Assi’stestimony became so popular that it became the subject of a Netflix documentary, which made its debut last Wednesday (October 1&). However, with the increased attention came both recognition and criticism.
“She seems desperate. Ten years!? I can’t believe she fell for something like this,“one viewer said.
“I’m not stupid. I’m not dumb.I’mthe one who chose to speak up,“Assi said in an interview with theBBC, addressing those who were calling her gullible.

“I’mthe one that’s put herself in the firing line, and I hope others will come forward,“she added, hoping thather storywould bring light to the issue and help those suffering in silence.
While talking to theBBC, Assi explained that she doesn’t know or understand why her cousin decided to deceive her for so many years
“The extent to which that person went, you can’t ever justify it,“she said. “I can’t understand why she didn’t stop or why she felt pleasure from hearing somebody in pain.”
The outlandish nature of the catfish’s stories was one of the main reasons Assi was mocked online, a fact that she acknowledged.
Unable to keep thefacadefor longer, Simran confessed the truth on June 11, 2018, with Assi “vomiting“and “passing out“upon receiving the news.
“She has taken ten years of my life from me, years I will not get back.“
