YFN-Lucci was dragged into a nasty social media rumor on Wednesday that he had been murdered in prison… a complete fabrication for online clicks, TMZ Hip Hop can confirm.

Lucci’s lawyer Drew Findlingwho represented him in the RICO trial that resulted in his 10-year prison sentence in January, assures us that his client is alive and well.

The BlogSpot that spread the hoax played on the emotions of the recent death of Rich Homie Quanformer label mate of YFN Lucci.

Fans were also guilty of sharing heavy news from sites without any source… this is the kind of cultural failure Kendrick Lamar, Dee-1 And Lecrae have been preach that the community must clean up.
