Hi, I’m a 21F. I didn’t know where else to post this, posted this on a few advice subs but got 0 replies.

So basically some nameless faceless fake account sent hate / weird messages to 2-3 people in my college. My ex best friend, who I haven’t spoken to in months, reached out to me and she was kinda passive aggressive about everything. She was talking as if she believes there is a chance that I’m the one behind the fake account but made it seem like she cares about me and wants to check up on me to see if I’m going though anything. She has 0 proofs or 0 evidence that it’s me – apparently a part of the message was about this girl (let’s call her Amisha) who I met a few times in my building but stopped talking to because I transferred her some money when she was in need but she never paid me back despite me asking her for 2-3 weeks in a row. She also got me drunk and left me at a party without checking up on me so I decided to not talk to her ever again after that. We never had any argument or anything, I just unfollowed her and deleted her number. It’s been over a month since we talked. I told 2 people to not talk to her after what happened to me but that’s it. One of them happens to know my ex best friend and told her that I warned her about Amisha so now they think since I’m not friends with this girl anymore, I’m sending hate.

I was asking my ex best friend about what exactly the hate was but she never really gave me a clear answer. She didn’t even tell me who exactly even received the hate, she just said “2-3 people I know.” She kept on going in spirals and she was like nobody else knows but since she was my best friend for so long she knows my “writing style” and the way “I talk” so she thinks it’s me. That is her only evidence – she “feels.” She convinced those people that received the messages that it’s me behind the account because she “thinks” and “feels” it’s me. Random people from college began to stalk my account on Instagram and it’s just making me feel so so conscious to go to college despite me not doing anything. I’m diagnosed with anxiety (which she knows) and all these is just too much for me.

The good thing is that after texting back and forth for a while she finally at least revealed the name of the fake account. I was so shocked because the same account sent me hate months back around the first week of Jan. I told her “listen I’m glad that you think we were so close that you can distinguish my texts from everyone else’s but that’s not me. I don’t know if you’ll even believe this but the same account sent me hate last month. I can send you screenshots of the hate they sent me with dates & time stamps, I can also send you screenshots of the conversations I had with my friends regarding the hate I got with dates and times, I blocked the account. I should be next level crazy to create a fake account, send myself hate, feel bad over it, take screenshots of that and send to my friends, make them console me. Why would I do that to myself? Also these are my friends I’ve known for 10+ years so I cannot BS my way with them, they know who I am. I suffered from bullying myself so I’ll never ever be an online bully cos I know the implications of mental health. Adding to that, I’ve never met your friends so I can only wonder what hate I can send to someone I know nothing about. Again, I’m ready to send the screenshots. Let me know and they’ll be yours.”

It’s been over 24 hours now and she hasn’t responded. I have all the proofs. I don’t know why she stopped responding after I said I’ll send her evidence to prove it’s not me when she was trying so hard to make a point that it is me because she “feels” it. But I feel I’m in the clear now? Never have I been glad that I got hate in my life. I genuinely cannot believe the kind of mess that I find myself in. These past few days have given me so much pain.

What do I do now? Any advice is appreciated.

TLDR: A few girls are trying to claim that i created a fake account to send people hate this week. They have 0 evidence or proof that it’s me. I myself received hate from the fake account last month itself and told them that why would I send myself hate if it is indeed my account, I said I’ll show them screenshots of the hate I received with the date & time, screenshots of conversations I had with my friends regarding the hate I got last month and now they stopped replying me. Idk what to do about this whole situation.
