A couple was brutally trolled by netizens after they were caught lying about buying a house. When Nineteen-year-old Jacob Obers from Ohio shared a photograph of himself posing with his girlfriend Ana Bradley in front of a house he claimed to have bought, he probably did not expect that he would be caught. Vigilant netizens found a way to not only catch his lie but also call him out.
While many students all around the world struggle to survive, Obers’ story was quite an exception. “Bought our first house at age 19…What Y’all buying,” tweeted Obers along with two pictures of posing in front of the house with his girlfriend.

While many were sceptical about Obers’ claims and called the post fake, he finally accepted the lie when Comedian Mike Mulloy called him out with a tweet that read, “A $3.99 realty record that shows your dad bought it. Much like the company you ‘run’.”

Damn, that’s even funnier now. I spooked him into coming clean.

Soon after many people trolled the couple and called them “petty”. However, there were others who stated that the tweet was just a joke as the building in the picture is the Wildwood Manor House in Toledo, Ohio, which many failed to notice.
Well, something about it just SCREAMED generational wealth and privilege. Yup, thanks for clarifying. 👌🏿

So what are you saying here chief? That you just lied and now you’re trying to flex on people for not recognizing on sight some suburban mansion in Ohio?
