After a detailed report surfaced on Dec. 21 about Paul Walker faking his death, the late actor's brother slammed the hoax and called it "disrespectful."

The false rumors were too much for Cody Walker to remain silent about. He shared a link to a hoax report on his Facebook page Dec. 28 preceded by a post that read, "So Disrespectful. This media is so cruel. Please Let My Brother Rest In Peace."

Fans of Cody were quick to come to his and his brother's aid, with one writing, "When I read this I couldn't believe what I was reading. People have no shame and no respect."

How will Director James Wan Finish Filming 'Fast & Furious 7' Without Paul Walker?

The overall reaction of the death hoax seems to be that of disgust and disbelief. Loyal fans and media outlets alike were quick to defend the honor of the movie star, who died on Nov. 30 in a fiery car crash.

One fan wrote on Twitter, "Paul Walker has passed, contrary to reports he faked his death. The media is very cruel. Please allow Paul to RIP." -@paulwalkerfan4

The report about the conspiracy theory was based on pictures of Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell's (Paul Walker's girlfriend) "suspicious" reaction after the death of her boyfriend, among other things. It also goes into detail about how the smoke at the scene of the car crashes matches pyrotechnics they use in Hollywood. The report stated the fake death "was achieved with the collaboration of the entire crew and production team of the Fast & Furious cabal in league with Universal Studios."
