Social Impersonation
Fake accounts using your brand name — found and removed across four platforms
Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook, and LinkedIn all have queryable namespace APIs. Brandefense monitors handle names, display names, and bio content across all four for your brand keywords — then packages the evidence to meet each platform's specific abuse submission requirements before filing.
Coverage map
Platform-by-platform namespace monitoring
Username and display name monitoring for fake brand support accounts and product impersonation handles. Evidence capture includes follower count, post history, and profile screenshot for Meta abuse submission.
Twitter / X
Handle monitoring with keyword scoring on bio text and recent tweet content. High-follower impersonation accounts are prioritized. Twitter Support abuse path used for verified escalation.
Page name and username monitoring for fake business pages impersonating your brand. Group membership and page activity scoring used to prioritize active impersonation over dormant squatters.
Company page impersonation monitoring targeting executive-impersonation fraud. Fake company pages used for investment scams and employee credential harvesting are flagged and submitted to LinkedIn Trust & Safety.
Evidence capture
Evidence packaging matched to each platform's submission format
Meta, Twitter Support, and LinkedIn Trust & Safety each require different evidence formats. Brandefense automatically captures full-page screenshots of detected impersonation accounts at time of discovery and assembles packages in the format each platform's abuse team expects.
Meta Intellectual Property Report submissions require: profile screenshot, follower count, URL, and trademark or brand registration reference. Twitter Impersonation Reports require: handle comparison screenshot and sample posts demonstrating deceptive intent. LinkedIn submissions are most effective with verbatim logo/description copy evidence. Brandefense handles all three — no SOC analyst time required to format the submission.
