Some people with a morbid sense of humor flooded the Internet this weekend with false reports that the "Jersey Shore" star kicked the bucket. But according to a rep -- who spoke to Snooki this morning -- she's alive and probably drinking somewhere right now.
Snook's FB page is now swamped with condolence messages ... mixed in with a few notes from people who can spot a fake story when they see one.
The poof lives on.
