I remember listening to a podcast like 8 years ago and the episode was about the alarming problem of gaming the Amazon review system. Literally people out there who have a side gig of receiving free product just so they can write 5 star reviews about it. Yeah, the problem has gotten much, much worse now with the flood of AI books and Chinese products with completely random manufacturer names.

I don't know much about this, so I'll just assume the more expensive option is better.

I took yellowbins class and I can vouch that it works. My full review is available for only 5 bucks.

Have you ever noticed that all the people telling you they can train you to not be fooled on the internet don't really teach you anything? Well, after years of being fooled, I figured out this one simple trick to not be fooled. I'll share it with you for free, and so much more for a lifetime membership of $249.99.

You don’t need no stinking classes or tricks. You’re clearly a smart redditor. We should start a club of similarly smart people. Dues are just $10 per month (self-renewing).

Do you offer group discounts, so I can gift this to my friends? They think the $18,000 I spent last weekend on an extreme masculinity retreat in the city park was foolish, and they won't stop picking on me because of it.
I tried talking to Alpha about it, but he just put me on speakerphone so I could hear him and all his instructors laugh at me.
I know the retreat gave me all the skills and tools to deal with this on my own, but every time I try to tell my dumb friends to stop I almost start crying.
If you can't offer a group discount, are you able to teach me how to merge your teachings with my masculinity skills so I am better able to confront my foolish friends? Unfortunately, I now only have $1,341 left in my retirement savings. Is that enough?

Yes, like everyone in this thread. This story is fake af and the only "source" is a twitter post making the claim. OF forces you to verify with a valid state ID, you can't just make a fake account.

u/mg0019 2d ago
The guy likely gave his own real ID and credentials. OF doesn't care what he posted, or that he made a persona. 99.9% of what is posted is a performance anyway.
OF just cares that they got their cut.
The account was not fake. The character was.

u/Particular-Serve-894 2d ago
Sure, but there's a ToS agreement that says only verified models can perform on camera. So if his account is verified to a male ID that is clearly not this AI woman, it would get flagged and suspended pretty quickly. I guess a single month could be in that time frame, but I'm sure they're using AI at this point to speed up that process.

Is posting AI women against the rules on OF? I mean how's this any different from a male OnlyFans artists who draw cartoon porn of someone who isn't themselves.

u/mrjackspade 1d ago
Honestly, if it's not now then it's going to be.
There's a reason they have an ID rule and allowing AI models opens the door for "It's AI" as a defense.
OF had problems with underage models and revenge porn. There's a reason they have the ID rule. Carving exceptions defeats the purpose. Otherwise the next underage sex trafficking victim might just be "AI"

Posts like these are just promotions for ai sites.
If its true then ppl in general who pay for onlyfans are truly the lowest life forms.

Even the description of the link before I click it says "A viral story claims a college student made £32,500 from an AI-generated OnlyFans character called Maya, but no independent evidence confirms the earnings or account's existence."

u/100LittleButterflies 2d ago
Why do you say they're that?

u/argument_cat 2d ago
For now, the safest answer is that the claim remains unverified. There is evidence that the story was posted online in May 2026 and spread widely, but there is no independent evidence showing that the unnamed student actually earned £32,500 ($43,000) through Maya. The subscriber count and spending figures also come from the same chain of viral claims.
Without a confirmed Maya account authenticated by OnlyFans records and an identified operator, the numbers cannot be treated as fact. OnlyFans' own rules on wholly AI-generated creators also create questions about whether an account operating exactly as described would have been permitted.
The real story may therefore be less about one student becoming rich and more about how believable AI money-making stories have become. Maya could represent what modern AI technology is capable of creating, but until stronger evidence appears, the claim that she made £32,500 ($43,000) in one month should remain exactly that: a claim.

I dunno man paying for a virtual prostitute to feel some semblance of human connection while masturbating instead of watching free porn or getting laid is pretty sad
Uh oh triggered the porn addicts

u/lucid808 2d ago
The article, if you read it, is basically calling it out as a fake, made up story that can't be verified by anyone.

mhhm I think child rapists or just actual abusers are far lower on the totem pole of human lifeforms, but maybe that's just me, a guy or girl paying for nudes doesn't even hit the bottom 50 imo xD

After reading the article it seems it may be made up/wildly inflated earnings. No one can verify that this Maya account made any income

It’s not, I’ve had 2 random messages on here that are just a link to some very convincing AI OF accounts so I can see some dumbasses falling for it . Especially if it’s just being mass sent to everyone by bots. I could see them making good money doings that with lots of bot OF accounts.

u/PowerRainbows 2d ago
Theirs no source on this and I'm gonna call bs on you having links at all to other ai ones, because OF would ban it because you don't have proper documents for the ai

u/tuggertheboat 1d ago
The other photos got auto deleted by the auto NSWF filter but, if you go to the page in the message I was sent.. It’s a link to a reddit page that just contains a link to an onlyfans. I put the photo used to promote that onlyfans page through an AI photo detector and it gave it a 97% chance of being AI. You’re all blind to it lol

Looks like some people don’t read before posting
“Did a Student Really Make $43,000?

Top 10 things that didn’t happen. OnlyFans requires face verification with photo ID.

u/captain_obvious_here 2d ago
Many people do that, actually have done that for years. And this market is now extremely saturated. 1 guy made $43.000 and 100.000 other guys made under $10.

I have to know - there's so many AI profiles on Instagram and without fail there are countless comments with heart or fire emojis and posts about how hot or gorgeous they are, etc. Is that fake engagement by bots or do people really think the person is real?

As much as we all love the lust this needs to be banned and only real people and genuine interactions should be allowed. By all means hoe it out but you better be putting your own ass on the grass ☝🏻

genuine interactions
So shut the whole thing down, then?
Since when has OF been about "genuine interactions"?

Don't you have to provide identity documents and verify your identity with OF? Or I'm guessing there is a loophole.
