Leaks are unfortunately one of the dark sides of content creation. If you have OnlyFans videos that have been leaked without your consent, you're not alone, and you're not powerless. While it feels invasive and frustrating, there are clear, actionable steps you can take to fight back and protect your work. Here's exactly how to remove leaked OnlyFans videos and prevent future leaks from damaging your brand or peace of mind.
What Counts As Leaked Content?
Leaked content is anything from your OnlyFans that ends up online or shared elsewhere without your permission. This can include full-length videos, short clips, screenshots, or even promotional teasers that were meant to stay within your paywall.
Some leaks happen via screen recordings, others through fake subscribers, and occasionally by people you once trusted. Whether your content shows up on Telegram groups, random adult sites, or Reddit forums, it’s considered stolen. And you have the right to fight back.
Step 1: Stay Calm And Start With Evidence
Before you rush into action, you need a solid paper trail. Evidence is your weapon here. Start by gathering everything that proves your content was stolen and where it ended up.
-
Take full-screen screenshots of the leaked content showing the platform, the URL, usernames if available, and timestamps.
-
Record your screen if it’s a video or gif, especially if the site hosting it is known to remove content fast.
-
Note down where the content is hosted. Is it on a known adult tube site? A file-sharing site? A forum?
Having all of this documented makes the takedown process much more effective. It also makes it easier for our team at PhoeniX Creators to support you. We offer leak detection and evidence collection assistance to every creator we manage.
Step 2: File A DMCA Takedown Request
Once you've gathered the evidence, it's time to hit them where it hurts—legally. The DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) allows you to file an official complaint to remove your stolen content.
You can follow our step-by-step breakdown in How To File A DMCA Takedown As OnlyFans Creator, but here’s the core of what it includes:
-
Identify the original content and the date you created or uploaded it
-
List the URLs where the stolen content is published
-
Sign a statement claiming your ownership
-
Send it to the hosting platform’s DMCA contact address or form

Step 3: Report It To The Hosting Platform
Filing a DMCA notice is only the start. To increase your chances of a quick takedown, you should also report the content directly to the hosting site.
-
Go to the site where the leak is posted
-
Look for "report," "DMCA," or "copyright infringement" links (usually in the footer)
-
Submit your complaint with the screenshots and links
Step 4: Use Content Protection Tools
Some creators use AI-powered scanning tools that scour the web 24/7 for matches to your videos and images. These platforms automatically send takedown notices when content is found, giving you some peace of mind.
Step 5: Report To OnlyFans Support
Leaks from outside are frustrating. But when someone leaks your content from inside your fanbase? That’s even worse.
-
Go to the user’s profile on OnlyFans
-
Use the report function or contact support
-
Attach proof, including screenshots and URLs of the leak
-
Include timestamps or evidence of their purchase
Step 6: Get Proactive About Watermarking
Watermarking may feel old-school, but it's one of the simplest and most effective deterrents against content theft. A smart watermark can make your content traceable, less desirable to pirates, and easier to take down.
-
Add a faint, semi-transparent watermark with your username or logo
-
Place it in a non-croppable spot, ideally across motion-heavy areas
-
Vary the position from time to time to prevent editing hacks
Step 7: Talk To A Lawyer If It Gets Serious
If the leak is persistent or especially damaging, legal action might be necessary. This isn’t just about removing a few clips. If someone’s repeatedly uploading or profiting from your content, you might be entitled to compensation.
