StopNCII.org shields victims of loan app image abuse

This website does not collect or store any images. Instead, it generates a unique digital fingerprint or hash of any picture submitted by the victim. This hash is shared with partner organizations. If any matching images are found on their platform, they will be deleted immediately.

This innovative service ensures that victims never have to worry about pictures or videos being posted online again.

StopNCII.org is operated by the Revenge Porn Helpline, part of SWGfl, an international charity with a global network in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. This charity works tirelessly to protect the interests of individuals from online abuse.

The website’s primary goal is to help those who have been harassed by scammers and fraudsters, who force people to send inappropriate images under threats of violence or public humiliation. In many cases, these threats have led to serious consequences, including suicide, as people struggle to cope with the emotional toll of such abuse. The website offers a free, accessible solution to prevent more victims.

To use StopNCII.org, people who have been threatened by loan app hosts or scammers need to go to the website and upload a picture or video they previously shared with criminals. The website will generate a digital fingerprint, or hash, of the content. The hash will be sent to StopNCII.org’s partners, including major platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, PornHub and OnlyFans.

These platforms will search for matching hashes and remove any infringing content that violates their intimate image abuse policies.

Victims receive a case number and PIN, which can be used to track the progress of their case. The website continues to scan partner platforms for any further violations of victims’ privacy. This service is especially useful for people who are concerned about the possibility of their images being reproduced online without their consent.
