Twitter rips woman to shreds for ‘lying’ about owning a Mercedes-Benz

'Mercedes-Benz familia is the best, wouldn't have chosen any other brand,' the woman shared on social media.


Mercedes-Benz has been trending since the early hours of Thursday morning because of a woman who accused of lying about owning the luxury ride.

A woman by the name of Pearl Makunga recently shared a picture of a cup of cappuccino with a Mercedes-Benz logo on its froth and wrote: “Not a caffeine person but this was cute. I had to take a picture lol. Mercedes Benz familia is the best, wouldn’t have chosen any other brand.”

.

.

Somehow, one social media detective saw Makhunga’s post and shared a similar post from Mercedes-Benz on Instagram in which it had written: “Two stars are better than one! Good morning wherever you are in the world! Photo shot  by Tamm Pasin at the Mercedes-Benz Cafe in Bangkok, Thailand.

.

.

Asked to explain herself, Makhunga said Mercedes-Benz favourites every single picture she posts of her car.

“Others even then post them on their TL,” she said.

She further shared pictures of herself with a Mercedes-Benz at a dealership and thanked them for their “amazing service”. She slated those who had called a liar and told them to “come at me as a Mercedes-Benz owner”.

Though some believe she does not own a Mercedes-Benz, some said they believed her but she’d made a mistake by sharing the picture as her own.

However, Twitter is still not having any of it. Check out the reactions below:
