The Anatomy of a Deepfake Campaign: A Project: Bullyish Case Study | Lillee Jean Trueman

When thinking about what to write for Project: Bullyish, it occurred to me. The anatomy of a deepfake... campaign! As a woman who has been retaliated against with explicit deepfakes in 2024, 2025, and early 2026, with swaths of deepfakes being produced to incite dehumanizing motives, I felt the need to write on this, anchored by my public posts a few days ago.
My goal is to shift the narrative from an intentional "scare" to an actual "action." I always stand by, if a crime occurs, you report it, you don't advertise it on the internet; as I actually have reported this ongoing harassment, I felt it's time to turn it into advocacy now. I realize this same criminal dehumanizing action is happening to other women and some young girls.
By analyzing the technical and psychological tactics used in coordinated aggravated harassment campaigns by syndicates, my study provides a sort of blueprint for identifying and reporting these threats. As per my X thread on the 5th of March, 2026, it empowered me to finally discuss this subject, which is truly triggering, as it is vital to educate on. This post, as of March 23rd, was added to. What have I done? Reported the crime to the NYPD; it's their job to enforce the law, which includes the TAKE IT DOWN act, and to pursue harassment. This article, to note, is DIFFERENT than the deepfakes from 2024 distributed of me with 2 impersonating account's; however, it's vital to mention, remnants of such crime still exist.
The "Nexus" Identifying Coordinated Tactics
Above features several screenshots from my X posts, documenting the aggravated non-stop harassing behavior, and how it correlates to a known syndicate I've been reporting on for years. I chose to make the images a gallery rather than individual posts, because the truth is, this has been going on for YEARS. It should feel overwhelming and dehumanizing, because that is the intention that was intended for me. As a director, what better way to exemplify this than to show the audience raw emotion? How I feel. I want to note that I have had an NYPD report on this incident since January 2026; it's an active investigation due to the nexus to my other reports.
Back on subject, the above records serve as forensic evidence, illustrating a "repository-like" setting where private childhood photos, some from when I was 14 or 16 years old, are very oddly archived and later distorted to spark reactions or bypass security blocks. These images were on my private META accounts and were never published to the public.
"This person...has been blocked...and continues to bypass blocks on my accounts and sites with photos of me at 14, 15, and even younger to spark reaction. Since being blocked the photos of me have become younger, to show the repository like setting of archiving, by which my family and I do not even poses. This isn’t a fan...please note any deepfake material being circulated is simply false, and any woman going through this, I feel you."
By showcasing these one-sided interactions, I am showing the "Nexus" of planted nodes that use coordinated clusters of aliases to deceptively mimic real engagement while violating my religious and personal rights. Please note, this person has been blocked as I stated for a while, and continues to try and superseed my website. My public posts are routinely intercepted by 'alt' accounts that serve as bridge-nodes to the dark web, each image ends up THERE. This is a calculated syndicate tactic: framing coordinated harassment as 'fan engagement' and the only "unpaid-fan" narrative, to maintain a false narrative while facilitating a commercialized cycle of violation.
Case Evidence: Recorded Prompts, Archives, and Forgeries
Through my work, I have identified a truly multi-prong self-sustaining ecosystem where "planted nodes" work in connection to make harassment appear to be a popular movement. The news flash is, as I've said many times, it's planted works, for PROFIT. I mean, they literally show MyHeritage, and Busuu next to my face, shamelessly. In relation to deepfakes, they weaponized such horrid acts, as being created by my family for attention in an effort to gaslight the public deceptively and shift the criminal focus off them. I have a press release documenting this behavior.
Above, you will see them prompting GROK. In photo 4, my 17-year-old body was harvested on my mom's face, with explicit actions done to the chest area. It's absolutely invasive, harassing, and dehumanizing. Now, ultimately, the question you might ask is, who is the "them", and how does it relate to the main subject? Well, the accounts identified, such as BeepPeepLilBo, LILLEEJEANFAN, and boyyyyyyyo99 (both socks, alongside TrudeauT96800), do not operate in a tiny section; they function as primary nodes within a broader network designed to circulate syndicated deepfakes across Meta, X, and TOR. They did this in 2024 with LilleeJean69, amongst other sock accounts. It's played. Once this article was released, "BEEPPEEPLILBO" deactivated the account. However, GROK'S demoralizing religious AI deepfakes remain (REMOVED AS OF MARCH 23, 2026)
While I successfully advocated for the removal of this AI-generated content by Grok after a six-day period, I have maintained a comprehensive forensic archive of the original bikini-prompted forgeries and the subsequent synthetic escalations that followed, and I can confirm, that the NYPD has commenced an active investigation. As evidenced in the censored documentation (Photo 6), these artificial accounts were used to "inflate" the reach of a deepfake, by adding on further GROK prompts, which was then strategically migrated to the "nexus" of dark web CHAN boards for commercialized profit.
