Leaks are a nightmare for any OnlyFans creator. You put in the time, energy, and creativity to build your content and brand, only to see your work show up for free on shady websites or Telegram channels. It’s not just frustrating—it can hurt your income, damage your privacy, and drain your motivation. But the good news? You’re not powerless. You can remove leaked OnlyFans content and protect yourself better in the future. Let’s walk you through the most effective way to fight back.
What Counts as an OnlyFans Leak?
Leaks are unauthorized copies of your paid content being distributed or sold elsewhere. It doesn’t matter if someone screen-recorded your video, ripped it from a subscription, or reposted your photos. If you didn’t agree to it, it’s a violation.
These leaks usually show up on:
- Torrent platforms
- Google image/video search
- Reddit threads or forums
- Telegram groups
- Clone sites with stolen content
Whether you show your face or not, it’s your property. And yes, you have legal rights to get it removed—even if you feel like the internet is working against you.
First Steps: Identify and Document the Leak
Before you rush into battle, pause and gather proof. If your content is being shared without your permission, take the following steps:
- Take screenshots and screen recordings of the platform, the post, the username, and the URL.
- Save the exact link to where your content appears. This will be critical for takedown forms.
- Avoid engaging with the uploader. Don’t comment or message them directly. It alerts them, and they may just move the content elsewhere.
This might feel tedious, but it's your strongest weapon when filing takedown requests.
Use DMCA Takedowns To Remove Leaked Content
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) gives you the right to request the removal of your stolen content from websites and search engines. Here’s how to do it step-by-step:
- Visit the website that’s hosting your content. Most platforms have a DMCA or copyright contact email/link in the footer or legal section.
- Fill out a DMCA takedown notice. You can use this step-by-step guide to filing a DMCA as an OnlyFans creator.
- Repeat the process for each platform where your content is showing up.
- Submit a DMCA request to Google if your leaked content appears in search results. This helps to stop casual viewers from stumbling across it.
It’s not instant, but it works. And if you’re persistent, most hosting sites comply within a few days.

Use Content Protection Services
If you’re dealing with mass leaking or constant reposting, manual takedowns won’t be enough. This is where automated content protection tools come in. They scan the web 24/7 for stolen content and file DMCA notices on your behalf.
At PhoeniX Creators, we use dedicated tracking systems and human moderation to monitor and remove stolen content for our creators. Our internal systems are tailored to catch early signs of reposting before it gets out of hand.
Working with an OnlyFans agency doesn’t just help you grow your income. It also means your content and legal rights are protected professionally—without spending your nights sending takedown emails.
Prevent Leaks Before They Happen
Now let’s talk prevention. You won’t stop every leak, but you can make it much harder for people to steal and share your work.
Add watermarks
Always watermark your content—photos and videos. Add your username or stage name subtly in a corner. This makes it traceable and discourages reposting. If your content pops up somewhere, you’ll know it’s yours.
Create paywalled value
The full experience should stay on OnlyFans. Chatting, personalization, reactions—none of that leaks. Even if someone gets your video, they won’t get the interaction. Build a brand around personality, not just pictures. Need help with that? Start here: The Ultimate Guide to OnlyFans Chatting
Avoid mass-download offers
Never sell full folders of content. Keep each sale tied to an account or message thread. Big zip folders are easy to reupload and leak.
Monitor where you promote
If you’re promoting your OnlyFans on public platforms, be mindful of how you tease content. Don’t share full previews or uncropped clips. Want ideas for safe promo? This article on promoting OnlyFans on Instagram is a solid starting point.
Dealing With Telegram and Discord Leaks
Telegram is notorious for content leaks. Private groups with thousands of stolen posts are common, and many creators struggle to get content removed from there. Here's how to handle it:
- Search for your name/username regularly on Telegram using public group search tools.
- Report the channel to Telegram with screenshots and proof of your ownership.
- Use third-party DMCA agents to file repeated reports and put pressure on the channel moderators.
Same logic applies to Discord servers. Document the leak, report it via Discord’s Trust & Safety page, and keep filing. It’s boring, but consistent action usually gets results.

What To Do If Your Face Is In The Leak
If you show your face and your content has been leaked, the emotional impact can hit even harder. This isn’t just about money anymore—it’s about privacy.
Here are a few extra tips:
- Use reverse image search to track where your face appears online.
- File removal requests to image boards, adult sites, and Google Images.
- If the content is also in violation of platform policies (e.g., revenge content or doxxing), report it for harassment.

And if you’re a faceless creator? Don’t think you’re off the hook. Your content can still be used or manipulated in ways you don’t approve of. It’s just as important to take action.
Should You Go Public About a Leak?
Sometimes creators wonder whether to speak up or stay silent when content gets leaked. The short answer: it depends.
Going public can rally support from your fans. But it can also trigger more downloads if you're not careful. If you do post about it:
- Don’t share the actual leaked content.
- Focus on raising awareness and asking fans to report links.
- Keep the tone professional and direct, not emotional.
Or skip the drama and let your agency handle it quietly. That’s what we do for our creators—fight the fights in the background so you can focus on creating.
Recap: Stop Leaks, Stay in Control
Let’s wrap up with the most important actions you can take:
- Document everything with screenshots and URLs.

- Watermark your content.
- Avoid bundling or sharing full sets.
