In real life people can be fake of course. But at least you have the advantage of seeing them observing them in real life in real time. On internet people can be entirely fake. Someone who comes off as a gorgeous young hot babe could be 73 and weigh 300 lbs with warts on her face. Or she could be a he. How would you know? How do you assess people merely by words which can all be lies? SIGH. Another wrinkle.
