Everyone knows selfies and social media can be fun, but they can also get you in trouble. A bit of trouble followed one Dublin couple who staged a car accident and claimed not to know each other but Facebook posts proved otherwise, the Irish Independent reported.

According to recent report by the newspaper the Irish Independent, David Ward was jailed for a year after claiming to have suffered spinal injuries in a car crash with Lynsey Ivory.
