I originally started this ig account for my charity pole dance marathon event in August, 2019 at the Crazy Horse III in Las Vegas. What a fun event, we had Lisa Ann host, and the entire 24-hour pole marathon was livestreamed on CamSoda! We made it to the 24th hour, and were able to raise $20k in donations to the Feal Good foundation, and organization that provides resources to 9/11 First Responders and their families. See you on ig
*March 18, 2024* Well, it looks like Meta has once again disabled my instagram account due to “impersonation”. No they are not responding to me or my attorneys, despite us sending photos of me holding my id’s, trademark license & Articles of Incorporation. The scammers in Africa/Philippines must have a good contact over at instagram 🤡
Good luck, please don’t interact with them, no matter how convincing there are, it’s NOT. ME.
Instagram/Meta disabled my instagram account, @gratefulredtour, last October due to…. impersonation.
That’s right, my account was disabled by Meta for impersonating… myself.
There were absolutely no violations made by this account that violated any of Meta’s Terms of Service. I had gone live on that account multilple times & posted those livestreams on my grid page in order to prove that there is ONLY one instagram account that I use, and that I do NOT direct message ANYONE, ever, on Instagram.
This was probably my 9th instagram account that I had made due to all previous accounts being disabled. I had made mistakes with those previous accounts by posting borderline explicit photos or linking to my adult sites, so I learned my lesson and moved cautiously forward.
Back in 2018, there was a religious extremist from another part of the world that went on a campaign to disable all adult performers from instagram. Just about everyone in the adult industry got their account disabled, including some noteable adult companies. As soon as anyone would post to Twitter or Facebook that their Instagram was deleted, he would immediately post a reply under it with something along the vulgar lines of “You deserve it, burn in hell”. He did pretty well for himself, until APAC (Adult Performer Advocacy Committee) was finally able to make contact with someone from Instagram. There were meetings held, and they were able to stop the disabling of these accounts that were not violating any of Meta’s Terms of Service.
However, only a few months later, instagram accounts of attractive women in bikinis (not necessarily in the adult industry) started disappearing without explanation. At that point in 2019, I was only able to keep an instagram account for a few months before it was disabled again. There were, of course, a few instagram accounts featuring almost nude photos of women that were thriving. TikTok posts were popping up on how to “get in” with the employees at instagram (that held the power of disabling and/or verifying) by contacting them via sites like LinkedIn, and flirting with or dating them. And they even started posting the dm exchange with the instagram employees that were reinstating or verifying their accounts. I’m not knocking the hustle! I just want to paint a picture of how this works.
Many people come after me in my line of work since I started modeling as a Penthouse Pet in 2009. Some I’ve met in person, most I haven’t. Since then, the online scammer industry has thrived and become more powerful. This isn’t some loser living in his mom’s basement getting off on trying to destroy the lives of others to feed their ego, these are underground businesses with locations all over the world that operate like well-oiled machines. Hence why you may have gotten a dm or friend request from a social media account using my name and/or photos with sub-par grammar or spelling. Currently, there’s been no success in getting these accounts disabled or even suspended on the instagram platform.
Yes, I’ve submitted my trademark license for Jayden Cole, a copy of my Articles of Incorporation for Jayden Cole, Inc. & Grateful Red, Inc. along with clear photos of me holding up my id’s next to my face to instagram on at least a weekly basis since I started my first account, @jaydencole, in 2011. I have never received a response. I also had my trademark attorneys reach out sending (more) copies of these documents, to no avail. The next step I could take is to file a federal lawsuit against Meta for allowing the plethora of accounts to thrive and flourish using my trademarked name, likeness, and/or business names on their platform and allowing these scammers to make illegal money by preying on their users.
I’m guessing Meta has some pretty good legal defense, and would be more than happy to drag this out in court and drain me financially, dontcha think?
I get 3-5 “reset password” notifications per week from Meta, Twitter, and TikTok over the years, indicating there are 3-5 (humans?) attempting to hack into my accounts each week. I keep a file on a hard drive of all the horrifying emails and messages I’ve received over the past few years threatening my life and my family due to getting scammed by an imposter stealing my name and/or photos on an instagram account. It usually starts out with them contacting my followers via dm, saying something along the lines of “Hey, so glad to have you as a follower! You’re really cute, let’s chat via dm” which then leads to chatting on whatsapp/signal/telegram/google chat/hangouts, which leads to them extorting $$$ from said follower via paypal/cashapp/venmo, etc.
I’ve learned it’s always a good idea to change your passwords every few weeks, use a Password Keeper or Authenticator app if you need to keep your passwords on your phone, & thank goodness for 2-step Authentication! If a hot girl starts initiating conversation with you online, run a quick Google search on her photos.
I’m curious, so please comment below: What has your experience with online safety been, and what would you or have you done differently?
Please share!
Moving forward, all I can do is continue to post the link to my new account, make videos so you can verify it’s really me, post my link page, and encourage my online followers & friends to send me screenshots of the imposter accounts & dm’s so that I can warn others. Here is the link to my fresh new ig:

Be safe out there, trust your instincts, and let’s make 2025 a great year!
XOXO
