Yep, she's not the only one. I used to be best friend with one who is not only pathological liar, but manipulator and scammer too. Sadly, most of her "friends" (or should we call victim), still believe her. I hope they realize soon, especially the ones who she scammed a lot.
I did some research when I investigate her. You can read these for reference whether it is disorder or not:
What is Compulsive Lying Disorder? | Compulsive Lying Disorder

Another traits that I realize, they're quite forgetful. Today they said Sally slept with Jimmy, the next day they said Sally is virgin whose Daddy will keep her locked in his castle to protect her with his shotgun. Just ask for evidence or ask Jimmy and Sally for the confirmation. It's amusing to see them try to cover their lies.

Disagree. The one I know told unbelievable bizarre tales. One of her stories about her house inhabited by ghost of little violinist who murdered after being kept in vacuum room. Every Thursday night the ghost will play sad violin song which made her cry.
