Catfish: Ashley Greene/Ashley Khoury

Name(s): Ashley Greene, Michelle Greene, Ashley Khoury

NOTE: This subject is a stolen identity.

Ashley Michele Greene Khoury is an American film actor, notable for co-starring in the Twilight film saga between 2008 and 2012. She has been presented as being one of the best friend and managerial client of the Shonna Paige/Scheglova persona, as well as a close friend of Lisbeth Olofsson/Elofsson, and a rival of Kristen Stewart. The perpetrator behind these personas began discussing over social media his alleged friendship with Greene between 2014 & 2015, before a social media presence bearing the name “Michelle Greene” appeared in March 2017. Via predominantly Facebook messaging & phone texts, a smear & disinformation campaign against the perpetrator’s social circle was ushered by the Greene persona, largely targeting actors & producers.

In 2017 alone, at least one undisclosed film production was disrupted by the Greene persona, followed by Greene appearing in the credits of Timothy Hines’ miniseries, Chrome. Near the end of that year, the Greene persona informed others that Kristen Stewart assaulted her, with bruises to show for it. Beginning in 2018, the several personas alleged that Greene’s marriage with Paul Khoury was jeopardized, due to the latter’s distrust over her close relationship with the perpetrator. The perpetrator posted an image of himself and a woman on social media, claiming she was Greene. The Ashley Khoury persona was last seen in 2020.

Upon conferring with Greene’s representation at the Gersh Agency, we confirmed that she indeed was never involved with Timothy Hines’ Chrome: The Series; the showrunner was misled by the perpetrator into believing she was accompanying him incognito on-set. There is no evidence of a feud between Greene & Stewart, let alone an assault. Furthermore, we could not confirm that the woman in the perpetrator’s photograph was indeed Greene. Therefore, we conclude that the Ashley Greene/Ashley Khoury persona is another case of a stolen identity.

Catfish: Jane Levy

Name(s): Jane Levy

NOTE: This subject is a stolen identity.

Jane Colburn Levy is an American film actor, notable for her collaborations with director Fede Álvarez. Following the release of Evil Dead in 2013, Facebook profiles bearing Levy’s name and likeness were created, tightly connected with the circle of catfish personas, namely Lisbeth Olofsson/Elofsson & Shonna Paige/Scheglova. The Levy persona was deactivated for three years, after which she reemerged and engaged substantially with nonfictional peers connected with the fictional circle of friends, appearing as both a confidante & adversary to Kristen Stewart. Between her emergence in July 2016 and profile deactivation in September 2018, the Levy persona was utilized heavily for disruptive purposes, including smear campaigns, harassment and the loss of business. Using Levy’s identity, the perpetrator consented to be in productions, only to sabotage them by being absent.

Facets of our investigation have led us to conclude that the Jane Levy persona as presented on Facebook was nothing more than impersonation & identity theft – both felonies in the State of Washington, where the perpetrator resides. The Levy connection’s alleged history with the perpetrator changes, with one version being that she was introduced to him via their mutual friend Lou Taylor-Pucci, while another is that he was introduced by his former spouse, Jessica Biel – who cannot be verified as a romantic partner, aside from self-edits made to wiki pages in the mid-2000s. Apart from the Facebook profiles opened, the perpetrator also purchased a burner phone with an 818 (San Fernando Valley) number that he reportedly used for several stints over nearly two years, despite telling different victims that it was brand new. Aside from the portrait from Levy’s childhood, (that the perpetrator gave a shoutout to with his own schoolboy image), the profile pictures utilized by the Levy persona are screenshots from her stories.

Catfish: Kristen Stewart/Towlee Stewart

Name(s): Kristen Stewart, Kris Stewart, Towlee Stewart, KS, KJS

YouTube

NOTE: This subject is a stolen identity.

Kristen Jaymes Stewart is a prominent film actor, known for starring in the Twilight film series. She reportedly began appearing on Facebook in February 2017, interacting publicly with Lisbeth Olofsson/Elofsson & Shonna Paige/Scheglova, as their peer from a social circle shared with her closest friend, CJ Romero, and her spouse at the time, Stella Maxwell. Many profiles, commonly going by "Towlee Stewart", were opened and forcibly closed until May 2020, due to celebrity impersonation reports. Photos, videos, and posts positively referenced this purported friends circle, while besmirching Washington State actors & filmmakers, as well as a circle of private residents unaffiliated with the industry.

