Instagram Catfishers and such

I suspect an Instagram "bondage account" I have interacted with many times over the years is actually a fake. There are many I suspect aren't what they claim to be, but I want to let others confirm my suspicions.

To be clear: This thread is specifically for INSTAGRAM only.

One I know was a fake but is shut down:
axelsmarta

One I suspect is fake:
boundgagged6

Can't speak for these but I know there are plenty of accounts on other platforms (FetLife, Recon, etc) that appropriate other people's photos/videos and claim they're their own. Sometimes, they steal my pics and on more than one occasion I've had conversations about what it felt like being tied up that way - they'll go into detail on when it happened and how it felt - before telling them it's me in the photo.

A strange form of wish-fulfilment cosplay.

Yeah, it's really weird. That's kind of what happened with the axelsmarta account. The person was really friendly and talkative but a bit private. After some time, I got contacted by an account from one of the people whose photos had been stolen.

This one account I am currently questioning sent me a photo of a girl tied up, and I am 99% certain that it's just a more obscure and less-easily found photo of Ashley Lane tied up.

Correct me if I am wrong, but this appears to be Ashley Lane. It could be another model, but this does appear to be a model to me.

To follow up, this is not Ashley Lane. It's model Kenna James. But as I suspected this was indeed another catfisher, and I'm surprised there isn't more discussion here concerning the way Instagram is a haven for stolen materials.
