Satya Oblet death hoax spreads on Facebook
Rumors of the model’s alleged demise gained traction on Wednesday after a ‘R.I.P. Satya Oblet’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the French model’s passing:
“At about 11 a.m. ET on Wednesday (November 20, 2024), our beloved model Satya Oblet passed away. Satya Oblet was born on January 3, 1976 in Pondichéry. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 48-year-old model was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.
Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major French network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of a model of Satya Oblet's stature would be major news across networks.
A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (74%) of respondents think those Satya Oblet death rumors are not funny anymore.
