A SICK fake account pretending to be Madeleine McCann has emerged on Facebook, claiming “am back f***ers”.
The hoax profile joined the social media site on Thursday before posting a picture captioned: “Am back troops, been a long 10 years, whos onit x.”
In the intro section of the account, it also says “am back f***ers", while the profile picture is supposed to show how the missing girl might look now.
The profile claiming to be missing Maddie has now been shared almost 10,000 times on the social network.
But furious users have responded to the vile post, branding the person behind it “sick in the head”.
Facebook user Danielle Cassidy said: “Some people are just sick in the head. Absolutely shocking.”
Erin Bethany said: “I do not understand how people think this could be remotely funny.”
Ben Brookshaw added: “Really don’t understand how this is funny? Constantly see people sharing stupid jokes about Maddie, she was a young girl.. would you do the same if it was your sister or niece? Not funny in the slightest.”
Three-year-old Maddie disappeared from an apartment during a family holiday in Praia da Luz, Portugal in May 2007.
The toddler and her younger twin siblings had been left sleeping alone while parents Kate and Gerry McCann dined at a nearby restaurant with friends.
An inquiry into her disappearance, launched in May 2011, under former Prime Minister David Cameron, has cost British taxpayers £11.6million so far.
