Can I get a slow clap for Rosie Okumura? Rosie is my new spirit animal.

Rosie, one half of the LA-based synth pop duo MODERNS, got catfished this week and she handled the online troll in the most epic way.

For the uninitiated, ‘Catfishing’ according to Wikipedia is ” a type of deceptive activity involving a person creating a sock puppet social networking presence for nefarious purposes”. Catfishing is becoming more and more prevalent and is commonly used for the purposes of creating a romantic relationship with someone you have never met who then turns out not to be who you thought. Which, I personally find a bit weird – call me old-fashioned that way.

In this case, 'Owen Wilson - a famous American actor' reached out to Okumura on Friday asking her to keep $60 million for him to hide from his wife. Her compensation would be $3 million. Lucky her! Sounds pretty legit to me.

All Rosie needed to do was send $3900 via Walmart money transfer to some mysterious woman in Kentucky who was apparently 'FBI personnel' investigating Owen Wilson's supposed soon to be ex-wife's emails. Again, this seems pretty above board.

Unfortunately for 'Owen', Rosie took it upon herself to have some fun at his expense and the results are a masterclass in trolling the trolls.

Rosie detailed her hilarious exchange with 'Owen' in a private Facebook group for women over the weekend. Thousands of women sat glued to their phones as the plot developed, with many even offering to 'donate' $3.90 to send to the shady woman in Kentucky to see what happened.

Rosie relied on girl-power to help her with a plot twist – she claimed to have donated $100k to Hurricane relief in Owen Wilson's name and needed her face photoshopped into a pic of someone donating a giant check to Donald Trump.
