There are tones of articles on this but I’ve picked this one
https://www.vox.com/2019/3/3/1824878...hoax-explained It was a complete hoax and everyone fell for it. Saw a thread on here talking about it so i thought I’d make this thread. Kinda shocking and hilarious how stuff like this can get perpetuated into massive proportions. |

It was supposedly linked with suicide ,is there any evidence anyone has harmed themselves or killed themselves because of momo?? .
Sounded a bit like fear mongering ,however I'm glad it raised awareness for kids to be more alert & safe online . The momo image is freaky & disturbing to look at , and I wondered how it worked and thought some hacker was using the image to scare people ? . |

It appears to have been an urban legend, however people ran with it and it was a self fulfilling prophecy..not sure I would say 'hoax' exactly as that implies it didn't actually happen to anyone, it did, just it was not some random internet stranger targetting random kids, it was people they knew. TS went into this in a bit of detail in the other thread.

Ironically, people freaking out about it so much that it ended up mainstream news is the REASON that it became an actual thing ![]() (But that school putting up big Momo posters is still brilliant ![]() |
