Files a formal complaint with the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center documenting the AI generated NCII as a federal crime under 47 USC 223a and related statutes. The IC3 routes complaints to FBI field offices for investigation. The content was generated by SeaArt, a image generation service operating from China. Erome typically responds to NCII notices within the statutory 48 hour window. SeaArt is currently operating without major regulatory restriction, which means removal action proceeds primarily against the distribution layer.
Why this matters for SeaArt content on Erome
- Massive scale combined with limited regulatory reach makes SeaArt one of the highest volume NCII generation sources currently operating.
- Erome is a primary destination for leaked OnlyFans and other paywalled creator content. Albums can be linked from Telegram and Discord at scale, driving large traffic spikes to individual victims' content.
- SeaArt content distributed through Erome typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
- Source attribution to SeaArt is critical for report to FBI because it establishes the AI generated nature of the content, which strengthens statutory claims under 47 USC 223a regardless of whether the depicted person ever existed in unaltered form.
How AI generator removal works
What to do, step by step
-
01
Preserve evidence before any other action Capture full page screenshots with the URL bar visible, save the highest resolution copy of the content available, and document the SeaArt fingerprint indicators including seaart outputs include service metadata and use a custom upscaler that produces a recognizable detail enhancement signature. Full evidence package from the platform takedown including URLs and screenshots
-
02
Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms SeaArt content distributed on Erome rarely stays there. ScanErase indexes 2.4 billion face embeddings across 200 plus platforms and identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including additional SeaArt variations.
-
03
File the IC3 complaint with full evidence File at ic3.gov with the complete evidence package. The complaint should specifically cite the SeaArt attribution and the Erome distribution. Reference the China jurisdiction of the source service to support investigation routing.

Document the SeaArt source attribution SeaArt outputs include service metadata and use a custom upscaler that produces a recognizable detail enhancement signature. This attribution evidence is critical for the legal record and supports stronger statutory claims regardless of which specific action you pursue.
-
05
Coordinate with Erome platform removal Erome accepts removal notices at abuse@erome.com and through its DMCA contact. The platform processes notices manually and requires the album URL plus identification of the affected images.
-
06
File the complete evidence record for the legal track 47 USC 223a as the underlying federal NCII statute provides the foundational legal basis for this action. Document every notice sent, every platform response, and every confirmation in a single evidence file. ScanErase produces this Verified Removal Package automatically as your case progresses.
Legal context
- 47 USC 223a as the underlying federal NCII statute
- 18 USC 875 for interstate threat communications when sextortion is involved
- Erome's user count places it within the covered platform threshold. The platform has historically been slower to comply, which makes parallel filing with Cloudflare and the FTC essential for fast removal.
- SeaArt attribution: Chinese operator jurisdiction limits direct legal correspondence. App store policy reports and platform redistribution removal under 47 USC 223a are operative levers.
Frequently asked questions
Does it matter that the image was AI generated and not a real photograph of me?
47 USC 223a explicitly covers AI generated and digitally altered intimate imagery alongside authentic content. SeaArt attribution does not weaken your claim, it strengthens the documentation of harm under the TAKE IT DOWN Act.
What if SeaArt cannot be reached for direct legal action?
SeaArt is currently operating without major regulatory restriction, which means removal action proceeds primarily against the distribution layer. Chinese operator jurisdiction limits direct legal correspondence. App store policy reports and platform redistribution removal under 47 USC 223a are operative levers. The action you take here proceeds independently of any direct correspondence with the source generator.
How long will Erome actually take to remove the content?
Erome typically responds in approximately 48 hours when a properly formatted statutory notice is filed. ScanErase files the notice within 5 minutes of authorization and tracks compliance through your Verified Removal Package.
Will the report to FBI action reveal my identity to Erome or the perpetrator?
FBI complaint reference number, potential field office contact, and documented federal record that supports any future criminal prosecution and supports victim compensation funds. The disclosure scope is limited to what the action requires. Your scan and removal process is not disclosed to employers, family, or any third parties beyond the recipients required by the specific legal procedure.
