The challenge was mentioned again on 3 March 2017, in the national newspapers Il Giornale and Il Messaggero. This time the challenge was described as a real Russian "game", with 50 strict rules and powerful tutors. A few days later, the suicide of a teenager in Leghorn was linked to the challenge by some newspapers, but an official declaration from the Leghorn police denies that: "It is a private tragedy, totally due to familiar reasons".

On 14 May 2017, a TV report by Le Iene about the Blue Whale on the national channel Italia 1 again linked the challenge to the suicide in Leghorn. The report showed several suicide scenes, mostly from videos on LiveLeak depicting adults unrelated to the challenge, describing the footage as evidence of teenagers playing the game. The report interviewed a schoolmate of the Leghorn teenager, two mothers of Russian girls who supposedly took part in the game, and the founder of the Russian Center for the safety of children from internet crimes. Following the report, coverage of the challenge in the Italian media increased, with many outlets describing it as real. Some published the full list of 50 rules. There was a sharp rise in Google searches for the challenge, and some panic.

Police received calls from terrified parents and teachers, and there were reports of teenagers taking part in the challenge. These included several cases of self-mutilation and attempted suicide. Most reports were considered to be false or exaggerated. Alleged participants came from all over Italy: Ravenna, Brescia and Siracusa. On the 22nd the Polizia Postale declared that they had received 40 alarms. On the 24th this number was increased to 70. On its website the Polizia Postale defines Blue Whale as "a practice that seems to possibly come from Russia" and offers advice to parents and teenagers.
