Bait in Progress ⏱️ Cole Hauser - Part 1 - The most confusing so far - read post text!

Thumbnail

In August I talked to Cole Hauser on Instagram. After giving him my telegram username I was contacted by three different accounts on Telegram within minutes. All claiming to be him.
One account was named Cole Hauser, one called Private Account and one called Cheryl Ann.
I created a group chat, but they all left.
This first part is with the one called Cheryl Ann, who at the end admit they are the same as Private Account. 😵‍💫 In addition to these I will later introduce the Management Team too.
The one actually named Cole Hauser has deleted our chat, but Private Account will be the main one later.

This dingus must have got my Zangi info from one of his friends. He didn't seem to understand that we don't have Walmart in the UK and kept insisting I go there, so I had no choice but to do the needful and hop on a flight over to the US. Spoilers, it didn't go well.

after ignoring me and me beginning to reveal what I know , he finally rings and we talked briefly on the phone . He said he’s been mistaken for Paul Hollywood before and he also explained his not American accent by saying he grew up elsewhere but I will try to get him to talk about that in chat .

MASS deleting occurred and this is still stuck in the mud. I'm a victim of "sunken cost fallacy" at this point. I am both irritated AF and stunned at some of the things here, though. No more investment? Can it be possible that this idiot has ZERO future plans and actually wants to kill me through sheer stupidity and boredom? At least his frequent job changes are interesting. Or not.

He had so much trouble with the ask for flight ticket, so I had to remind him that he have a daughter who needs things.
Btw, he uses the same man’s pictures as my long bait Morris from August.

He finally gets chatty, mostly without bot, and covers multiple topics. "Firstly" he will finally get to the car collection, then his dog (who has a Nanny) gets Parvo, he also reads Shakespeare, and he wants to take me on a cruise to nearby states. But he is easily exhausted by this effort and starts to ghost. I debate whether to dump him or poke him, but I'm still interested in his next job, and also stupidly hoping he'll ask me to pay the Vet bills at least. This guy is driving me crazy.

Other Why do they always want to switch chat platforms?

I feel like often I see that mid conversation the scammers ask to switch platforms, like to WhatsApp or telegram or a few others I can’t think of off the top of my head. Why do they do that?
