In April of 2022, 32 y/o Nathaniel Huey got an odd message on facebook from a blank account. This message told Nathaniel that they were a group of high-profile criminals and hackers and was reaching out to him because they believe his life is in danger. At first Nathaniel ignored the messages thinking it was spam, until overtime they became more cryptic saying things like “he's watching you” and “I watched your wife as she slept last night through the window, she sleeps up against the wall right?” These texts would come from multiple accounts and numbers for the next year and a half. He lived in constant paranoia of his life, and he didn't want to tell his fiance Ermelinda because he was afraid she would go to the police so he kept it a secret until September 2023. When Nathaniel gets a text saying that they believe his co-worker Zaridah Bolome, a woman he was currently having an affair with, has a hit out on Nathaniel and everyone he loves. And the only way to stop the hit, is to kill Zaridah and her family of 3. But what Nathaniel didn't know was that this group of elites were actually all run by one person, a person who convinced Nathaniel to murder an entire family. And why would this person catfish him for a year and a half claiming to be high profile criminals and hackers? All for Nathaniel's love and affection. Learn more about your ad choices.
