Woman fakes cancer & Cons Friends !
What a low life... Can you imagine putting your friends and loved ones through the agony - just for money and attention.....................
A fraudster conned well-wishers out of thousands of dollars by falsely claiming she had terminal cancer.
Ashley Anne Kirilow shaved her head and eyebrows and even starved herself to look like a chemotherapy patient during the two-year scam.
In a final insult to genuine cancer sufferers, the 23-year-old claimed she had just months to live and had 'Won't quit' tattooed on her knuckles.
But now Ashley has finally admitted her illness is a hoax and is set to appear in court in Canada on fraud charges.
The con artist claims she did it to get noticed and persuade her estranged parents to get back together.
She said: 'I know what I did was wrong but I was trying to get noticed.
'I was trying to get my family back together and I just didn't want to feel like I was nothing anymore.
'It went wrong, the story spread like crazy and then suddenly it seemed like the whole world knew about it.'
In late 2008 Ashley was treated for a benign lump in her breast but after the procedure she started telling friends she had breast cancer.
During the following months the compulsive liar went on to tell people she had brain cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer and ovarian cancer, at various stages and in various combinations.
In 2009 Ashley then called her father, Mike, who she hadn't seen for four years since the breakdown of her parents marriage.
Kirilow told him that she needed a bone marrow transplant or she would be dead in six months.
Her father was immediately suspicious.
Her mother also smelled a rat. She said: 'The only thing she ever wanted from me was money, and I couldn?t ever give it to her.
'I was crying but I told her she was beautiful and that chemo was fully covered in Canada and she would be fine.
After failing to get money from her parents Ashley went on to convince her friend, Adam Catley, of her fatal illness and he let her live rent free with him for several months before organising a benefit at his father's pub.

That's why i said... "I feel sorry for her SICK MIND!" meaning, she deserves being in prison (if ever) for what she did to other people. If she had just ended up her "pretending games" during the time his friend is already organizing a benefit for her, maybe i'd even praise her for her plight to bring her family back together.
:)
Reading the full story, whilst I sympathise on her plight, I have no symapthy for her. She conned people and spent all the money.
i don't they should put her in prison.
she only needs psychologically therapy,she was trying to get her family back
i don't understand what she's scrounging for? she want her parents back in each others arms? i wouldn't even think of making such horrific lies... i mean, what if it becomes real? anyways, she just busted her life. i feel sorry for her inevitable sick mind. :(
heard of hypochondriacs but she is even faking it...human mind is so complex !!
She's a scrounger and a low life..
she's psychologically ILL!
what a scum...
I know a couple of people who lied about their illness but none went to these extremes.
What a creep! All this for cash? *shudders* She certainly had a diseased heart and sick mind if nothing else!
