A Pennsylvania teen cheerleader who became the target of "deep fake" videos and images last summer by a rival’s mother who wanted her off the team, said Monday she thought no one would believe her if she spoke out. "I went in the car and started crying, and was like, ‘That’s not me in the video,’" Hime, now 17, told "Good Morning America" on Monday. "I thought if I said it, no one would believe me because obviously, there’s proof, there’s a video – but obviously that video was manipulated." Hime told the outlet that someone posing as a concerned parent sent her messages. Police traced the phone numbers back to a website specializing in selling phone numbers to telemarketers.
