"However, he is not single nor named Fernando. Camila falls into a trap and everything becomes a nightmare. Willing to do anything to find out who the man she met really is, the young woman desperately seeks the cheater's real identity and makes him pay one by one for each lie he told her and each promise he made.

The cast of Fake Profile consists of Carolina Miranda as Camila Román, Victor Mallarino as Pedro, Lincoln Palomeque as Juan David and Manuela González as Ángela.
