In a school setting, catfishing refers to online impersonation, where someone creates a fake online profile to deceive and lure another person (often a student) into a relationship or a trap. It is a form of online deception, and it can have serious consequences for both the victim and the perpetrator. Students should be careful when engaging with people they meet online, especially if they don't know them in person. It is always better to stay safe and avoid sharing personal information with strangers.
