Kendall Rae: 本期节目讲述了Belle Gibson伪造癌症经历进行诈骗的故事,其影响范围之广、手段之恶劣令人震惊。她利用社交媒体平台和应用程序'The Whole Pantry',以及食谱等,编造患有癌症的谎言,欺骗了成千上万的人,并从中获利。她的谎言涉及到虚构的诊断、治疗过程、慈善捐款等多个方面,严重损害了公众利益和信任。她的行为不仅具有欺骗性,而且对那些真正患有癌症的人造成了极大的伤害,因为她的谎言给了他们虚假的希望。 Belle Gibson本人在多个场合都否认自己患有癌症,并试图将责任推卸给其他人,包括虚构的医生和自然疗法治疗师。她声称自己被误诊,并相信自己可以通过食物和替代疗法治愈癌症,但这些说法都缺乏证据支持。她的行为不仅是欺诈,而且是对公众健康和福祉的严重威胁。 Belle Gibson: (根据节目内容,Belle Gibson在采访中不断为自己辩解,试图将责任推卸给他人,并否认自己有欺骗行为。她声称自己相信自己患有癌症,并试图通过替代疗法治愈自己。她还声称自己被误诊,并被其他人欺骗。但是,这些说法都缺乏证据支持,并且与事实相矛盾。)
