Photo of US sisters used to falsely claim they went missing in South Africa
In June 2024, two young sisters went missing in the United States, leading to a manhunt spanning two states. A few weeks later, a picture of the girls was posted online alongside claims the pair were missing in the South African city of Cape Town. But the claim is false; the post is part of a convoluted online scam. In reality, the two children in the image were kidnapped in the US state of Louisiana. One died, along with their mother. The older sibling survived the ordeal.
