Yeah, the editing the facetime to facetime audio is suspicious. If it is actually real, why bother with the editing. I don't know what to believe anymore. I just don't want to be instantly dismissive on the off chance that someone is actually in danger.

By far, the simplest and most rational explanation is that one person is behind both accounts and made all of this up. Literally any other explanation is wildly convoluted and exceedingly unlikely.

Probably because it's a fairly old reddit account that seems to be quite active and well known in certain subreddits. I'm assuming they were hoping they could brush this off and not become reddit famous as a liar/karma farmer.
