A mother went to extraordinary lengths to con her family and friends out of thousands of dollars by convincing them she was dying of cancer, it has been claimed. Lori Stilley, 40, allegedly duped supporters by telling them she had Stage IV bladder cancer - even writing a book about her experience, making t-shirts and holding fund-raisers in the scam. Supporters raised more than $12,000 for medical expenses, prepared her meals and even paid for the 'inspirational' mother's wedding, Philly.com reported. But, after suddenly announcing a 'miraculous recovery' in November, suspicion arose around the mother-of-two's 'condition'. Supporters realised they had not seen any medical bills or doctor's notes, and no one had been with her when she had visited the hospital for her cancer. Now she has been accused of weaving a web of lies, and her heartless hoax has been exposed.
