OnlyFans sensation Layla Kelly has sounded the alarm over a disturbing new catfishing trend plaguing adult content creators. Fake female profiles, often backed by stolen images, are targeting stars to extract free content. Kelly warns it is not just unethical, it is illegal, unsettling, and seriously violating personal boundaries online.
If you thought the internet had already hit peak weird, think again. OnlyFans creator Layla Kelly has just dropped the curtain on a “creepy” new trend sweeping the adult content scene, and it is making creators everywhere side-eye their inboxes. The rising wave of catfish accounts, men pretending to be women to gain deeper access—has exploded in recent months, leaving many stars feeling cornered and grossed out.
The catfish are out in full force, and it is getting messy Kelly, New Zealand’s biggest OnlyFans name, says she is constantly bombarded with fake female profiles trying to trick her into more intimate interactions. But the most disturbing part? These men are allegedly stealing real women’s images, often nude, without their consent just to keep up the charade.
Consent matters, guys, and no, that is not optional Layla took to social media recently to vent about the unsettling tactics she’s seen. She recounted an incident where a man sent her a wedding photo paired with a driving licence, clearly not his own—and she strongly suspects the images belonged to a wife or sister. She expressed deep concern for these women, who likely have no clue their faces (and bodies) are being dragged into this digital catfish circus.
Kelly said she always asks for proof when something feels off, but unsurprisingly, no one ever provides it. She also reminded her followers that using someone else’s photos on platforms like OnlyFans is not just shady, it is against the terms of service and straight-up illegal in both New Zealand and Australia. Not-so-smart tricks: “Mandy” and the medical kink mayhem Former adult creator and now marketing maven Lucy Banks also chimed in with her own war stories. She shared how fake female accounts would try to fish for free content under the guise of surgery queries—like asking for breast photos as “inspiration.” Others carried stranger fetishes, pretending to be women seeking graphic descriptions of medical procedures.
But Banks, like Kelly, said these impersonators are never as slick as they think. “They give themselves away fast,” she noted, explaining how certain phrases, especially bizarre, hyper-sexualised ones, just scream “not a woman.”
Both women agreed this is not a rare issue, it is happening all the time. Kelly even speculated that the motivation lies in chasing “special attention” by playing pretend. But her final word was sharp: If you are misusing someone else’s images or identity for this? It is not cheeky or clever, it is illegal. Stop.
