    CamModelProtection sending tons of fraudulent DMCA's

    Hey anyone got a contact for CamModelProtection? I just went through sending counter DMCA's these guys are sending a TON of them on behalf of Valentina Nappi, with fake information that legitimate content from Brazzers/Bangbros originates from Onlyfans.

    Shady shit.

    Anyone know what's the best way to combat these? Doing counternotifications of course but would like to go a step further to try to get these stopped.

      I usually remove content, send counter DMCA and then I put it back

      They do it automatically - parsing all the web for the names and images cause they charge per request. And I'm sure they even hit Brazzers with DMCA in the past :-D

          I’s say the first step is to contact them.

          If that fails, get a lawyer.

              We had the same and reached out. They whitelisted our domains but couldn't promise none would go through anymore.

                  Are these the same guys sending false DMCAs to NASA because a model chose the same name as their new space program?

                              yeps, DMCA Protection owns Branditscan as well


                              all three companies are notorious for sending out false DMCAs on behalf of unwitting* clients claiming their clients own content they do not. hell, sometimes the recipients of the DMCA's are the actual companies that shot the material and have legit primary ownership, or share co-ownership with the performers in the content

                              @J, hit up Grooby for more info, Steven is pretty hard core into fighting this fuckery

                              *I say unwitting because lots of performers don't really understand how affs use legit content, why would they if they're not affs themselves? even some performers who do understand it trust these companies to be legit

                              there's a financial incentive for these cos to over-DMCA, it gives them an excuse to push higher-priced packages on their clients (wow, look how much stuff we found!!!) and makes it look like they're cleansing the net of content the performer legit owns. also cuts costs by not having to use a precise and well thought-out approach to the DMCA's they send

                              I'm sorry, I consider this fucking theft. from performers, legit affs and in some cases the sites that shot that shot the content themselves. these 3 co's don't care cuz they get paid. no matter that their payments come at the expense of everyone else

                              madness

                              think I'm most pissed that they steal from talent while pretending to be on their side, but this hurts/causes hassle for everyone and serves to make performers look bad

                              a huge fan of the DMCA process, but this...I'll stop before I continue swearing

                                  Is there a way to sue these bastards?

                                  Do they have enough assets to be worth suing?

                                      Thanks guys & Jesse, going to email them and I guess see about the whitelisting.

                                      But c'mon, they are redacting all descriptions & all their content origins for everything is Onlyfans, there's no way they wouldn't know that these are being sent fraudulently.

                                      Shouldn't it be on Google to penalize them!?!

                                          That about sums up how seriously anyone takes DMCA claims made without proper authorization, which bottom feeding affiliates/competitors use against each other all the time. Good luck getting the Feds interested after more than a quarter of a century.

                                          Civil action is possible if you have lawyers sitting around doing nothing, but I think at best you'd get some money for time and expense wasted, while the offender just carries on with the scam under other names.

                                              Looks like you haven't met RULTA yet. Unfortunately, these kinds of DMCA issuers act solely based on matching. Google or hosting companies implement their decisions without querying. They don't take you seriously.

                                                  Ya I've had similar issues with RULTA too, these seem like perjury/fraud companies, no idea how they're being allowed to operate

                                                      Getting regular DMCA's from RULTA as well, quite annoying.

                                                      Seems they getting business done though, lots of different names using the service. And as mentioned before, it's all affiliate content (last one was BangBros) that is claimed to be exclusively shot for various OnlyFans models.

                                                      Shady fuckers and greedy models unite

                                                          You would have to sue the actual performer/creator, not the DMCA company.

                                                          The DMCA service is acting on their behalf.

                                                              As a test I cloaked pages. They do not access them. So no way to block them, they just gather the result on "XXXX" query and mass dmca it to google. not much to do.

                                                                  In 2013, she was invited by Sergey Goncharov for a photoshoot in Kyiv. The model, along with another victim, was confined in a house by Goncharov and two other men. Their passports were seized, and they were coerced into producing pictures and videos. The model was above 18 at the time, but was under duress.

                                                                  Photos of my client, taken when she was a minor under distressing conditions, are being circulated. Each time these images are shared, it not only revives the trauma of those moments but also violates the privacy of an underage girl. This situation could lead to legal consequences for those distributing this content. I kindly ask, with an appeal to your understanding and empathy, to please cease sharing these photos

                                                                  My client's name, pictures and videos were used without permission and consent of my client. So it's a copyright violation under DMCA act. This is also an illegal activity to distribute someone content with her permission and authorization. Please remove this content immediately.

                                                                  Thank you!

                                                                                                      After talking to one of the models about her end of the process it seems she gave some "search strings" to them, which includes her branding which is a highly generic term concatenated (keyword1keyword2keyword3) and the DMCA company have clearly just googled that and taken the top 1,000 results to submit.

                                                                                                      When I contact them it is "oh sorry, we'll withdraw that" - but it doesn't do anything, months later Google still won't index my original content that simply happens to have keyword1, keyword2, keyword3 in the body text.

                                                                                                      DMCA seems a great concept, but the implementation sucks. There are no sanity checks happening.
