Who Is Patty Mayo and Is He A Real Bounty Hunter?

Patty Mayo is an American model, entrepreneur, and social media personality best known for his bounty-hunting videos, where he is often seen arresting criminals. His videos also feature challenges, pranks, and funny conversations. Despite his prominent social media profile as a bounty hunter, Patty Mayo is not a real bounty hunter.

Patty Mayo is one of the thousands of people who have found a way to earn a living from posting content on social media platforms like YouTube and Instagram. While some use their real name, Patty is one of those who have taken to being recognized by their alias. Here is what we know about the faux bounty hunter, including his real name and what he is up to these days.

How Old Is Patty Mayo?

Patty Mayo is 36 years old. He was born on July 6, 1987. At his current age, Patty Mayo has achieved a remarkably sustainable level of success as a social media influencer.

What Is Patty Mayo’s Real Name?

Pretty Mayo’s real name is Patrick Thomas Tarmey. However, it seems that he has taken to being addressed and recognized by the moniker Patty Mayo. We have yet to establish how he came about the moniker, although the first part of his social media name suggests that it might be a short form of his first name Patrick.

Where Is Patty Mayo From?

Patty Mayo is originally from Boston, Massachusetts. Several sources close to the influencer have confirmed that he was born and raised there. At the moment, his primary residence is in California.

Nonetheless, there is not enough information about what his life was like as a young kid, and we also have nothing on the members of his birth family, including his parents and any siblings he might have had.

While it is irrefutable that Mayo got some form of formal education, the exact details of that area of his life have yet to become public knowledge.

Is Patty Mayo A Real Or Fake Bounty Hunter?

Patty Mayo is not a real bounty hunter. That fact has been repeatedly made clear by the Oregon State Sheriffs’ Association. It is no surprise though that it is an aspect of his profession that has left millions of his followers puzzled with regard to his standing in the law enforcement community.

He essentially became famous for the bounty-hunting content he posts on his YouTube channel, which includes real-life police investigations, arrests, and other processes surrounding the responsibilities of a bounty hunter. His involvement in these real-life scenarios does not mean that he is in any way a licensed bounty hunter.

Is Patty Mayo A Real Cop?

Patty Mayo is not a real cop. Given his cozy relationship with the members of the police force in his country, one might be forgiven for thinking that the Boston-born influencer was a real cop. His videos even portray him and some of his crew as deputies of a sheriff’s office known as DBSO, but the truth remains that the DBSO does not legally exist.

The statement released by the Sheriffs’ association confirms that they are aware of the activities of Mayo, who shoots most of his videos in Deschutes County, but that he is not a cop nor affiliated in any way with the Sheriff’s office in Oregon. They also re-established the fact that he is an actor and that the uniforms he uses to carry out his activities were merely a costume.

 

The reality remains that Mayo chose Oregon as a base for his YouTube content because of the relaxed laws in that area. Those relaxed laws include citizen arrest laws that permit random individuals to arrest fellow individuals who have committed certain misdemeanors, including assault, in their presence. These laws also allow Mayo to make YouTube videos with paid actors.

In return, Mayo submits to the Deschutes County Sheriff’s office’s right to review and monitor his activities and ensure that they are in accordance with Oregon laws, none of which his videos seem to have violated.

Where Does Patty Mayo Work?

Officially Patty Mayo is in the media business. As indicated, though, the influencer’s efforts are targeted primarily at the social media audience, who seem to be lapping up most of the content that he puts up with glee and adulation.

As seen from the majority of the contents of this article, he soared to popularity with his Southland Bounty Hunters YouTube series. Having joined YouTube in 2013, it took some level of combined hard and smart work for Mayo to attain the level of influence he has on various social media platforms, especially YouTube.

According to various reliable sources, Mayo began his YouTube career by posting prank videos, which is a dime a dozen as far as the platform goes. However, with the help of an algorithm, he managed to attain over 700k subscribers while portraying the made-up French character Ze Oil Boy.

At some point, the algorithm stopped favoring his raunchy, college-humor-style videos, and that prompted a change that eventually led to the launch of the much-celebrated Southland Bounty Hunters series. He managed to amass over 10 million subscribers over a very short time, and that achievement has seen his popularity soar.

Long before Mayo decided to devote his time to his social media business, he was a model and an entrepreneur whose net worth reflected the level of hard work he had put into his craft.

What Is Patty Mayo’s Net Worth?

Patty Mayo has a net worth currently estimated to be around $2.8 million. It does not require a financial wizard to deduce the fact that most of the influencer’s considerably sizable net worth comes from the work he does as a social media influencer.

What Happened To Patty Mayo?

For a while now, Patty Mayo has not been as active as he once was on his social media platforms. The reason for this hiatus has yet to become clear, but based on the fact that he did something like this once in 2017, we feel that there is not that much reason to worry about the influencer’s absence.

As previously stated, though, Patty Mayo currently resides in Southern California.

Does Patty Mayo Have A Wife Or Partner?

Patty Mayo is not yet married, but he is in a committed romantic relationship with his partner Raven Walton. Not much is known about Raven except for the fact that she sometimes appears in some of the content he posts on YouTube.

They reportedly started dating in 2020, but the details of their relationship, including how and where they met, have yet to be chronicled. Prior to dating Raven, Mayo was in a relationship with a woman known as Kayla Pillar. They have a daughter together.

She filled important duties, including sometimes working as a camera person, administrator, or scriptwriter when she was with him. They went their separate ways in 2019.
