MESA, Ariz. -- Police say a woman pretended to have breast cancer so she could get implants.
The 27-year-old is accused of fraud and theft. Police say the woman used the money she raised in a website scheme for breast implants.
On the fundraising website it reads 'Jami has breast cancer and no insurance'.
Police say she raised $8,000 for a double mastectomy she didn't need.
Police caught on to the imposter when she declined a doctor's offer to operate on her breast cancer.
