Earlier, someone posted a link to a video where they reproduce a fake messenger conversation with Alefantis.
Here's the thing. Above the Facebook chat box, there are a few icons. When you message someone on Facebook who isn't your friend, the video and audio icons are greyed out, because you can't video call or audio call people who aren't your friends. The icons look like they look in the "faking" video. In the "verification" video, guess what? The icons are not greyed out. For some reason, he can start a video or audio call with this guy who is not his friend (and clearly has pretty high privacy settings).
Try it out yourself. Open a chat box with a friend and a stranger on Facebook. Notice the difference.
He's edited a chat he had with a friend using the method described in the video. He's taking you for a ride. Don't fall for it.

Nice job, i should have seen this earlier but couldn't watch the video at work. That just about does it, this one is debunked.edit: tested this on my phone, you're actually wrong. Once somebody has accepted your message request you can call them. Even without being friends. Try it. I will post a screebshot when i get to my pc.Throwaway24398021 ago
You sure? Facebook themselves say otherwise.

Yes check out this screenshot I just took of this dude who was jealous I was speaking to his girlfriend, note it says "you and aaron aren't connected on facebook" because we are not friends. Once I replied to his message I got a notification to tell me 'you accepted aarons message request' and now I am able to phone him.

Ahhh, ok. Looks like Facebook's policy page is out of date.

We should still be suspicious though, I think we all just want to believe.

That's true but seeing as how every other conspiracy has come true why not this one. The kid made some mistakes but I hope and think his heart is in the right place and he really has contacted JA.
It does seem like even more legit evidence that these people wouldn't want out. A sketchy as museum of nothing owned by JA? this shit keeps getting crazier and crazier.

Can you show it on computer? Hmm I'm seeing the icon but it's slightly greeted out and says so and so is unavailable for calls when you mouse over it. But I'm not sure if that user can do video calls maybe they have it disabled or something. I would like to confirm if this is true for sure.

http://i.imgur.com/AcCJTyC.png Here you go, it even says 'start a video call' when you hover over it. You must message eachother first before it becomes available.

Thanks, so then the claim to have spoken with jimmycomet is not debunked.
