Why this happens

OnlyFans content is leaked through subscriber screen recording, account credential theft, and bulk scraping operations. Some leak rings operate at industrial scale and target hundreds of creators per week.

Leak sites frequently use the creator's verified OnlyFans username in titles, which is unique evidence connecting the leaked content to the source account and supports OnlyFans subpoenas to identify the leaking subscriber.

Legal framework in Denmark

Straffeloven § 264d (unauthorised passing on of images of another's private affairs). Fine or imprisonment up to 6 months. Up to 3 years where aggravating circumstances exist.

Denmark prosecutes intimate image distribution under § 264d of the Criminal Code. The 2018 modernisation specifically addressed digital sharing and aggravated cases involving wide distribution carry sentences up to 3 years.

Evidence to preserve

Do not: Do not delete the original content from your OnlyFans account. The original posting establishes the copyright timeline and supports both DMCA and TAKE IT DOWN Act notices.

Five step removal process

  1. 1

    Preserve all evidence first

    Your OnlyFans subscriber list and the access dates for the leaked content. The original content with timestamps and watermarks proving original publication.

  2. 2

    File the Straffeloven § 264d criminal complaint

    Report to local police or the national cybercrime unit. Center for Digital Pædagogik can assist.

  3. 3

    Submit an erasure request under GDPR Article 17 (right to erasure) plus Databeskyttelsesloven

    Each major platform has a designated data protection contact. The request must cite the legal basis and identify the URLs. The platform has 30 days to respond. Datatilsynet accepts complaints for non compliance.

  4. 4

    Run a biometric scan to find every additional copy

    Content posted to one platform is rarely confined to one platform. ScanErase identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including mirror copies and AI generated variants.

  5. 5

    File TAKE IT DOWN Act notices for covered platforms

    Use your scan report to file the federal 48 hour notice yourself, in parallel with your domestic rights. The two regimes are cumulative, not exclusive.

Statutory citations to include in your complaint
