Frequently asked questions

The person says they will post more unless I pay. Should I pay?

Do not pay. Payment does not stop the threats and typically invites escalation. Report to law enforcement and use ScanErase to find any content already posted.

The scammer used a fake identity. Can I still take action against the platforms?

Yes. You can still find where your face appears on platforms, regardless of the identity used by the scammer.
