Someone made an intimate deepfake of you. Let’s talk about getting it removed.

It’s fabricated. That’s the most important fact.

AI tools generate explicit images that look real but never happened. The body isn’t yours. The act never occurred. Knowing that doesn’t make the fear smaller tonight — but it changes what the law and the platforms can do about it, because non-consensual fabricated intimate images can be treated the same as real ones under the rules that apply.

You don’t have to prove the image is fake to start a review. You don’t have to identify who made it. A serious review acts on the accountable surface and search visibility — not on you.

What you can do now.

You do not need a complete report before asking for help. Take a moment to keep yourself safe, then tell us what happened.

1. Don’t engage — and don’t pay.

   Don’t reply to whoever sent or posted it. Paying does not guarantee the threats stop and may lead to further demands. Preserve the evidence before deleting anything.

2. Save the evidence — don’t spread it.

   Keep a private note of what happened. Don’t forward or repost the image itself — a minimal private summary is enough for a first read.

3. Get a professional read.

   Start with a short description. A specialist confirms fit, the written scope, and the price. If you accept, they send a secure Stripe link. No card is taken at this step.

Covered platforms have a 48-hour obligation after a valid request.

Threatening to publish, or publishing, non-consensual intimate images — including AI deepfakes — is a federal matter under the TAKE IT DOWN Act. Covered platforms must act within 48 hours after receiving a valid request where the Act applies. This is a platform obligation, not an AboutUs turnaround guarantee, and eligibility varies. A specialist can review the boundary without pulling the sensitive file into commercial intake.

If the same image keeps reappearing, the next-step record belongs in the client record, not on the public page. Search de-listing is a fallback when an image cannot yet be deleted at the source — never a substitute for taking it down.

“It is not even real” is not the argument people think it is.

Almost everyone arrives expecting the fake part to make this simpler: it never happened, so surely it comes straight down. In practice it cuts both ways. You cannot use the route that fits a real leaked photo, because you do not own the image and nobody took it of you. What you have instead is your face and your name, and the rules that protect those are the ones worth aiming at.

You do not have to prove it is synthetic. That is the part most people spend their energy on, and it is the part that matters least — the rules above turn on whether an identifiable person consented, not on how the file was made. Naming yourself in the image and pointing at the right rule moves further than any analysis of the pixels.

Generated content also has a source most leaks do not: the app or model host that produced it, and any account reselling the output. Those are separate targets with separate rules, and whether they are realistically reachable in your case is something the written boundary says before you authorize work, not after.

Honest about results.

We don’t make guarantees, and we won’t pretend a fallback is a removal. Our core work is results-based: for eligible cases we accept, the terms — including the written item, intended outcome, search-exposure limits if any, and refund term — are defined in your written service agreement. We tell you up front what’s realistically removable and what isn’t. We’re a removal agency, not a law firm; if your situation needs a lawyer, we’ll say so and coordinate or refer. The public page shows the boundary; the AboutUs client record contains the written boundary, client updates, and outcome labels.

REPRESENTATIVE SCENARIO — composite of typical engagements, anonymized. Individual results vary; eligibility and any results-based terms are defined in your written service agreement.

Fabricated explicit images built from public photos surface on a public page and spread through reposts. The source context, receipts, and search exposure are documented privately; the case record stays inside the client record, with source status and search fallback labeled plainly.
