The FBI is hunting for a woman accused of faking terminal brain cancer and scamming her loved ones out of thousands of dollars.
Vanessa O’Rourke, a 37-year-old originally from Harleysville, Pennsylvania, lied about having glioblastoma, a terminal brain cancer, and told her friends and family she needed money for treatment, investigators alleged. She was indicted on 15 counts of wire fraud in 2018 and remains on the run.
