Some incredulously twisted individual has been posing as Heath Ledger's father, Kim, in order to garner gifts from sympathising celebrities. According to Superficial' sources, the imposter: "was receiving emotional support over the phone from Tom Cruise. The con man also attempted to milk John Travolta for plane tickets to New York and had the funeral home where Heath’s body was being kept book him rooms at the Carlyle Hotel." The New York Post went on to say: "Over the next few days, he 'had had a couple of conversations with' Cruise, asking for emotional support, said the source. But Cruise abruptly cut him off when he learned 'he was an impostor' the source said. 'Heath's reps found out there was this hoaxer and they called various celebs.' Sources close to Cruise confirmed the impostor contacted him." Heinous display of sociopathic greed from this cretin (the imposter) aside - it would appear that Cruise's reported abilities to hunt out SPs (scientology term for 'suppressive persons') might need some fine tuning.
