Removing Fake Escort Pictures

The online escort market is very diverse and the websites for independents and agencies provide a resource for people to search services / escorts. The majority showcase portfolio online galleries with many images taken in different locations, poses and attire. Some agencies and independents have been outed as using fake pictures. So the lady in the picture is often a model where the picture has been stolen and used to showcase a fake person. How many escorts and agencies that do it is an uncertain figure, but it comes to a stage where many models have been forced to do all they can to get their pictures removed. This can be quite distressing for the lady in question as they don't want to be misrepresented and certainly in the forum of the escort market, which many see as taboo. These people are engaging in copyright infringement. So are libel to be held accountable and in most severe circumstances sued.

So many new escort directories have been created and in 2023 there has not been a year where there has been more directories online. The problem is that there are many unscrupulous directories who steal escort listings from other websites. So if they steal information from a website who has used fake pictures, then they will end up displaying those fake pictures again. So after a year one fake picture on one website could appear on over 100 directories. So just imagine if you are a published model who manages to get one website to remove your picture. Only to subsequently find that your picture is now on 100 more websites. The amount of stress it causes people can be devastating. It is up to escort service providers to put images in reverse search on major search engines. That is one way to determine if somebody is approaching them with fake pictures.

The Dishonest Escort

For whatever reason an escort may steal somebody else picture to pass it off as their own. Some do it to keep their own identity hidden. Others may not feel they are attractive enough and want to find a picture of a lady who is. The remainder can not be bothered to get professional pictures of themselves taken and it is easier and fa more cheaper to steal others. When it comes to agency escorts, some approach the agency with fake pictures. Agencies need to have good policies in place to very the authenticity of the picture. If they put the image on their website then they will be held accountable at the end of the day for copyright infringement. So if in doubt, do not use the picture on your website.

Escorts Are Also Affected

It is not just published models that get their pictures stolen and used. Other escorts find out people / websites have stolen their pictures. So somebody is making money off pictures they have paid for. In escort forums and message boards this sought of bad practice is often flagged and highlighted. In most cases after a few e-mails the picture is removed as the website in question doesn't want the hassle of a DCMA notice which will effect them. Some escorts go to the effort of paying for a professional photographer to create a portfolio for them. Then some other escort steals their pictures from a website, crops it a bit and then passes that picture of as themselves. The reality is some escorts pay hundreds or even thousands of pounds for professional photos.

Escort Agencies Need To Do More

It is the best interest for escort agencies to remove any fake escort pictures they find on their website. Firstly, any clientele looking to book an escort with them will realise that the escort they have booked does not match the picture. So in terms of reputation and being a reputable agency, they will not be trusted if they put fake pictures on their websites. Especially if those pictures are of famous people. Secondly, it has to be questioned how fake pictures were put on their website in the first place. Trustworthy escort agencies meet new prospective escorts in person and the process should be professional/thorough. the fact they did not check the pictures should indicate that they are not professional and clients should not book escorts they feature.

If you have a website and suspect that there are fake escort pictures on them, then do the right thing - remove them immediately.
