Teresa Giudice death hoax spreads on Facebook

Rumors of the author’s alleged demise gained traction on Tuesday after a ‘R.I.P. Teresa Giudice’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the American author’s passing:

“At about 11 a.m. ET on Tuesday (November 19, 2024), our beloved author Teresa Giudice passed away. Teresa Giudice was born on May 18, 1972 in Paterson. She 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 52-year-old author 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 American network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of an author of Teresa Giudice's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that 54% still think false Teresa Giudice death rumors are funny.
