Fake account detection and removal that keeps pace with attackers

Social media abuse is increasingly AI-driven: fake profiles, deepfake promos, and scam DMs generated faster than manual monitoring can handle. Our AI identifies impersonation as it appears and drives takedowns before followers engage. You see confirmed threats, not alert noise.

Detect fake accounts as they go live, not after they've built followings

We monitor continuously across every major social network. AI-powered discovery flags impersonation accounts, fraudulent profiles, and deepfake content as they appear. You catch threats before they accumulate followers, victims, or media attention.

Human validation separates real threats from noise

Not every brand mention is abuse. Analysts investigate flagged content, filter false positives, and confirm scams and impersonation before action. You see what’s real, not raw alert volume.

Takedowns completed with proof of resolution

We file with platforms, escalate stalled cases through established relationships, and confirm completion. You get documentation showing what was removed and when, ready for audit, legal, or executive review without chasing down evidence yourself.

Coverage across the platforms attackers actually use

Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, Reddit, Telegram, WhatsApp, Bluesky, and emerging platforms. Coverage adapts as attackers shift tactics. You don’t have to worry about gaps as new platforms emerge.

A managed service, not another platform to run

Other vendors surface threats and hand you the problem. We eliminate them. Our team handles detection, validation,
and takedown end-to-end. You get results and documentation, not a queue to manage.

How fake account detection and removal works

Impersonation spreads through engagement. As our AI identifies fake accounts, we also uncover connected websites, apps, and payment flows. A single investigation can dismantle an entire campaign.

Detect

AI-powered discovery finds fake profiles impersonating your brand, then pulls in related links, apps, and contact details pointing to the broader operation.

Validate

Analysts review context and connected assets to confirm malicious intent, filtering false positives and building a clear picture of the campaign.

Eliminate

We work takedowns directly with platforms and hosts, tracking linked assets together so campaigns go dark, not just individual accounts.

Persist

Monitor for respins using shared infrastructure and recurring patterns to surface new accounts before they scale.
