Fake Model or Influencer Scam

The scammer uses a real model or influencer's public photos to build an attractive fake profile, relying on the volume of available high-quality images to sustain the deception across multiple platforms.

• Uses professionally shot photos with little casual or candid content
• Very few casual, low-quality, or candid photos exist
• Reverse image search surfaces the same photos under a different name
• Claims to be "between platforms" or temporarily inactive on their real accounts
• Avoids live video despite an apparently active public presence
• Engagement (likes/comments) on their posts looks unusually low for the claimed following