The authenticity of the Stewart persona was further bolstered by a social media presence on platforms like LinkedIn & YouTube, as well as phone calls, voice mail, and text messages. People connected with this persona received autographed memorabilia.

The initial image, taken at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, utilized to represent the Stewart catfish profile.

The perpetrator who created the Lisbeth Olofsson/Elofsson, Shonna Paige/Scheglova, and Renee Vivas personas utilized Stewart's likeness and influence to devastating effect. Amassing a following of filmmakers & fans, the Stewart persona shared details regarding a false relationship with the perpetrator - that he was her former assistant, alongside Romero, and that Olofsson/Elofsson & Paige/Scheglova were her friends from Twilight's production. This individual supplemented his purported relationship with Stewart with custom-made media, such as a video of him dancing in a hoodie with her face printed on it, as well as a selfie of him covered in makeup - allegedly by Stewart's hand, while he was passed out at her Los Angeles residence. He further claimed to have been employed by the Gersh Agency, which represented Stewart at the time.

The Stewart persona also targeted the perpetrator's professional & personal peers from his upbringing. The persona accused filmmakers & actors the perpetrator was connected with of exploiting their relationship with him, as well as stalking her, stealing her private pictures via hacking, sabotaging film deals & her relationship with Gersh, and attempting to coerce letters of intent (LOIs). The perpetrator's personal friends were accused by this persona of being: closeted homosexuals, child molesters, rapists, and murderers. The persona attempted to convince victims that their lives & careers were ruined, and that suicide would be the ideal outcome.

Having previously identified the Stewart persona's entire social circle as being inauthentic or unaware of their names being used, we concluded that this is a case of a stolen identity. We took the liberty to ask Romero about the perpetrator.

CJ Romero denies knowing the (redacted) perpetrator.

We surmise that the perpetrator was assisted by an unidentified woman who impersonated Stewart through phone calls.

Catfish: Kool Luke

Name(s): Kool Luke

TheForce.net Profile

Strictly a moniker and not a legal name, "Kool Luke" first appeared between 2013 & 2014. Purported to be an accomplished film actor, Kool Luke hailed from Sydney, Australia and almost exclusively kept his online interactions to Facebook reactions. In June 2014, he was registered on TheForce.net, to reference Lisbeth Olofsson as an "intern" for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, in a conversation about a purported leak. Since then, the web boards profile was not utilized again.

Kool Luke is a catfish, with his likeness stolen from Australian actor Luke Mitchell. He was created and operated by the perpetrator behind Lisbeth Olofsson/Lisbeth Elofsson, Shonna Paige/Shonna Anika Scheglova, Renee Vivas/Jade Renee, and Zera Minagi/Minagi Santos. Kool Luke profile did not directly engage in smear campaigns, instead used for bolstering the perpetrator's credentials. The persona was abandoned and deactivated in early 2017.

Catfish: Zera Minagi/Minagi Santos

Name(s): Zera Minagi, Minagi Santos

Facebook (DEACTIVATED)

NOTE: This subject is a stolen identity, unlike the previous subjects that have been catfish.

The mononymous Minagi is a guitar player, born in Osaka, Japan on June 19th, who currently is a member of the band Zera. He began his professional career in December 2014, with the band Jemini, which signed with Livqueuer Records and was in operation until disbandment in October 2015. Minagi next emerged in February 2018, as a member of Menwa Koshi ga Inochi, which rebranded as Zera in October 2019 - signed under the Kalmian Records Label of Planet Child Music.

Minagi's identity has largely been stolen and re-purposed in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Minagi is presented as originating from Seattle, Washington, having moved to Osaka later. The persona claims relation with the catfish persona Renee J Vivas and Kanta of Deviloof. The false persona also claims to be signed with Epic Records, though this is inherently false. There is no evidence in any birth record or tour schedule that Minagi or his affiliated bands have ever travelled to the United States.

Minagi posts on Twitter, celebrating his ongoing recovery from an eye injury.

Minagi's impersonator embellishes upon the relationship with the fictional Renee J Vivas.

Catfish: Renee Vivas/Jade Renee

Name(s): Renee J Vivas, Renee Jade, Jade Renee

Facebook (DEACTIVATED)

Renee Vivas (Jade Renee) is a relatively newer persona, having first publicly emerged in 2018. She is presented as a translator and interpreter for the Tokyo Disney Resort. Her background is that she is the daughter of stuntman Rey-Phillip Santos and a former United States Marine who attended Gonzaga University, currently residing in Japan. According to her posts, she was arrested. It is unclear what her purported age is. The Vivas profile has been utilized for excessive disruption, including smear campaigns.

