X (Twitter)
X is mostly text, so the face material is concentrated in profile pictures and posted media. That narrowness turns out to be useful: a profile picture is a deliberate choice, and scam and bot networks reuse the same small pool of attractive stock and stolen faces across thousands of accounts. Searching one avatar often lights up the whole network.
We will help you check whether an account contacting you is using someone else's face. We will not help you unmask a pseudonymous person who is simply posting under a name that isn't theirs.
Your photo stays on your device until you press search, and only the square you framed is sent. Checking the photo is free — you'll see the plans before anything is searched or charged. By continuing you confirm you have a lawful reason to look this person up.
Crypto pitches, investment DMs, romance approaches and job offers on X very often come from accounts wearing someone else's face. Run the avatar. If it traces back to a model's portfolio, a stock library or an unrelated person's Instagram, you have your answer before you reply. This is fraud prevention and it is the reason this page exists.
Pseudonymity is not a crime. Plenty of people post under a handle for perfectly good reasons — their job, their safety, their family. Using a face search to attach a real name to someone who is not doing anything to you is harassment, it violates our terms, and it is the fastest way to get an account terminated here. If the account isn't targeting you, leave it alone.
A growing share of fake accounts now use generated faces rather than stolen ones. Those return nothing, because the face genuinely doesn't exist anywhere else. An empty result on a suspicious account is not a clean bill of health — read it as 'this face has no history', which for a supposedly real person is itself a red flag.
Only if that same face is already published somewhere public under a name. We don't have private data and we won't help with unmasking someone who isn't interacting with you — that use breaks our terms.
No. There has to be a face in the image. A logo, an illustration or a landscape gives us nothing to compare.
Yes. The index holds pages under both domains, and results may come back on either depending on when the page was crawled.
One search covers all of them at once — the platform pages just explain what to expect from each. Start from a photo and you'll get matches from everywhere the face appears.
