                          Scammer exposed by Twitter users after he shared photo of a sick child and asked for financial support
A man tried to scam well-meaning Nigerians by sharing a photo of a sick child and a fake doctor's report in order to get financial support from Twitter users, but he was busted.
The man claimed in his tweet that his sick baby was in the hospital and he needed money to pay her bills. At first, a lot of people were sympathetic and were already asking for his account details.
But, some people noticed that the photo he used is the photo of a child who has died since. Doctors on Twitter also noticed that the doctor's report was fake and the words scribbled on it made no sense.
They went further to check his account and noticed that he just created the Twitter account last week, specifically to scam people.
Twitter users have taken to the fake page to drag whoever is behind it.
See screenshots below.

Photos of Prince Philip drives himself again just two days after he suffered a car crash in Sandringham

Prince Philip, 97, is back behind the wheels only two days after he got involved in a car crash that left two women and a 10-month-old child injured. Prince Philip was injured in Thursday's accident after he was "dazzled by the sun" while driving his Land Rover near the Royal family's Sandringham Estate. This caused him to collide with a Kia carrying two women and an infant. His vehicle turned over and he had to be helped out by an eyewitness. On Saturday, the Duke of Edinburgh was spotted again behind the wheels of a replacement Land Rover and without wearing his seatbelt. Just one day earlier, his wife, Queen Elizabeth, 92, was also spotted driving herself in a Range Rover close to where Prince Philip's accident occurred. Some photos show her driving without her seatbelt on while she was seen wearing her seatbelt in some.

Friends and family pay tribute to Emiliano Sala at a special memorial in his home town of Santa Fe, Argentina

Tributes were paid to late footballer Emiliano Sala today at a special memorial in his home town of Santa Fe, Argentina.   The body of the 28-year old, who died in a plane crash last month, was laid out in a gymnasium in the town where he grew up so friends and family could pay their last respects. Sala's body was flown back to Argentina and arrived in Buenos Aires on Friday morning before being driven to Progreso, where he grew up. The gymnasium of the Atletico y Social San Martin de Progreso club hosted boys' teams where Sala played as a child. Residents in the town of around 2,500 people, many wearing the red and black shirt of the local side with the name EMI on the back, began arriving at about 7 a.m. on Saturday to see the body and pay their last respects.   Cardiff manager Neil Warnock and the club's chief executive Ken Choo are among those who will attend the funeral this weekend.
