Social Media “Health” Guru Fakes Cancer ...

Mile Higher Media & Audioboom Studios
About this episode
Belle Gibson always had a problem with lying, but she took it to another level when she started posting on social media claiming to have been diagnosed with cancer and only had 4 months left to live. Her success in life and seemingly charming way about her got people hooked on her positive message. These lies soon turned to scams through an app and a cookbook, and she started convincing people to follow her harmful claims in pseudoscience as it “helped” her live longer than she was allegedly supposed to.
