Rumors started swirling that Dinklage died in a car accident. Many shared a link on Facebook with a photo of Dinlage and the headline "Game of Thrones Actor Peter Dinklage Killed in car accident" by "googonline." However when you click on the link, it takes you to a fakeshare website that says "This is a prank. You Got Owned!"

"SOMEONE STARTED A HOAX THAT PETER DINKLAGE DIED IN A CAR ACCIDENT MY HEART UGH."

"@Peter_Dinklage Welcome to the Paul McCartney club dude cause people think you're dead"
