BRAND PROTECTION FOR THE STARS
ABOUT CELEBPROTECT
CelebProtect was born in 2020 from the increasing popularity of the Social Media Celebrity. Cybercriminals and other malicious threat actors are turning to social media as a simple method of social engineering for a variety of illegal and malicious purposes. Such fake accounts can be up and running in very little time, and an appealing offer, made from an imposter social media account, can create heavy traffic, and severe brand damage, very quickly.
Fake social media profiles are used to:
Impersonate the Celebrity/VIP and illegally pretend to be them.
Gain followers from unsuspecting fans who think they are following the real Celebrity.
Connect with the victim’s audience and followers.
Obtain information from followers illegally, thinking they are engaged with the actual Celebrity.
Extort money from the victim’s audience illegally.
Deliberately damage the image , reputation and brand of the Celebrity being impersonated.

Over the years I’ve had several problems with people impersonating me and contacting my fans. These fake accounts ask for money or information…and frankly it pisses me off that anybody would do this to the amazing fans who support me. So I found CelebProtect to look into this and discovered there was OVER 1200 fake accounts and this didn’t include fan accounts! Having them on board to detect, monitor and takedown fake accounts gives me peace of mind, protection for my fans and security for my own personal brand.

As an athlete I use my social media platforms to engage with fans and promote the generous sponsors who have continuously supported me. Sadly there are people out there creating fake social media accounts mis-representing my brand and what I believe in, and connecting with fans pretending to be me.….. Fortunately CelebProtect is the perfect insurance to protect against that.

I find in my industry it’s flattering to be followed and have people inspired by how I look and take care of myself, but when people abuse this and use your name and image to outright impersonate you that crosses the line, and it continues to be a major problem. The risk with online impersonation is huge, and for me I have worked too hard to build my brand, so finding someone who can take care of this for me was such a large weight off my shoulders. CelebProtect found and has taken down nearly 100 Fake online Social Media accounts and continues to find new ones everyday. Scammers beware!
Crystal Hefner
I feel surprised and unnerved realizing how many fake accounts were floating around the internet impersonating me. I’m really grateful to not only have it brought to my attention but to have something actually be done about it by having them all removed by CelebProtect.

If anybody knows what it’s like to be a victim of cyber crimes it’s me, and I knew if I was gonna combat all the digital pirates (not the Baseball team) and trolls responsible for hacking my film and distributing it illegally, I needed the best in the world, so I was gonna fly all the way to Australia to meet the owner, but unfortunately due to COVID I had to accept a conference call, but they couldn’t have come along at a better time, i was in panic mode and as soon as I saw them in action I felt relief. Having Celeb Protect made me feel safer, like I suddenly had a batt to swing at all the balls they were throwing at me (The Pirates).

Knowing people are pretending to be you and your family online is quite scary given the risks involved with this!

The CelebProtect service finds the fake stuff, they assess and they takedown any fake accounts or articles where our brand is being impersonated or misrepresented without authorisation. Massive help to us to keep doing what we love doing and not get slammed by fake stuff.