This transition from mainstream platforms to the dark web prompted further coordinated "chatter," fueling a secondary wave of harassment via third-party platforms like YouTube. In these instances, bad actors published videos publishing my Personally Identifiable Information (PII) while deceptively claiming that the deepfakes were nowhere...which is simply because they had already been removed by my legal intervention. This non-stop circular tactic, producing illegal content, waiting for its removal, and then "lamenting" its absence to incite further skepticism, is a deliberate move by the syndicate to put my life in further danger despite the credible, documented threats already on file with law enforcement.
This specific cluster of syndicated links demonstrates a clear pattern of targeting, ranging from distorted imagery to hijab deepfakes designed to erase my Jewish identity. I have spoken out about antisemitic behavior before, and to force a person to wear religious attire like a hijab onto my Jewish identity through AI prompts like "make her wear a hijab", truly speaks to the people running such campaigns. We all should live in peace; to weaponize such recent events speaks miles of the people running this campaign. These coordinated efforts, evidenced by multiple recorded prompts, illustrate how the "Nexus" utilizes interconnected accounts to maintain a persistent environment of harassment.
The 2024 Tie-In Original Deepfakes
The resurgence of non-consensual deepfakes in December 2025, is a calculated criminal assault on my identity, and my family. The same group that created and distributed explicit synthetic forgeries in 2024, soliciting degrading works and weaponizing my likeness (you can see above them trying to solicit from people), continues to engage in a malicious pattern of DARVO by denying these images even exist while simultaneously profiting from them.
In 2026, I can not fathom this existing. As a woman, to see your body in such a way, removes a chip of your soul, with an out-of-body experience. It's chilling. Then, to know the imagery being profited on, even in 2026? With sites the NYPD have been alerted to, and strings to poison SEO - it's just pure electricity through me.
Though I have spoken out about this, with the tongues of those who produced the deepfake material trying to silence me, you will see above, like a tag-team, the three "sock" profiles, two impersonating me, back and forth commented under my profile on X, the deepfakes, and tried to solicit under my REAL posts. I wouldn't have seen any of these unless I was tagged. I meant to SEE them for mental distress and reputational harm. The interesting part is, I wasn't on X - I actually only went back on early 2024 because this syndicate started impersonating me, claiming they were the real Lillee Jean. So this didn't pop up, out of nowhere - it's not "civilians", and is a pure crime.
This conduct directly violates the TAKE IT DOWN Act and NY S06278, which provide a private right of action against the unauthorized creation of such imagery. These are violations of federal and state laws regarding aggravated harassment and the right to publicity. The DEFIANCE Act of 2024 is a major milestone, as it actually grants a federal civil cause of action for individuals whose likeness is weaponized in AI-generated explicit content, allowing one to pursue both the creator of the work and those who knowingly distribute the material. This applies internationally.
The NYPD Cyber Crimes Unit has already subpoenaed records, and accounts have been formally identified in connection to this syndicate’s infrastructure (see last image above, held for legal request).
To see these bad actors continue to gaslight the public in recent 2026 hateful content, while I document thousands of unauthorized "Success" hits from their industrial clusters, is a chilling reminder of the lengths this enterprise will go to avoid accountability. Everyone else did it, but themselves. The problem? REAL consequences.
Coordinated Cyber-Attacks: DDoS and Search Manipulation
This is worth a huge mention. The forensic timeline of this campaign extends back several months, showing a clear escalation in tactics. I actually have press releases documenting this behavior.
Starting in October 2025, I began reporting to the FBI a series of coordinated DDoS attacks in TCP standard handshake, originating from providers like Tencent and Aceville, specifically aimed at destabilizing my professional platforms. During this same window, my security monitoring identified a malicious spike in "XXX" search queries on adult sites, where my name was being forcibly indexed alongside explicit terms. Deepfakes were present. On X, December 2025, the node began using its "front".
This was not organic traffic; it was a deliberate attempt to poison my SEO and facilitate the distribution of the synthetic forgeries I am documenting today. Tencent emailed me back several times, stating they removed "content"...when I simply reported IP abuse.
The NYPD has been aware of this specific intersection of cyber-sabotage and character assassination since October 2025, and it remains a critical component of the ongoing investigation into this syndicate's commercialized motives.
Legal Recourse and Victim Rights
A primary goal of my advocacy is to empower victims to move toward a state of professional reporting. It is not for public opinion; it is showcased to educate and advocate.
In 2024, the NYPD successfully began to enforce the law against the publication of explicit deepfake photographs and impersonating accounts that targeted me. Direct reporting to authorities like the FBI or the NYPD is the essential first step in dismantling "CHAN" networks.
As we move further into 2026, the landscape regarding AI-generated harm is rapidly evolving to meet these newfound challenges. From the DEFIANCE Act to state-specific non-consensual deepfake laws, The First Ladies push for deepfake accountability, and the unauthorized commercial use of a person's likeness, especially when combined with the distribution of PII and synthetic forgeries, this all carries some serious criminal weight.
By documenting the 'chain of custody' from the initial prompt to the dark-web migration, as it always cycles in a loop, I am ensuring that these digital fingerprints remain part of a permanent record.
Remember: silence is the syndicate's greatest tool, but documentation is a victim’s greatest weapon.
"Please, if this occurs to you, report it to the proper authorities. Ladies, you have rights."
