Title: Phuc Dat Bich admits hoax in Facebook name battle
Post by: eye30 on November 25, 2015, 11:27:35

An Australian calling himself Phuc Dat Bich who made global headlines after saying he was fighting to use his real name on Facebook admits it was hoax.

"Mr Bich" said on Facebook his real name was "Joe Carr" (or perhaps joker).

He said what had started as a joke between friends "became a prank that made a fool out of the media".
