FQL user table: is_verified vs verified

Question

I assume one of these is the celebrity kind of verified and the other refers to whether a user has clicked an activation link, but can't find any official documentation aside from the following:

is_verified
bool    
Whether the user is verified

verified
bool    
Indicates whether or not Facebook has verified the user

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/user

According to this question is_verified is the celebrity kind (though the answer doesn't sound super confident about that), but if that's the case I can't find anything about verified ... e.g. if this field is false should I assume the user is more likely to be a spammer and ask to confirm their email address?

Thanks!

Answer 1

verified tells if the user did one of three things in Facebook:

1. verified a credit card
2. verified the user phone number by SMS
3. registers for mobile

Here is the documentation.

See that not necessarily the email has been verified
