Another pile of crap…
On Instagram, Guillaume Pineault didn’t mince words. In a sharply worded story, the comedian recently called out someone using his image to his detriment.
Guillaume Pineault on Tinder? Maybe… but certainly not as “Dom”
Apparently, a certain Dom is wreaking havoc on the dating app Tinder… except that this Dom doesn’t exist, though not with that face! The person behind the account allegedly simply “borrowed” Guillaume Pineault’s photos to create a fake profile. And to top it all off, they added completely invented details, because if you’re going to impersonate someone, you might as well do it with conviction!
“Dom” didn’t pick the right face…
“DOM 42… (Another pile of crap who’s taking my photos.) Gym often, cat person, text addict (you’re really getting to know me there). High school… crap, I spent so much time in university… riding that, my DOM,” sighs Guillaume, clearly at the end of his rope in the face of so much imagination… poorly used!
“Dom” in your messages? It’s not a match, it’s a full-blown investigation!
So, a friendly reminder: if a Dom with that familiar smile slides into your Tinder DMs, it isn’t Guillaume Pineault (unless he’s living a secret double life!). And we bet the comedian wouldn’t mind you giving a little push by reporting the fake profile!
Moreover, if Dom sends you a joke… check it—it’s probably coming from Guillaume Pineault as well!
The faces of celebrities: the new playground for internet users
Maybe Guillaume can take some solace in the fact that at least his photos are circulating on Tinder just as, not in overly “creative” montages, and let’s be honest, rarely flattering. The same can’t be said for François Lambert, who has, against his will, become a genuine muse for the AI video generator Sora!

Another kind of impersonation
To better understand the plague of identity theft, we highly recommend the documentary Marie against Goliath, hosted by Marie-Claude Barrette. In the series, the host takes on this growing and worrying phenomenon. She also reveals how she herself fell victim to misleading advertising that used her image to misrepresent her as a cryptocurrency promoter. Several other personalities share their own experiences as well, often just as troubling.
Have you ever found yourself having your identity stolen?
