Given Lindsay Lohan's current situation, it was only a matter of time before a death hoax would surface. Yes, the 24-year-old actress was the target of a Justin Bieber-esque bogus death report early this morning. 

Around midnight PST, LiLo's Wikipedia page was edited to note that the jail-bound actress had died at age 24, E! News reports, and no cause of death was indicated.

The hoax snowballed like rapid fire — thanks to the reigning social media network, Twitter — with Tweets questioning whether or not Lindsay had died.

Then came Lindsay's new BFF — Kim Kardashian.

Along with the Wikipedia updates and Tweets, a bogus Kim Kard Twitter account — with a misspelled ID name as "kimkardashain"— fueled the confusion with the following Tweet, via E! News:  "Omg! Is @lindsaylohan dead?! I keep hearing these rumors from my friends n stuff!! Is it true?!"

In reality, Kim has not Tweeted about Lindsay in days — her last visit to the troubled actress was a week ago.

Kim has however had a date at Pinkberry with Justin Bieber.

So what is the real Lindsay up to?

She is very much alive.
