Back in the 1980s, a trove of documents pertaining to Majestic-12 began circulating around, leading to suggestions that the group had been set up in 1947 by U.S. President Harry S. Truman.

The entire thing was later declared to be a hoax by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, yet rumors continue to persist, with some still believing that Majestic-12 was in fact the real deal.

Recently, new claims began to circulate suggesting that correlations have been discovered between the file numbers and administrative stamps on the original documents and genuine CIA case files from the 1940s and 1950s that have since been declassified and released to the public.

Trouble is, the investigator who came to this conclusion has decided to remain anonymous.According to reports, the only connection to him is UFO researcher Ryan Wood who provided physical copies of the original Majestic-12 files from the 1980s.

"He's doing a great job," Wood told The Daily Mail.

"He's digging in the right spots and doing a good job of the historical research. It's definitely on point and logical, fair and highly credible."

As things stand, even if there are file numbers and stamps in the Majestic-12 files which match those of genuine CIA documents, it doesn't mean that those files and what's claimed inside them are real.

We still also lack any other tangible evidence that might help to prove their legitimacy.
