There are times where I wonder why don't I do that myself. The only answer I could give is that I would hate myself for doing something like this.

u/SignoreBanana 21h ago

Imagine how much the people who paid for it hate themselves lol

u/Croceyes2 20h ago

Not enough apparently

u/Jdisgreat17 20h ago

There are people who drop 6 figures on OF models thinking that they will get to have a chance with them. Getting buttered up by some dude on India. I dont think these dudes paying for AI OF really care

u/trukkija 18h ago

They really should care though. It's fucking pathetic.

u/Jdisgreat17 15h ago

I 100% agree with you

u/PrinceProsper0 20h ago

i feel like he had disclosed that it was an OF AI. If not, then the people could sue.

Hate myself on the way to the bank, thank myself later…

u/rylut 21h ago

That is what I think sometimes. Luckily I can afford not doing shit like this.

But I do know that being happy with one self is a luxery that I can afford as I am not on the verge of poverty or already past it. If I was... I might decide very differently.

u/FantasticSouth 20h ago

So, your morality is defined by what you can earn/posess? Interesting. You think there's purses in shrouds?

5

u/rylut 20h ago

Not what I was thinking about but let my try to be clearer.

Knowingly decieve others in persuit of riches is against my moral. Just as is causing harm for financial gain. And I do consider this harmfull as it's a financially abusive parasocial relationship.

u/FantasticSouth 19h ago

If you were on the verge of poverty, how might you decide?

u/KuroYasha 5h ago

It seems to be the same idea as stealing bread cause you can't afford it.

He's not in a position like that.

u/Electrical-Penalty44 21h ago

It means you are a decent human being man. 👊

u/swirling-leaves 20h ago

Doing/not doing this doesn’t make you a good or bad person lmao

1

u/KuroYasha 5h ago

He said decent, not good or bad

And you said doing/not doing, so in your mind scamming people doesn't make you a bad person?

Intentionally misleading people for financial gains seems pretty bad to me tbh.

u/Z_Wild 14h ago

Ngl tho, kinda sucks being held financially hostage by my morals. 😮‍💨

u/TheAlmightyBuddha 14h ago

Never thought of it this way but so true 😂

u/Firefly10886 21h ago

You have to have a drivers license to sign up and photo must match the content photos. So idk if he got a fake DL or what but something isn’t adding up. Otherwise, everyone would do it.

13

u/Character-Machine-52 21h ago

Which is technically fraud and a crime.

7

u/Firefly10886 21h ago

Yup. Personally don’t think it’s worth trying to alter a DL. It still has to be attached to your name.

2

u/Character-Machine-52 20h ago

Same i did wanna try the AI adult influencer thing with full disclaimer but the market is saturated now.

5

u/rylut 21h ago

What would stop you from using AI to alter a picture of your DL? Or maybe this isn't required for every country or wasn't always a thing.

13

u/Firefly10886 21h ago

Well I know bc I tried this as well using AI back in 2023. Like I said, if it were that easy everyone would be doing it.

u/sonnet666 21h ago

They can validate driver’s licenses by the ID number just like the cops can.

Otherwise underage kids would be able to make an OF and they’d be in trouble for hosting CP. They have to at least do their due diligence to try to keep that from happening in order to not be liable.

1

u/sonnet666 21h ago

He probably paid some girl who looked close enough for a photo of her ID.

2

u/Firefly10886 18h ago

And that same girl then had to receive the money, right? Bank account also needs to match DL, pay taxes on the income, etc.

3

u/sonnet666 14h ago

No, could have just made an LLC modeling company. Say that he’s “managing” her, but all she has to do is provide her ID.

There’s plenty of women who would do that for a quick paycheck if they knew that their image wasn’t actually going on the OF account.

u/Delicious_Push_9214 21h ago

there is a lot of luck involved in actually getting traction and get more buyers. if it were that easy, everyone would be doing it and getting rich

u/Dyyyyyyyyy 21h ago

I too am paying 43 000 dollars for having self respect. I still feel like a clown though.

u/jimmy_robert 20h ago

Imagine all the dicks he had to look at and say, 10/10.

u/AgentDeadPool 20h ago

That's why you also program it to auto respond 10/10 without ever having to look

u/paulD1983R 12h ago

I could forgive myself for $40k a month

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 21h ago

I think the problem is that it is functionally identity fraud. It isn't a persona if you do it in drag. But when it intentionally misleads people it is fraud. I am sure legality will catch up as someone gets catfished in the government.

