Fake fancams (also called the Fancam Situation) are shock videos uploaded and shared on Twitter and Instagram pretending to show fancam clips, videos created by fans usually to promote a musician, which lured viewers into either a screamer or graphic imagery, including but not limited to snuff films and self-harm footages. The trend originally started with K-pop artists, but later expanded to other categories.
While its origins remain uncertain, the phenomenon appeared around early 2019. During its insurgence, witnesses have found clues to identify uploaders of fake fancams, such as keywords "slit" or "slitz" and symbols.
Fake fancams made a resurgence in late December 2020. @ASUKLY made a bait-and-switch image with the word "click me!", which revealed photographs of self-harm upon loading.[1] The tweet has since been removed. ASUKLY also worked with Dreamslitz (who is now banned), who released a fake TommyInnit "fancam" the same day.[2]
A Twitter account, @fancamsituation, as well as the #stopusingfancamsasbait hashtag, were created to spread awareness and list uploaders to block. Multiple BlockTogether.org blocklists were also made to help blacklist uploaders of fake fancams. Many users either took a break, or censored their replies to avoid any spread of the situation.
As well as warnings of fake fancams spreading, rumors also appeared, which claimed that replying to the uploaders' direct messages would lead to either the user's account getting hacked, or having its private information revealed. These rumors have been debunked by Mutahar Anas, owner of the YouTube channel SomeOrdinaryGamers.
