Not Who You Think: Who issued the "suicide" denial message and Vanessa Bryant?

Last day, Vanessa Bryant, the wife of actor Kobe killed in a helicopter accident, reportedly put an end to her life. Today it was posted that she responded to the rumors saying: "I'm alive, don't make up nonsense." Sites around the world were quick to report this, but now it turned out to be a fake Twitter account

Many believed that Koena Bryant's widow, Vanessa Bryant, "went underground" following false reports of suicide, but now her tweet appears to have been posted from a fake Twitter account. You may notice that the Twitter account, which supposedly belongs to Lonsa, is an unverified account and lacks the "blue" mark that advertisers have in order to verify that it is an authentic account. What's more, Vanessa is maintaining a particularly active Instagram page with full authentication, followed by about 10.4 million people. It is very likely that if she wanted to post a message to thwart the rumors, she would have done so there as well. Another reason to appeal Bryant's Twitter account is that he only opened on January 30 - well after his death.

Last night on social networks was circulated a false report put on by the so-called BBC Network, according to Vanessa put an end to her life as a result of dealing with the death of her husband and daughter. According to The Report, which quickly turned out to be a particularly cruel Photoshop trick, Bryant had suffered from severe depression in recent days, had difficulty getting out of bed, and committed suicide by taking enormous painkillers.

"I'm alive! Don't make up fiction. I'll never lose because I have my daughters who need me in their lives," the Twitter account says, alongside photos of her with Kobe and Gigi. This was after rumors spread more and more in the last day. "I and my daughters want to thank the millions of people who have shown support and love at this difficult time," she noted. "Thanks for the prayers, we need each one. Enjoy every moment with your loved ones and loved ones, because you can never know when they will go from us. Pass this message on."
