I believe you’ve heard of those fraudsters who live abroad but still try to claim welfare from their home countries. But did you know what they submit as “proof” that they’re still living at home? Badly photoshopped photos. I’m talking “Oprah’s third hand” bad, and even worse.

The UK’s Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has reported an increase in fraud involving photoshopped images. But some of them are so hilariously bad that it would be a shame not to share them for some laughs.

Funny Photoshop fails are something that always makes me giggle. This time, Khloé Kardashian has one that’s downright bizarre. In a photo she recently posted on Instagram, her fans noticed that her legs seem freakishly long (again). But what drew even more attention is a chubby extra toe that somehow ended up on her right foot.

Madonna recently came under fire for sharing a poorly photoshopped image of her head on another woman’s body. I honestly don’t know what’s weirder – the awful Photoshop job, the publishing of this image on Madonna’s official Instagram page, or the fact that it was published in 2015 and only got viral now.

We’ve seen plenty of hilarious and downright incredible Photoshop fails. One thing they never fail to do, though, is making us laugh. A few days ago, an episode of “The Bachelor” came under the spotlight for its terrible Photoshop job. It features women in bikinis having a photoshoot, but the producers apparently believed that some bikinis revealed too much. So, they “extended” them by literally painting them in, and it looks so terrible that I highly suspect they used MS Paint.

And indeed, it was – there were actually no women in it, they were Photoshopped in before the photo was published.

The interim president of Kazakhstan Qasym-Zhomart Toqaev has been in the center of a recent Photoshop fail. In his official images, the leader’s face has been so obviously beauty-retouched, that they look like he applied beauty filters for Instagram. And as an assumption goes, it’s all done to make him look as a younger and as a “fresh face.”
