Fraud on StripChat

[fraud_detector]

Has anyone else ever had the impression, that Stripchat doesn't read what users write, when they report a model? Usually you get an answer within minutes 'no violation found', even if you describe exactly what the case is. Also appeal doesn't help. They always 'carfully review' and find .... nothing.

OP just seems to be trolling here now, not going to engage further.

I’ll take the 'Crimson Bolt' as a compliment, though I don’t need a costume to see the obvious.

What surprises me most is that some performers seem fine with 24/7 pre-recorded videos and ghost-chatters taking up the top spots and draining the tokens that would otherwise go to actual live models. It's not about being a vigilante; it's about not wanting to see honest work being devalued by systemic deception. Even without a cape, it’s pretty easy to see who loses out in the long run: the models who actually show up and the users who pay for a unfulfilled promise.

Crimson Bolt, Scarlet Pimpernel... it’s quite a collection of aliases I'm being given!
But let’s look at why these characters exist: they step in when the established systems – the authorities, the platforms – fail to do their job. If the reporting system worked and 'Live' actually meant live, I’d just be another user enjoying the shows.
The fact that asking for basic Consumer Transparency feels like a 'secret mission' to some here says more about the current state of the Stripchat platform than it does about me.

My dude, it is a porn site not the Library of Congress. Chill. You're an expert in seeing recorded shows, go forth and avoid them and reward the real live models.

True, it’s not the Library of Congress, but it is a multi-million dollar business. And last time I checked, consumer protection laws don't stop at the bedroom door.

If I pay for a live interaction and get a recording instead, it's not a 'vibe' issue, it's a transparency issue. Telling me to just 'avoid' them while the platform actively promotes them as live is like telling a customer in a restaurant to just 'avoid' the spoiled fish instead of the kitchen simply following hygiene standards.

I don't think the unrelenting focus of the OP's threads is going to change until he finds converts to join his crusade.

He did reference restaurants. That makes me think of "Let's Talk Snacks."
I sure hope fraud is never detected in that thread.

Don't worry, I’ll leave the snacks to the foodies. But while we're on the subject of restaurants: If I pay for a fresh steak and get a picture of a steak instead, it’s not a 'crusade' to point it out – it's just common sense.

If Stripchat actually enforced its rules about transparency, we wouldn't need to have this conversation at all. Enjoy your snacks!

The models you're interacting with on here primarily use this board to vent and eat whatever the Stripchat reps feed them. (Reps are essentially here to mitigate any potential damage to SC's reputation as this forum ranks higher in Google than most official channels - all the power to them)

I've never seen a pre-recorded show anywhere near the top. It usually requires a minimum Stripscore of 1000 - though it's possible with lower if the model's on an upswing or has the "new" label. I can assure you Top Models would love it if they were competing with the Studio Model in the image you shared (nothing against them - just how it is).

You're right, though. This is happening... Ironically only hurts the torch and pitchfork crowd attempting to go medieval on your ass, but c'est la vie...

Best of luck getting justice.

That’s probably the most honest take I’ve read here so far. You hit the nail on the head regarding the 'reputation mitigation' and the irony of who is actually getting hurt.

However, regarding the ranking: When an account using these methods has e.g. over 200,000 followers, it’s hard to believe they aren't siphoning off significant traffic and tokens from the top tier. With that many followers, the algorithm practically pushes them to the front row by default.

It’s a fascinating look behind the curtain of how this ecosystem defends itself. Thanks for the insight and the luck – I’ll certainly make use of it.

That's an interesting case.

Having 200k followers doesn't guarantee traffic. (Strip Score - pretty much hourly revenue - is what gets thousands of viewers in the room)

I know it's hard to believe - 200k sounds like a lot - and it is relatively - but it could simply be a dormant account being run by a studio (or one person) that doesn't want to let go of that many followers. Their goal would be more along the lines of fan club subscriptions, video sales, and getting SC viewers off the platform and buying content somewhere else. (the last one would make you think SC would be against it - it's anyone's guess as to why they aren't pursued)

In order to keep that dormant account ranked relatively high and for it to not look like an obvious scam, someone would need to feed it tokens during the broadcast so others would see a busy room (receiving tokens = move up in whatever categories they're in = get more people in room).

Who would do such a thing? Perhaps the person who owns the account also does Affiliate Marketing (Strip Cash program) - they buy tokens off themself, spend them in their own room, and therefore pay only 30% of the actual cost of tokens since they'd get 50% back from what they received in their room and 20% from Strip Cash earnings. Definitely cheaper/less time consuming than other forms of advertising! Added bonus: it makes it look like you have a successful SC account.

Note: I wrote this under the impression the account in question was once real and had a live model performing - it would also be possible to do this from scratch and always use pre-recorded shows. (actually easier that way)

These are not regular models and they do not enter the top rankings.

It goes hilariously deeper than this.

Kafkaesque, your breakdown of the Affiliate Marketing loop is eye-opening. It explains a lot about the 'why'. I had already wondered whether these might be accounts run by Stripchat themselves, given how vehemently they’re resisting banning them.

However, let’s look at the actual 'how' for the account in question (and some similar ones): We’re talking about permanently 500+ live viewers (including bots I'm afraid) and over $5,000 in earnings this month alone. That’s not a dormant account – it’s a high-rev engine. And the 'video sales' you mentioned? They are happening directly on the platform for tokens.

Interestingly, when I pointed out in that room that users should not pay for pre-recorded videos while currently already watching one, I was instantly banned. It seems the 'system' is very efficient at silencing transparency to protect these 70% cashback schemes.

The most frustrating part? Despite clear evidence of this automated video shows, the official response remains a scripted 'no violation found.' This isn’t a one-off; it’s a blueprint. It goes 'hilariously deeper,' indeed – but for the users paying real money for pre-recorded 'live' shows, the joke isn't that funny.

Try again but this time without assuming they are buying the cheapest package xD

Edit: also anyone thats ever reported an issue on stripchat for a rule violation or even a technical problem knows that stripchat needs improvement in this area.

Agreed, but I would say 'has to decide to be honest with users' instead of 'needs improvement'.

Well since we're onto food already..

I have been addicted to Tiramisu lately. I had never tried it before a few weeks ago, finally had one, and wow I don't know what took me all these years! Now I am eating too many

Hello @fraud_detector

We actively participate in public forums because we genuinely value feedback—it helps us refine our processes and grow as a company, while allowing us to better support our models and users.

Thank you for your reports. The best approach now is to focus on resolving the situation rather than creating further disruption within the community.

To start off, I will confirm that using pre-recorded videos are considered a serious rule violation on Stripchat, as all broadcasts must be live. If you reported an incident and your report was declined, you are welcome to appeal the incident so that our Moderation team can take a second look. If this appeal additionally fails, you are more than welcome to send Elira or I a message for one of us to look into it further and discuss it with our colleagues in the Moderation team.

If your report has not resulted in action after all these steps, it means the Moderation team has carefully reviewed the case and determined that there is not sufficient evidence to proceed. Please note that action is taken when there is sufficient supporting evidence, and not solely based on a report.

I will PM you directly now as you mentioned earlier that you were not able to send a PM to Elira. I will take a closer look into this case that you are speaking of and see if action needs to be taken.
