Why do people have to lie and pretend to be sick?
The main motivation is usually a person admitted malingering is to gain sympathy, so he became the center of the attention, all desires can be realized and he was getting attention from old friends or family. But sometimes the falsehood was based on a desire to get a lot of money.
One case in point is a woman from Boston who claimed that Christian Cloughety cancer in friends and family. Sympathy for the people who held a fundraiser on his behalf and get the money of about U.S. $ 50,000. But it was reported that he used the money to buy new cars and breast implants.
But there are some people who actually have the disease or disorder, in this case is not cancer but a mental illness known to man-made disturbances (factitious disorder).
People with this disorder to pretend to have a disease (usually in the terminal one) and often try hard to maintain such a joke.
A person feels that he has a disease, but in some cases involving the most tragic fact of her children.
One type of artificial disturbance is Munchausen syndrome, which involves people such as children or others who suffer from a disease that made him have to take care of these sick people.
Examples in the year 2003, there were parents of seven year old girl named Hannah Milbrandt told friends and family that her daughter had cancer.

Although Munchausen syndrome is a rare disorder, but this is hardly unique. Two years before a women from Indiana collects more than U.S. $ 6000 by saying that her daughter was dying of leukemia affected.
Artificial disturbance was likely more common than people realize. Some cases are found as a joke and eventually just a sham. But there are also cases of people tend to suddenly start getting better for fear of arousing suspicion action.
