The Malaysia Airlines Plane Found Hoax

By Ines Flores


The events of March 8th 2014 that saw Malaysia Air Flight 370 disappear have puzzled the world almost a year on. Nothing has been found on sea or on land despite the involvement of sophisticated technology, thousands of personnel and several nations in a comprehensive search. The Malaysia Airlines Plane Found hoax thrives on this vacuum. It shows images of wreckage on water that does not even belong to the said flight.

The disappearance of the Dream Liner on 8th March 2014 on its way to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur International Airport shocked the world. On board were 239 passengers on a scheduled flight. It lost contact almost an hour after takeoff and disappeared from tracking two minutes later. The aircraft remained within the Malaysian radar for close to an hour before disappearing completely.

The area covered by search missions is extremely expansive. They have used the most advanced technology available, jets, planes, ships and submarines without success. Thousands of sea specialists are also involved in related search missions.

After months of combing expansive areas in the sea and land, not even debris has been traced. The reports indicating that wreckage has been found are all false. These reports indicate that it was seen in remote islands of either the Mediterranean Sea or the Indian Ocean. Either way, none has been true.

The latest hoax cited a sailor who spotted the entire body of the plane when fishing. In that story, the sailor was paid five million dollars for assisting the rescue team. The page requires the reader to share it on facebook in order to view the content of a video on its finding. This is the first sign that the site and the report are not credible.

No one has seen the video despite sharing the links on social media. You are taken through numerous marketing surveys in an attempt to view the video. Surprisingly, even the image used does not belong to the jet that disappeared. They are of US Airways Flight 1549. It crashed in Hudson River, New York back in 2009 January.

Affiliate marketers are making millions by luring curious internet users into a video that does not exist. They earn by the clicks into their sites as well as surveys that you conduct in an attempt to activate the video. In other pages, your phone number is required. It is used in mobile subscription and marketing services that earn the marketers more money.

The whereabouts of 239 passengers aboard the commercial flight remains a puzzle. The jet is also said to have been among the most advanced in the market. Despite availability of advanced technology, nothing has been found yet. Dozens of countries have been combing the Indian Ocean with no success.

Family members believe that there was a conspiracy involving countries and aviation industry players in its disappearance. They seek to offer any whistle blower five million dollars for information regarding the plane. With no information on the Boeing 777 Dream Liner almost a year after disappearance, any news about what happened after takeoff from Malaysia International Airport is welcome and goes viral.
