Few people would likely say they enjoy being lied to, however many have arguably been deceived in one way or another. And while some lies might seem difficult to believe, others can be surprisingly convincing, especially if the liar is skilled enough not to start laughing at the worst possible time.
Redditor ‘WattAtWork’ has recently started a discussion about lies among members of the ‘Ask Reddit’ community. They asked them what has been the biggest lie they’ve ever fallen for, and fellow netizens shared all sorts of stories, ranging from funny to pretty upsetting, and everything in between. If you want to see what kind of webs netizens have found themselves trapped in, scroll down to find their answers on the list below to find out.
Below you will also find Bored Panda’s interviews with the redditor ‘WattAtWork’ themselves, as well as professor in the department of educational and counseling psychology at McGill University and author of the book The Truth About Lying: Teaching Honesty to Children at Every Age and Stage, Dr. Victoria Talwar.
