If you remember, Num8 went on a whirlwind tour back in February. He had been diagnosed with a medical condition with afew weeks to live medical condition. Hundreds of furries worldwide contributed to his cause, providing him one last trip before he died.

Well, the worst appears to be true... I had a sinking suspicion that this was the case as the months went by and there were no updates. Not that Num8 had passed on, but that is alive and better than before, and that he had no medical condition in the first place!

This was put together, and it appears the Num8's incurable condition was fraudulent with lots of evidence.

Stuff like this makes me sad and angry. How can you make up such a heart wrenching story, use the kindness of hundreds of people, just for your own short term gain. This fandom is very close knit; it's not like you can fool people by changing your avatar and name and disappear.

The only hope now is that this article is false.

Who can you trust these days? I know for sure I'll never even recognize the guy exists now. If this is all true, I hope everyone does the same, as he will indeed not exist.

I gave the guy Universal tickets, but I know the other people around me gave him a lot more. Is all I can say is that if he was lying to us the whole time, he better not show his face in town again.

I don't know you and you don't know me, found this through google ^^

Around the time Num8 was said to have passed on, 2 close relatives of mine passed away.. shortly followed by him. To find out about this has physically sickened me. I knew the guy and was heartbroken to lose not only family but friends as well and I was inconsolable for a long time.

To discover today that he had the cruelty to lie about something like this... I have no words :(

I dont know if he is or is not lieing sadly, I hope not because he was a cool guy and fun to hang out with. If he was lieing it really sucks. I appologize for your loss also *hugs you*

That's a very common fraud... People get arrested for that all the time! So, the question is, has anyone called the cops on this loser?

I've noticed a strong trend in the fandom. The more batshit insane you are, the more pathologically you lie, the worse of a person you are, then the more famous and well liked you are.

This is just another example for my pile. :/
