    On the worst things you can do karma wise list, this is pretty high

    They all thought she was dying of cancer — and they all handed her cash.

    Ashley Anne Kirilow, a 23-year-old Burlington native, admits she faked cancer, ran a bogus charity and collected thousands of dollars from hundreds of people.

    She shaved her head and eyebrows, plucked her eyelashes and starved herself to look like a chemotherapy patient. She told anyone she met she had been disowned by drug-addicted parents, or that they were dead.

    lol - no way - OT would've sniffed her out within a week

    every time I think there's nothing more that could surprise me, someone sinks to a new low

    on the bright side, if she actually set up a fake charity, she should end up behind bars

    What I did was wrong,” Ashley said Thursday night. “I was trying to be noticed. I was trying to get my family back together. I didn’t want to feel like I’m nothing anymore. It went wrong, it spread like crazy, and then it seemed like the whole world knew.”

    Awwww, how noble. She was just trying to get her family back together...GFY!

    This is a pretty common scam and it usually always works but the people doing it are so dumb they always get caught. When you stoop to this level you gotta be prepared to disappear forever after getting the monies. idiots

    Woman who faked cancer will spend the weekend in jail, police say

    Published On Sat Aug 07 2010
    Volunteers claim Ashley Kirilow raised $20,000, but she says it was less than $5,000.

    A woman who admits she faked having cancer for a charity scam will spend the weekend in jail after a brief hearing this afternoon, police say.
    Ashley Anne Kirilow, who is alleged to have raised at least $13,000 in bogus charity money, was taken to the Vanier Centre for Women, a prison in Milton, after appearing via video link at a Hamilton courtroom.
    Kirilow was arrested by Halton fraud investigators after turning herself into the Oakville police station Friday.
    Police say the arrest happened without incident and was “dealt with quickly.”
    Kirilow was charged with three counts of fraud under $5,000. If convicted, she faces a maximum penalty of two years in jail.
    A Star investigation revealed that Kirilow shaved her head, plucked her eyebrows and eyelashes to make herself look like a chemotherapy patient. The ruse included attending charity events in her honour, taking cancer research donations from hundreds of people and accepting a flight to Disney World from a legitimate Toronto-based cancer-awareness organization.
    Kirilow told the Star she was sorry and wanted to pay the money back, adding she “can’t possibly give it back to every single person, but I can give it to charity.”
    The 23-year-old, who has since blamed her miserable childhood for the situation, started telling people she had cancer and when she had a benign tumor removed from her breast in 2008.
    Kirilow will have another court appearance on Monday morning at a Milton courthouse.
