The influencer who got canceled for faking a charity walk still bothers me
I just read about that influencer who claimed to walk 500 miles for cancer research but was caught editing GPS data. She raised like $30,000 before someone noticed her path went through a lake. Did she deserve the cancelation or do we pile on too quick these days?

Actually it was 500 miles, not 500 kilometers, which would've taken her about two weeks of nonstop walking even without the GPS trickery. The route through the lake should've been the first red flag.

Wonder if anyone's checked the weather radar data from that night yet.

Yeah, and who walks through a lake without noticing? That part alone kills the whole story.
