TULSA - Online dating can be like fishing in muddy water and one group of women think they all caught the same fish.
But does the mystery man even exist?
Sunny Leigh's got the personality and she's obviously got the beauty. She spends most mornings in the KVOO studio as a popular radio host.
For the past year, she said she's found herself wrapped up in an online relationship that began on Facebook. She said it's sob story she said any woman would believe.
"He said his wife had passed away from breast cancer and he was raising three small children by himself and just seemed really sweet and real," Sunny said.
Nathan Miller claimed he couldn't talk to Leigh on the phone due to an apparent stutter, but after months the person sent her an audio recording. Leigh analyzed the audio at the radio station and believed it could be a woman.
"Oh my gosh this could have been the person I've been talking to all along?" she said.
Sunny blocked the person on Facebook, but she said they would make a different account with an even more elaborate story. Three weeks ago, a woman messaged Sunny on Facebook saying she saw her on a dating website in Virginia.
"She said he's been distributing your picture saying you're his ex-girlfriend and the story went crazy that I had kidnapped his child and that we were star crossed lovers that had been separated over time," the KVOO radio host said.
Now, 13 women have joined the Facebook group, Finding Nathan Miller.
"He or she has insight to our addresses, to multiple photos, photos of us, our kids, of our homes, our environment, our friends," victim Tracey Harris said. "So that part is a little bit scary. It's really tough for me to understand that people have this much time on their hands and like to take advantage of normal, nice, giving women."
They're not looking for love any longer, now they just want answers.
"Apparently no, we were not special," Leigh said. "We were just suckers, unfortunately."
Leigh says she Googled the various pictures the stranger sent her. Through a reverse online image search, she was able to link them to a woman's Instagram in Austin, Texas. The woman told her it was her husband's identity this impersonator was using.
