Kids, don’t believe everything you read on the internet.

If you do, you’ll probably end up spouting off bad information to your friends, such as the “facts” found in the latest story written by quasi-famous Twitter rumor-monger “Incarcerated Bob.”

His website, ibnsportswrap.com, is home to several of the bad sports rumors you’ve heard in recent years, such as Jameis Winston shaving points to help out his friend.

This time, it was an Ole Miss fan that set out to prove that Incarcerated Bob would do just about anything to be the first to a scoop. Including, apparently, posting a fabricated story that was e-mailed to him without getting any sort of verification or doing any fact-checking.

The plot of the deception?

The claim was that Ole Miss OL Laremy Tunsil, who is a person of interest to the NCAA after a scuffle with his stepfather that presumably hinged on meeting with agents, was under NCAA investigation and about to be suspended 4-6 games by Ole Miss for his actions.

None of this is actually true (as far as we know).

Part I of the deception involved a fake letter from the NCAA:

The prankster  then used the following message posted on Tunsil’s Twitter account to back his plot:

 

According to e-mails obtained by SBNation, the prankster posing as an anonymous tipster, included some information about a suspension and some details about how Ole Miss planned to handle the release of the information.

Incarcerated Bob ate all of this up, according to the e-mails.

He did have questions about what appeared to be a missing second page of the document, but that didn’t seem important enough to him to wait on, choosing to post this article instead:

Ahh, but Bob, it looks like you might have wanted that second piece of paper. It has a message you may want to see:

Is there anything SEC fans won’t do to protect their programs from internet evil? I don’t think so.

Is there a better ending to this story than a fake letter being signed “P.S. Poot noises”?  I don’t think so.
