About this site
Why this website exists
Every platform has a form to report impersonation. But no platform tells you what to do when that form says “this doesn’t violate our guidelines,” or rejects your ID, or never answers at all.
That’s where most people get stuck. Most advice online stops at “report the account.” That’s exactly the step that fails.
This site covers the whole thing. How to report, because sometimes it works. And what to do next when it doesn’t: the escalation routes, the copyright option most people never try, and how long each step really takes.
How we make our guides
Reporting forms and menus change all the time. Most guides online describe buttons that no longer exist.
We go through each platform’s real reporting flow and check every escalation route against the platform’s own forms and policies. Each guide shows a “Last updated” date. That date only changes when we actually re-check the steps.
We don’t promise removals. Nobody honestly can. We promise that every step in our guides is real, current, and worth trying.
Our statistics page
The numbers on impersonation are scattered across government reports and platform transparency pages that almost nobody reads.
We put them in one place, each figure linked to its source. Doing that showed what is missing. The gap is real: some platforms publish a lot, others almost nothing, and the categories rarely match.
What none of them publish in a comparable way is what happens to the impersonation reports people file: how many are rejected, how long a decision takes, how often an appeal succeeds.
