Another invented death and a new denial of the protagonist. If three weeks ago it was José Luis Perales who published a video to show that he is still alive after a fake account gave him for dead, this time it was the turn of the writer Rosa Montero.

The author of The Cannibal's Daughter was surprised on Monday by the announcement of her death on a fake Twitter account, which appeared to be that of the Alfaguara publishing house in Mexico. Montero denounced in the same network that the information is false and that he continues "around here giving the can."

"As you know there is a total cretin out there who is hanging false accounts of publishers and other companies with which he communicates the death of known people. If I remember correctly, about a month ago Perales was charged. Now he has taken out a false note from Alfaguara saying that I have died. Well, that, friends, I'm still around here giving the can, "he posted on the social network.

The journalist Lydia Cacho had denied the false news by ensuring that Rosa Montero was in Mexico to collect a literary prize, an information confirmed by the writer herself, who answered her from Toluca.
