pregnancy to get some time off work was rumbled after a co-worker spotted her fake baby bump.Robin Folsom, 43, earned about $100,000 (about £74k) as Director of External Affairs at Georgia Vocational Rehabilitation Agency (GVRA), supervising the agency’s marketing and media communications.She told her bosses at GVRA that she was pregnant, and arranged to take maternity leave.However, Folsom’s plan began to unravel when a co-worker saw something suspicious and blew the whistle.According to a statement from the office of Georgia State Inspector General Scott McAfee, an investigation “revealed that in March 2021, a co-worker observed the lower portion of Folsom’s stomach ‘come away’ from her body," leading her to believe that Folsom wore a fake pregnancy stomach.”Folsom even invented a fake dad for her baby, a man named named “Bran Otmembebwe”.But McAfee said: “We ultimately didn’t find any evidence that he existed. That’s why she’s also been charged with identity fraud”.After “giving birth,” Folsom sent baby photos to several co-workers, but they didn’t all appear to be of the sam baby.The images “depicted children with varying skin tones,” a release from the Inspector General’s office stated.Folsom had told her employers that she had given birth once before, in July 2020, before getting pregnant again in August 2021.
