you with I love yous, gifts, poems, and songs. They are a girl’s “dream guy” because a lot of times it will be a woman posing as a man. They are extremely romantic, which makes you even more vulnerable because you start falling for the person. What girl doesn’t love romance and suddenly you meet someone who knows how to pull it off better than any guy you’ve ever met.

5. They cannot offer solid proof as to who they are behind the screen. They might call you, but the voice will be disguised. They might email official documents, but they will be fake. This happened to me. Any pictures that are sent will be photo shopped.

Basically, if anyone who you are talking to online cannot get onto a web cam in “real time,” they may or may not be who they say they are. That’s why it’s so important to keep your guard up at all times. You have to be just as careful online as you would be with strangers in person.


Don’t be subjected to the mind of the poser. They get a thrill out of getting you to believe they are someone they aren’t. They have all of the control in the situation and you have none. Take back your life by not believing in someone who always has an excuse for not visiting, calling, or being on a web cam.....
