Creator Profile Listed Without Permission? How to Remove It

A brand mentions your rate, and it is a number you did not give anyone. Or a fan sends you a link: a site has a page about you, with your photo, your handle, your follower counts from Twitch, YouTube and X, an email address, and sponsorship rates it made up. You did not sign up. Now you want it gone, and you want brands to stop seeing wrong information about you.

This guide covers how to ask for removal, how to deal with Google Search results, what not to send, and how to protect your brand deals while it is sorted. It uses Google's guidance on contacting a website owner, removing private info from Search and Results about you, plus Malaysia's Department of Personal Data Protection. One wrong step can cost you the account, so know what you are doing before you start.

#Quick Answer

If your creator profile is listed on a site without permission with fake rates, ask the site owner to remove it, using only the page URL and a short request. Then use Google's removal tools for any personal details in search, and point brands to your real contact page. Do not send ID or log in to the site.

#Why These Profiles Appear

Some sites collect public data from creator platforms, such as your display name, profile photo, follower counts and recent videos, and build a profile page from it. Some add an estimated rate or a contact email that is not yours. The data may be public on the original platform, but that does not mean you agreed to a new page that presents it as your offer to brands.

The main risks are practical. A brand may think your rate is fixed at a number you did not set, or may contact an email you do not own. A scammer may use the page to pose as your manager. And your name may now show a page you do not control in search.

#Step 1: Record the Page

1. Copy the exact URL of the profile page, not just the site's homepage.
2. Take screenshots of the whole page, with the date visible.
3. Note what is wrong: the rate, the contact email, any claim that you work with the site.
4. Check whether the page links to your real accounts, and which ones.
5. Search your name and handle to see whether the page shows in Google results.

Keep these in one folder. You will need the URL and screenshots for every request below.

#Step 2: Ask the Site Owner to Remove It

Google's guidance on contacting a website owner says the best thing to do is to talk to the website owner, because they can take the page down. It suggests looking for a Contact us link or an email address on the site, using a Whois search to find who owns and hosts the site, and contacting the hosting company if you cannot reach the owner.

Keep the request short. Say who you are, give the page URL, say you did not consent to the profile and that the rate and contact details are wrong, and ask for the page to be removed. Use a public contact method you already use for business.

Be careful with any claim or takedown form on the site itself. Read what it asks for. If it wants you to create an account, verify with ID or log in with a creator platform account, stop and use email instead. Proving who you are to a site you do not trust gives it more of your data, not less.

#Step 3: Clean Up Google Search

Google's removal page says Google can only remove things from Google Search results, and that to remove something from the website that hosts it, you contact the website owner. Once the page is changed or removed, Google lets you ask for the old result to be updated.

If the page shows personal contact details, Google's Results about you feature lets you find results with your home address, phone number or email and request removal. Google's removal page also says you can ask it to remove doxxing content, including a significant amount of aggregated personal info without a legitimate purpose, and that you must give the URLs for the pages with your information. For more on this, see our guide on removing personal information from Google search.

If the issue is a legal one, such as your own photo used without permission, Google's legal removal page explains how to report content on a Google product for legal reasons, with the specific URLs and a clear explanation.

#Step 4: Protect Your Brand Deals

• Add a line to your channel and profile bios saying where brands can reach you.
• Keep a media kit on a page you control, and update the date on it.
• Tell your regular brand contacts that the site's rates and email are not yours.
• Ask any agency or manager you work with to answer brand queries only from known addresses.
• If someone emails a brand pretending to manage you, keep the email for your records.

#Malaysian Creators: Personal Data Rules

Malaysian creators pitching local brands can lose deals when a third party page shows the wrong rate or contact. Malaysia's Department of Personal Data Protection administers the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (Act 709) and has a Report a Complaint option on its site. Whether the Act applies depends on who runs the site and where, so treat it as one option to check, alongside the steps above.

#What Only the Site and Google Can Decide

The site owner decides whether to remove the page, and Google decides whether a result qualifies under its removal policies. Your part is to make clear, well documented requests and to keep brands pointed at your real details.

#When It Is Safer to Get Expert Help

Getting help is safer when the site ignores you, when the page lists home or family details, or when someone is using it to pose as your manager to brands. Mistakes here can share more data, and fake helpers target creators who want a quick fix.

If you are unsure about any step, or your name matters to your income or business, having an experienced team check it is the safer choice. AwareXone does this work. See our digital identity protection page.

#When a Case Review Makes Sense

A case review helps when you need a removal plan across a site, its host and search, or when the page is being used against you. We are a Malaysia-based team, and we use only the official routes. We do not ask for your password or codes, and we cannot promise a result. See our trust page.
