Netizens expressed outrage over the insensitive actions of the creators of the false accounts, especially one named after EunB, which posted, "Everyone, I'm alive," along with a selfie of the girl group.

The owner of the false account also posted a picture of EunB's memorial altar, writing 'This picture is all a lie.'

Fans and other supporters bashed these posts, saying the owner of the account has crossed the line. They demanded that the culprit be found and punished.

"There are things to joke about and things you shouldn't joke about. This isn't something to joke about," one netizen wrote.

Meantime, the girl group's agency, Polaris, continued to issue media updates on the accident that claimed the life of EunB and left members RiSe and Sojung in critical condition.

According to their latest statement, the car that was carrying the group when they met an accident was from a car rental service, and was not their usual service vehicle. The agency admitted that they changed the group's usual service vehicle when they went on a promotional trip to Daegu due to problems.

The agency added that the driver of the ill-fated car was not a new personnel, has been with their company for years, and has never figured in any road mishap prior to the September 3  accident.

Other Ladies' Code members, Ashley and Zuny, are said to be receiving treatment for shock and minor injuries.

Sojung, on the other hand, has reportedly stabilized, while RiSe's surgery had to be delayed due to her swollen brain and low blood pressure. Both are still unaware that EunB has died.

EunB's funeral is set to take place today, September 5, 2014.
