Security News > 2023 > September > Fake celebrity photo leak videos flood TikTok with Temu referral codes
TikTok is flooded with videos promoting fake nude celebrity photo leaks used to push referral rewards for the Temu online megastore.
Lately, Temu referral codes on TikTok have taken a darker turn, with scammers creating videos that imply sensitive photos and videos of celebrities have been leaked.
The scammers then prompt the viewer to download the Temu app and enter their referral number to view the leaked content.
Almost all of the videos have captions like, "I thought she was innocent" or " got leaked," and show suggestive photos or captions with prompts to download Temu and enter the listed referral number.
With the massive number of these Temu referral scams flooding TikTok over the past couple of weeks, other TikTok users have begun noticing them and creating their own videos to question them.
BleepingComputer has contacted Tiktok and Temu about these referral videos but has not received a response at this time.
