The only "proof" I saw of it being a hoax was the official Fortnite account tweeting that it was a user who changed their username to Epstein's and provided no proof other than their word. So if you take them at their word, then sure I guess. Don't think that counts as proof for most though.
Unless there was some other actual proof that came out that I missed?
I thought the dude that did it had confessed. Or maybe I've been lied to. I must admit that "Jeffery Epstein blows international covert operation to smuggle him away by playing fortnite on his old account" is not a particularly compelling or plausible narrative to me, so it's not something I've paid much attention to, or invested any time into investigating any claims about it.

This mentality is why they can get away with dragging their feet for SIX SEVEN FUCKING YEARS, and not arrest anyone, and blatantly withhold documents, and use redactions as political cover. Because people feel it's "implausible" in spite of all the other fuckery they've witnessed.
