A Man Disguised Himself As His Dead Mom For Three Years And You’ll Never Guess Why

…although you probably can, it was for money, obviously. There you go, now you don’t have to read this article. I’m sorry I clickbaited you here under false pretences. Go ahead, go do something more productive with your day than wasting your time here.

An Italian man has been arrested for alleged benefit fraud after allegedly dressing up as his dead mother, allegedly. 

The alleged 56-year-old from Borgo Virgilio allegedly claimed 53,000 alleged euros annually from alleged pension payments meant for his alleged mother, allegedly hiding her alleged body rather than reporting her alleged death.

Allegedly.

I’m guessing his vibe is something like this but Italian.

It seems that he wasn’t repeatedly collecting the cheques dressed as a woman, but it was only when his mom’s ID expired that he had to go in person to get her paperwork renewed. Little problem, though: his mom was super dead.

Obviously, unless she had a really good skin routine and Mr. Man could pull off the ‘Weekend at Bernie’s’ of the century, the three-year-old corpse probably wasn’t going to pass mustard (cut the muster? What’s the phrase?).

So, he had no choice: he had to Mrs. Doubtfire this shit.

As the mayor of Borgo Virgilio explained, he shuffled into the council office dressed as “an old woman,” wearing “lipstick, nail polish, jewellery and old-fashioned earrings, and had a dark brown bob of hair.”

Queen.

It was only thanks to the staff members’ deep-seated transphobia that the man was quickly spotted as a fraud.

The workers noticed that his neck “was a bit too thick and even the wrinkles were strange”, allegedly. “The skin on his hands did not seem to be that of an 85-year-old woman.”

So there we go, the investigation’s ongoing, but if there’s a lesson to be learned from all this, kids, it’s that you should really moisturize.
