When youโre caught lying, there are two ways you can react:
- Admit you lied and start telling the truth
- Keep lying until the end of time and hope no one finds out
Throughout history, humans have learned that while lying can get you out of sticky situations momentarily, it will eventually come back to bite you.
And if you donโt believe me, just ask Nora Nur. (If that is her real name, that is).

Caught Lying in Urgent Appeal for Funds for Ailing Cat
Earlier this month, a woman by the name of Nora Nur made an urgent appeal on Facebook for funds to treat an abandoned cat she claimed to have found in Punggol.
She said she brought it to the vet who diagnosed the cat, Gogi, with a number of ailments and diseases, including one potentially fatal one called Feline Infectious Peritonitis.
Nora claimed that Gogi needed to undergo a hysterectomy, which would cost $800 and would need another $6,000 to treat her FIP.
โPlease save Gogiโs life!โ her post said, in all caps, adding that small donations of $5 and $10 can save her life.
She also shared pictures of the poor cat, as well as scans supposedly taken at a vet.
Itโs nice that she cares so deeply for this poor, sick feline, right? Sure, except it was all a lie.
A suspicious member of the Facebook group Sayang Our Singaporeโs Community Cats did some digging and found that the receipts Nora had shared from the vet were forged.
She made a police report and the authorities discovered that there was no such cat being treated, even though around 60 people made donations for Gogiโs supposed medical bills.

In response, Nora admitted that she had lied about the vet bills, but insisted that the cat was real, and in Vietnam instead.
Well, surprise surprise, she seems to have lied about this as well.

Investigations Show X-ray & Ultrasound Image Donโt Belong to Gogi
The same netizen who shared her concerns online and made the police report shared an update yesterday (21 Nov).
According to the post, the X-ray of Gogi that Nora had shared actually came from Mutian Vietnam โ a vet in Vietnam โ and does not belong to Gogi.
The netizen added that Nora had also sent her a blood test report of Gogiโs from a clinic in Vietnam called Benh Viet Thu Y Kim Son, but when she called up the clinic, they said that the blood test report was for a grey cat, not a white one, like Gogi.

The netizen noted that Gogiโs supposed ultrasound image had the word โcanineโ in it and was dated โ2021-03-22โ, leading her to believe that it didnโt belong to Gogi either.
โIn a separate case, โNora Nurโ had presented more forged receipts to collect funds from other adopters for treatments never done at Frankel Vet. Frankel Vet has filed a police report,โ the netizen said.
She added that Nora has since revealed that she is Vietnamese. Both she and another 20-year-old, a man named Davis, have been interviewed by the police.
โThank you to the many members who reached out to provide further information. We shall leave this case to the Singapore Police Force for further investigations,โ the netizen said.
โPlease do not allow this episode to discourage us from helping other cats in need. There are a lot of community cats in need of our support and saying.โ
