HOAX: this insect, if touched can bite and infest u with a virus causing such holes etc in your skin
TRUTH: Altough this gives shivers which it is meant to but this is a Giant male bug carrying eggs which does bite but a regular type.
The photos of palm/fingers are merely photoshopped & makeup and is meant to exaggerate ‘Trypophobia’ i.e. fear from holes in skin or skull or bones as shown in movies which it has succeded
