I agree with contacting the authorities, because it solved either possible event. If they are telling the truth, they get help. If they aren't telling the truth, they get highly embarrassed and most likely will not do it again.

Since these are online friends he is talking about, he'd have to contact their local police department, which may prove difficult. Finding where they live exactly might be an issue.
