On Twitter, @azusagakuyuki has a following of over 20,000 and regularly shared photographs that show 'her' with motorbikes. "I love messing around with bikes," she tweeted. The imposter, who had a fake account with photograph of woman on Twitter, was enjoying the attention of his fans on the micro-blogging site.
Once the photo with reflection went viral, Japanese media outlets tried digging out information about the bike enthusiast. And finally the crew of a Japanese variety show managed to crack the puzzle and the biker.
After the crew reached the biker and confronted, it was revealed that 'she' was actually a 50-year-old man. Later several users started picking up on signs such as the woman having a young face, but a less young-looking arm at 'her' side raising doubts about her appearance.
As per the Yahoo News, the man reportedly said he changed his appearance as nobody would like to watch an 'uncle' on social media. Initially he posted a picture of himself as a woman on social media that helped him to gain over 1,000 followers with it. He then decided to continue the deception because he enjoyed feeling like an online celebrity.
The man had used FaceApp to work on his appearances and attract users. The popular mobile application has a gender swap filter which allows users to change their look.
