A guy pretending to be Rock Jokubaitis

“Be careful. This story happened to my friend and she asked her to share it in this group so that all of you would be attentive and vigilant, receiving a Tinder message from a boy posing as Rokas Jokubaitis from Žalgiris on social media And here seriously. The story is this. My friend on the Tinder app contacted a guy who introduced himself by the name of Rokas Jokubaitis, but he didn’t say anything to my friend because she wasn’t interested in basketball at all Of course, after such an introduction, he found Rokas Jokubaitis on Google, did his homework. The vigilant girlfriend knew that everything that boy said could be a lie. But, a classic, he offered to meet with her to demonstrate that it was indeed Rokas Jokubaitis and that they could continue to communicate calmly.

He approached her with the last “Arteon” marked with the “Žalgiris” emblems, he was wearing “Žalgiris” clothing (sponsors’ mark everywhere, Rokas Jokubaitis surname, number, orally, everything). And, trust me, well, it’s brutally similar to Jokubaitis. And that’s where it all started.

The boy used to go to my friend’s Vilnius every day (in the morning he goes to “train” in Kaunas, then he returns to Vilnius to my friend’s house, and at night – again to train). He constantly sent her videos from the Žalgiris Arena, sending her videos as he accompanied the team to the plane (literally, following Žalgiris’ bus with his car). Met with different “Žalgiris” trainings, sweaters, jackets at each meeting; everything is marked with posters of sponsors, Rokas Jokubaitis and their number. He had a car, suitcases, sports bags with all these brands.

Throughout it, he would always tell her to watch the competition and then call her to discuss it: “Did you see how I …?”, “And did you notice that?” And he shared all kinds of secrets about what the team is talking about inside. Oh, and they were still sending videos from the Radisson Hotel, where the entire “Žalgiris” team stayed before the competition. When they go out for a walk, some people (as he called them friends) definitely come up to them and say, “Hi Rokai, how are you?” They bought a computer together, which he bought on behalf of Rokas Jokubaitis. Together with my friend, they went to the gym to go to the gym; they approached him there again on behalf of Rokas Jokubaitis. In a word, the guy had thought so much about every detail that he didn’t even cut off his head. The saddest thing is that while they communicated like this for two months, he wove another story. He and his agent allegedly made some mistakes while completing the STI statement, which led to the blocking of his bank card.

This means that he asked for money (obviously in cash, because the card was “blocked”). Saying he’s Rokas Jokubaitis, could he cheat? Today he owes him almost 10,000. euros. The culmination. Yesterday he left his phone at my friend’s apartment. And you know what girls do who are left alone with their boyfriends’ phones … On that phone, he found the truth, in short, he saw who that guy really was (correspondence, photos, identification photos, etc.). Clearly, she kept her mind cool, although she already realized that she had been fooled, to put it mildly, but she tried to ask, explain, give her a chance to tell the truth. He said, “Tell me who you are, I won’t tell anyone.”

But he told her: “I am Rokas Jokubaitis, if you go to four psychotherapy sessions, you can come back with me.” And that is. It happened yesterday. Today my friend is writing a report and I hope that everything ends well and that with as much disgust as he is, he gets what he deserves.

Girls, if you are a victim of this person, write to me, I will refer you to my friend whose story I described. Keep this story in mind, tell a friend. Don’t be fooled and be vigilant. We take care of ourselves and protect ourselves, ”wrote one of the Facebook groups.
