OnlyFans Model Targeted in Sophisticated Deepfake Impersonation Scam

An OnlyFans creator, known as Bunni, has become the victim of a disturbing new form of deepfake abuse. Unlike traditional deepfakes that place a face onto another person's body, this scam involved digitally altering Bunni's own photos to create an entirely new online persona. The impersonator, using the name "Sofa," scrubbed Bunni's defining features, like piercings and hair color, and created a fabricated identity on Reddit, complete with a fake age, location, and interests.

The "Sofa" account began by posting in innocuous subreddits before migrating to more niche and potentially exploitative communities like r/teenagersbuthot. The account used Bunni's edited photos to solicit fashion advice and even participate in attractiveness rating forums, likely to build credibility. The scam culminated in sexually suggestive posts, hinting at the sale of explicit content, potentially using Bunni's own content with the altered face.

Bunni believes the goal was to lure men into purchasing content, potentially using her own images with the altered face. While the account was eventually removed from Reddit for violating terms of service, the incident highlights the evolving threat of AI-powered impersonation. The accessibility of AI face-swapping tools makes this type of abuse increasingly easy to execute.

This case underscores the challenges content creators face in protecting their digital identities. The legal landscape surrounding this type of impersonation is complex, and the cost of pursuing legal action often outweighs the potential benefits.

BNN's Perspective: This case is a concerning example of how AI technology can be used for malicious purposes. While the "Take It Down Act" is a positive step in combating non-consensual intimate media, it doesn't fully address the complexities of identity theft and impersonation. The incident also highlights the need for platforms to be more proactive in detecting and removing this type of content, and for individuals to be aware of the potential risks associated with sharing their images online.
