Fact-check: TikToker Khaby Lame's car accident rumors debunked
Rumors of TikTok sensation Khaby Lame being involved in a tragic accident have flooded social media, causing concern among fans. Lame is famous for his silent comedic style and humorous hand gestures. False reports circulating on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and X earlier this month claimed that Lame had passed away in a car crash, with some posts even sharing images of a wrecked vehicle purportedly linked to him. Lame's absence from social media only fueled speculation further. However, fact-checkers at Reuters and Snopes have confirmed that these claims are untrue and misleading. There has been no credible news coverage or official statement confirming any accident involving the internet personality. The false posts were found to be connected to clickbait schemes seeking to attract traffic or steal user information through phishing links. Lame is believed to be safe and well, as confirmed by a recent Instagram post he shared. Despite his immense popularity, Lame prefers to keep his personal life private. Celebrity death hoaxes, such as this one, have become a common trend used by scammers to drive engagement and potentially gather personal data.
