'Clare the bogan' lied about her account

A Sydney woman who became an instant internet celebrity for her colourful account of a shooting in Kings Cross has now admitted she made the whole thing up.
Police investigating shooting of 27-year-old Justin Kallu in Kings Cross last weekend have confirmed Clare Werbeloff lied about her account.
"She has taken the media for a ride," an officer involved in the investigation told ninemsn, adding that Ms Werbeloff had never actually witnessed the shooting.
"She lied to the media but at no point did she tell police she had seen the shooting," he said.
The 19-year-old found fame online after giving her politically incorrect "eyewitness" account to Nine News.
The video footage of her interview started an online firestorm and was last week attracting hundreds of thousands of views.
A Facebook group, Clare The Kings Cross Bogan, boasted more than 16,000 fans and Ms Werbeloff was forced to hire a publicity agent to cope with media interest in her story.
Nine News freelance cameraman Greg Dulsdon told ninemsn she had approached him after immediately after the shooting and spontaneously given her detailed version of what had happened.
But her account has now been revealed as false.
Ms Werbeloff, who last week told ninemsn she was "loving the attention", wrote on her Facebook page the day after the shooting, "You all got Punk'd".
Ms Werbeloff is set to appear on Nine's A Current Affair tomorrow night.

it's just the same as people who sleep with sports people and then realise they can have their fifteen minutes of fame and then get money for it whilst ruining other people's lives.

it's just the mentality of society today. it's horrible but what can we do about it?

Yeah that was my guess when i first saw it too, she was drunk and just having a joke around with the media, theres no way anyone would stand around during a shooting to hear what she heard, and if she had she would have been talking to the police, not the media.

I doubt it was to make money though AFAIK she wasnt paid for that interview and she couldnt have known it would have exploded in popularity like this, my guess is she wanted to be in front of the cameras and have a joke at the medias expense.

We can start by not giving them that attention and turning away from the news :)

yeahh but then how can you know what's going on in the world around you?

it's a typical example of how the media will broadcast anything that anyone says without checking the credibility of it.

Hmmm, I wonder what this referring to...

Anyway, how is it the same. As far as I know, she didn't "ruin" any other people lives. Personally, I don't give a flying fuck about any of it, so meh. MEH!

It was pretty obvious when she couldn't actually tell the reporter where it happened. "Umm.. like over there".. "Where the police cars are"..
