Brad Pitt, Michael Jordan DEAD?! Viral Death Hoaxes On Facebook Claim Angelina Jolie’s Estranged Husband, Ex-NBA Superstar Committed Suicide

Oh no! Are Brad Pitt and Michael Jordan really dead? Well, the answer is no but they recently become the latest victims of celebrity death hoaxes following the reports on Sylvester Stallone and Jaden Smith, who was killed in various ways just this month.

Let's start off with the Brad Pitt Death Hoax. According to Daily Mail, a hoax website released a rumor claiming that Pitt has committed suicide following his shocking divorce with Angelina Jolie. What's somewhat shocking about the report is the claim that the 52-year-old "By the Sea" star has shot himself in the head while he was reportedly at a shooting range on Sunday, with sources saying the suicide was due to his current marital stresses.

Based on one of the photos posted by the publication, however, suggested a contradicting statement about Brad Pitt's death hoax. In fact, written below what seemed to be like the headline of the breaking report was the claim that Angelina Jolie's estranged husband hanged himself.

The Brad Pitt Death Hoax has been considered a scam article and Facebook has been warning its users about this malware that could reportedly expose some sensitive and personal information to the hackers, TMZ noted. The story could also destroy cellphones and computers. With that said, Facebook has been advising users who have fallen victim to the report to immediately change their passwords and run a malware software scanner.

Brad Pitt, however, is not the only celebrity victim in the latest round of death hoaxes. As a matter of fact, another celebrity death hoax claimed that Michael Jordan was also found dead in his home. But as per Inquisitr, the Michael Jordan Death Hoax was just an old scam report.

In addition, Jaden Smith has also been a victim of a celebrity death hoax over the summer and he has been killed off in several different ways and reasons. Daily Mirror even pointed out that the series of death claims on Facebook were all phishing scams, where users are led to fake links.

To end the speculations, Brad Pitt, Michael Jordan and Jaden Smith are all well and alive. As for the Sylvester Stallone Death Hoax, Parent Herald has reported that the overdose claims were fake.
