OnlyFans: Inside the secret world of OnlyFans ghostwriters - Video

Exclusive investigation into the deceptive world of Only Fans chatters - the global content farms that feed the OnlyFans algorithm.

OnlyFans has revolutionised the world of porn and adult content - making millionaires of creators like Mia Khalifa and Belle Delphine, as well as attracting celebrities like Iggy Azalea and Denise Richards.

But... not everything is as always as it seems on one of the world's most downloaded apps.

Welcome to the world of OnlyFans ghost writers, where agencies around the world take a cut of a model's income in exchange for granting them a 24-hour presence online, making money around the clock, without them having to send as much as an intro message.

In our latest documentary, Sophie Peachey explores the hidden side to OnlyFans; one which utilises low paid workers and exploits the loneliness of fans to reap massive financial rewards.

"How is a man from the Philippines convincing people he's a 20-year-old model from London?"

You get home from a long day at work. You open your laptop, log on to OnlyFans and begin chatting to your favourite creator, picking up from where you left off the day before.

The conversation is organic, flirty and fun. It feels like the person on the other end knows exactly what to say to you, but does it feel too good to be true?

It should, because in many cases it is.

The person you're speaking to is not the OnlyFans model you think, but in fact someone thousands of miles away reading from a script; a script designed to give attention to people like you, and to get money from you as a result.

But is it deception, or does everyone get what they want? Or both?

This documentary contains themes of a sexual nature that some viewers may find upsetting.
