Monitor social media impersonation of brand and executives

Detect fake profiles, brand impersonators, and impersonation messaging campaigns across major social platforms — with platform-ready takedown workflows.

The problem

Fake social profiles drive BEC, customer scams, recruiter fraud, and reputation attacks. Security and brand teams rarely have continuous, branded coverage.

Why it matters now

AI-generated photos and bios make impersonation cheap. Boards expect documented social-impersonation coverage for executives and brands.

How Verasity™ solves it

Multi-platform coverage

Continuous monitoring across LinkedIn, X, Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Telegram.

Visual and handle matching

Detect impersonators using logos, profile photos, and near-identical handles.

Messaging campaign detection

Identify coordinated impersonation outreach and recruiter scams.

Platform takedown templates

Pre-formatted evidence and abuse submissions for each major platform.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. 1

    Onboard brand handles, executives, and recruiter profiles.

  2. 2

    Continuous discovery and visual matching across platforms.

  3. 3

    Risk-score by reach, behavior, and impersonation signals.

Example impersonation
