The kicker is that these Wix sites are mocked up to resemble various premium social media fan sites, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loyalfans.com\/creators\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.loyalfans.com\/creators&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1638465556413000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2AKncwgJummorLp9UvJQdf\">Loyalfans.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were getting multiple messages a day from irate people with no connection to the adult industry accusing Loyalfans of hosting scam accounts,\u201d explained Loyalfans\u2019 Support Manager Andrew D.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThough these sites all clearly said \u2018wixsite\u2019 in their URLs, it was alarming to see how many people actually thought these were Loyalfans accounts,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe did our best to explain the situation to anyone who contacted us and directed them to contact Wix to get the scam sites taken down, but the problem continued to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Loyalfans\u2019 social media team began tagging the site-building platform directly in its responses to scam victims that made public queries, which eventually led to a meeting with the Head of Wix\u2019s Policy Team\/Product &amp; Privacy Counsel.<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, representatives from Loyalfans and Wix discussed reactive &#8212; as well as proactive &#8212; measures Wix is currently taking to help stop the flood of fraudulent activity. Loyalfans offered Wix several additional strategies the site-building platform could take to help find and take down fraudulent pages. Both parties left the meeting with open lines of communication, as well as a commitment from Wix to continue to combat the issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemonizing the adult industry is a knee jerk reaction for most &#8212; and in this case, people clearly do not know the difference between legitimate platforms and egregious scams,\u201d Andrew D. explained. \u201cAnd although the individuals victimized here are not necessarily members of our community, proactively dealing with phishing scams like these is important to the industry overall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy combating these fraudulent activities and doing outreach to mainstream companies, we help protect our own community from false narratives, petty attacks, and further regulations &#8212; thus protecting Loyalfans creators\u2019 workplace and livelihoods,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>If you find fraudulent content on a site hosted by Wix, reach out to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:abuse@wix.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">abuse@wix.com<\/a>\u00a0to begin the takedown process.
