Polish woman claims she 'might be' Madeleine McCann and offers DNA test

A young woman has posted a series of bizarre posts on Instagram claiming to be missing British girl Madeleine McCann.

The Polish woman, who posts under the handle @iammadeleinemccann, purports to have evidence backing her claims that she is the youngster, who disappeared from a holiday apartment in the Algarve in Portugal in 2007. The Mirror reports that investigators are not taking her claims seriously.

German prosecutors have stated in the past that they believe the youngster is dead, and could charge chief suspect Christian Brueckner with her killing this summer. However, the Polish woman has continued to post undeterred, claiming she and the missing girl have too much in common for her claims to be ignored.
