How to remove a fake account impersonating you or your brand
Impersonation reports on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X and YouTube, the evidence they ask for, and what to do when fake accounts are used for fraud.
Fake accounts can scam your followers, damage your reputation or run ads in your name.
Collect evidence
Username and link, screenshots of the profile, posts and any scam messages, and a link to your real account.
Report
Use each platform’s impersonation form: Instagram and Facebook, TikTok, X and YouTube. Brands should add trademark certificates and domain email to speed things up.
When it is fraud
Warn your followers, keep the evidence and consider a criminal complaint with a lawyer.
We monitor, report and track fake accounts end to end.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to upload my ID?
Only through the platform's official report form. Never send ID or passwords to 'support' accounts that message you.