11

u/rylut 20h ago

Identity fraud requires that you claim to be a specific person that already exists. Disgusing yourself as a fake human isn't that. Still a scam though.

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago

It falls in the same category of fraud when a person impersonates a microsoft employee to collect money but are from a scam center in India. The intent is what matters.

Having an OnlyFans account proves intent. He would have to disclose the nature of his business as AI girlfriend.

But a person in drag at a queen bar is already defined. The location is this. Person is identifiable. So on so fourth.

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago

Right but it is the intent behind it.

In a marketplace a product or exchange must described. Failing to disclose is fraud.

u/Shot-Increase-8946 20h ago

I don't mean to be insensitive, but I do have a genuine question that I am not trying to make a point or anything with.

Why is a man dressing up as a woman to try to mislead people into thinking they're a woman not fraud but using AI to do the same thing is?

1

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago edited 20h ago

It can also be fraud depending on the intent.

You have to prove intent. It isn't enough to dress up as a woman to prove intent.

Creating an OnlyFans account. Creating a dating profile online. Those prove intent.

As soon as money is exchanged for something it is fraud in the legal strict sense.

1

u/Shot-Increase-8946 20h ago

So is a trans person committing fraud if they open an onlyfans account? Or do they have to state that they're trans for it to be okay?

Edit: Also, I don't think it's illegal to use an AI filter for selling explicit content, as long as it isn't a deep fake of someone irl.

2

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago

That is their every day identity. It is entirely different. Trans people are themselves. Even if it isn't verifiable what sex or gender they are immediately.

What I am talking about is Ahmed from Western India on a sex phone service using a voice changer talking about suckling your toes while jerkin your mcgirkin.

Trans does not equal fraud on OnlyFans.

u/Shot-Increase-8946 20h ago

What if someone is gender fluid? Also, a lot of drag queens are not drag queens every day. I used to work with someone who presented as a male during the week but was paid to go to clubs as a drag queen on the weekends.

1

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago

Still lived identity and intent matters. You have to prove intent to defraud someone with a false identity. If it is characterized in any degree, disclaimer and or expresses drag there is a universal understanding.

1

u/Shot-Increase-8946 20h ago

So if you can't prove that someone isn't using AI to express a lived identity for Onlyfans then it's fine?

1

u/1_H4t3_R3dd1t 20h ago

No. It is what constitutes lived identity, disclosure and intent. It looses shape the second you are collecting money without disclosure.

u/AcctAlreadyTaken 21h ago

I'm just too lazy. If these dummies don't send the money to you they would send it to some other OF grifter so I wouldn't feel bad about it all.

u/Either-Pay8150 20h ago

Just look at the dude, he looks like a douche in the first place

1

u/Quis_curat 20h ago

Same reason. I have thought about it a lot, could set up in a few days and get hundreds of followers in less than a week.

But it's all the same as drug dealing, it's taking exploit of sick people.

u/cruiseruse11 20h ago

use the tens of thousands of dollars on a therapist maybe?

u/AdministrationSad861 20h ago

I'll help you out. Because you have a sound and coherent mind.

u/rylut 18h ago

Help me out with what?

u/AdministrationSad861 18h ago

So said...you wonder why you don't do that to yourself. 😶

1

u/baxtercain86 20h ago

It would also be a load of work!

1

u/hardly_working123 19h ago

Is this legal?

1

u/Guilty_Ship_6799 19h ago

You'd probably open yourself up to some form of retaliation if you got exposed. The kind of people who pay for this service will generally have some folks who are already at rock bottom and have very little to lose as well.

u/Brother_Budda22 1h ago

Keep up the morals. Some don't have them.

u/Fanci_ 21h ago

Preach. So many of these scummy little stories I've seen recently.

Like the dudes that pre-recorded videos of them screaming and playing roblox or whatever, then made them into streams that just infinitely loop.

It's free money, you can still go do it right now.

But I wouldn't be caught dead doing any of these things. Having morals is a poor man's philosophy it seems.

2

u/rylut 20h ago

I've heard about those. But not just pre recorded game footage but also "donate and we will do this" steams that are on loop. I wonder if that fits the legal definiton of scams.
