Obviously, the false news report was extremely detailed. It also claimed that Jahira Dar, Millan’s wife, held a press conference to confirm Millan’s fatal heart attack, “I hope you can understand my loss, and I would appreciate if you can give us our space for mourning,” Dar was reported to have stated.

Unfortunately, readers repost these types of articles despite the deluge of internet death hoaxes over the past few years. The fake news report quickly went viral via social media sites like Twitter and Facebook. A little research into the site and report would have gone a long way. First, no major respected news sites were also reporting the story.