A behind-the-scenes still image from the 2012 short film "Private War". This was cannibalized as being representative of the Vivas persona serving in the United States Marine Corps.

The source material for Vivas has almost comprehensively been stolen from the professional and personal materials of 36-year-old American actor Jessica Jade Andres. The photos depicting Vivas' history with the United States Marine Corps are production stills from a short film called Private War, released in 2012. The photograph depicting Vivas' arrest is a cropped group picture, featuring Andres and her friends. Many of Vivas' mundane activities, such as from Zoom calls, are Andres' audition tapes.

The victim uploaded an audition tape for the role of Rachel in "Flying Cars", in 2016.

The perpetrator cut out a portion of Andres' audition tape, removed the audio, changed the frame rate, and adjusted the lighting, before uploading it with the context of it being a Zoom call.

Catfish: Shonna Paige/Scheglova

Name(s): Shonna Paige, Shonna Anika Scheglova, Shonna Scheglova

Facebook (DEACTIVATED)

An older persona, Shonna Paige/Scheglova first emerged in 2008 - allegedly as a close friend and confidant of American actors Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene. She is alleged to be 44-years-old and attended high school in Washington alongside Greene, who is her closest friend. While on the set of Twilight, she became close with Stewart. In 2018, Paige's Facebook page was given a complete makeover, to read "Shonna Anika Scheglova", with a whole host of Crip Walk pictures and videos. She publicly identified her hometown as being Sochi, Russia. The Paige/Scheglova persona is utilized extensively for networking and harassment.

An older picture from 2010, featuring Kristen Stewart and her friends meeting Rob Zombie. Paige/Scheglova is falsely presented as being Scout Taylor-Compton, in the top hat.

You likely correctly surmised that Shonna Paige/Sheglova is fictional. Greene did not only attend high school exclusively in Florida, but is an entire decade younger. The previous victim was American actor Scout Taylor-Compton. However, the primary woman is a 33-year-old Russian entrepreneur & Crip Walk dancer residing in Warsaw, Poland named Anika Scheglova. Her photos and videos have been extensively stolen by the perpetrator, with identities, dates and locations altered.

Name(s): Lisbeth Olofsson, Lisbeth Elofsson, Lisbeth Olofsson Gordy

IMDb - REMOVED

Lisbeth Olofsson profile preview, featuring stolen multimedia.

Our first catch of the day. Lisbeth Olofsson is presented as being the 40-year-old daughter or niece of Swedish actor Dolph Lundgren, born out of wedlock. This persona claims to be from Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, with a high school upbringing in Silverdale, Washington and her alma mater being Olympia College & Malmö University. Her LinkedIn profile listed her profession as being an archaeologist and curator at the Swedish Museum of Science and Technology. Since the Lisbeth Olofsson profile emerged in 2013, this individual has claimed credits that include cameoing as Lundgren's character's daughter in The Expendables 3, being attached to the Luna Project and as Kara Zor-El in the Arrowverse; a production secretary on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Labyrint, Wallander and Lucy. As of this juncture, the Olofsson Facebook profile has over 3,200 followers and is utilized for networking and smear campaigns.

Images of Alana Cragin (left) & Rafaela Pesci (right), stolen to represent Olofsson.

Olofsson does not exist. None of the aforementioned productions ever had someone with such a name involved. Evidence claiming to show a connection between Olofsson and Lundgren has been manufactured, through the use of stolen pictures and videos, with the sources generally being marketing and paparazzi materials. The likeness of several women have been stolen over the years, with the initial main source being American former model Alana Cragin, with supplementary material from Brazilian former bodybuilder Rafaela Pesci. The primary source since 2016 is a 27-year-old Nutritional and Nutraceutical Sciences graduate of Guelph University named Sara Pindera. Since the creation of the Olofsson profile, Pindera has been extensively preyed upon, with dozens of pictures and videos of she and her friends & family stolen and re-published for building the false identity. Content is generally stolen and re-posted within a week of its original upload.

The victim shares a graduation picture from Guelph University in 2016.

The perpetrator applies a minor adjustment and claims it is from Olympia College in the early 2000s.
