Pretty much anyone who's been online since the time before fb/myspace/etc, when it was all newsgroups and internet forums, has encountered that one person who is living a fictional life and ultimtely either "dies" or gets caught out. I knew one who even came back as her sister to watch all the people heartbroken and mourning her (right up until the website contacted her husband to find out where to donate all the money collected, and she answered the phone instead).
It sounds like that's the route she was intending to take, but it got to be too much for her.
