A resident of Indonesia named Lisa Devi Pramita went to extreme measures to avoid paying debts. According to her creditor, the debt was 4.2 million Indonesian rupiah (268 US dollars). First the debtor asked for an extension of the loan, and when the second payment period expired, her son announced her tragic death on social media. With photo evidence!
The pictures showed a "corpse" with pieces of cotton wool in the nostrils. But all this turned out to be nothing more than a trick ...
And the story was like this.
Maya Gunawan, the woman who lent Lisa Devi Pramita 4.2 million Indonesian rupiah, met her in an online group Arisan. This is a popular lottery system in Indonesia, where participants monthly make small contributions to the common piggy bank, and then one the member receives the full amount for that particular month. Since everything members end up with a monthly bank, this is considered type of investment.
Gunawan never met Lisa Devi Pramita in person, but when the latter asked her for a loan, she asked about her some other members of the group, and none of them said anything bad about her. So in the end she agreed to borrow 4.2 million Indonesian rupees, provided that Pramita returns them before November 20.
Pramita missed the deadline and asked for an extension of the loan. Mayan agreed and extended the deadline until 6 December. The money was not returned to her, Pramit's messages stopped responding. And then, on December 11, Maya Gunawan I read that the woman had died. And, of course, she was shocked.
Lisa Devi Pramita's son revealed on social media that his mother died tragically in a car accident on a bridge in Medan. He also posted photos of his mother with closed eyes and pieces of cotton wool in nose, gurney and medical personnel carrying the body on a gurney, covered with white sheets.
Maya Gunawan was saddened by the death of such a young woman, putting the unpaid debt out of his mind, but then Pramita's son announced that his mother will be buried in Aceh Tamiang, which is very far from her home. Maya began to doubt and decided more carefully study the photographs published by Pramita's son. She did a search pictures on Google and realized that those in which the face of a woman is not visible, just taken from the internet to fake her death.
Maya wrote to Pramita's son about her guesses and he admitted that everything it was a farce orchestrated by his mother for the sole purpose of not return the debt. Unfortunately, even after this exposure, Lisa Devi Pramita was never found and Maya still hasn't received her money. back.
This is definitely not the first time someone has staged their own death to avoid paying debts. But it's probably the first person who decided to "die" because of 270 dollars.
