This TikTok Imposter is the WORST!

- Unfortunately, this is one of the struggles of having of social media. It's far too common. But this imposter really rubbed me the wrong way - stealing my profile photo, name and content...but also stealing content from another creator - with MY NAME! Please report this page if you are on TikTok. I am not on TikTok so anything there for me is fake.
❤️ ABOUT THIS CHANNEL❤️
My name is Britta and this is my experience as an everyday person learning how to train mustangs. I’m what I call a “project equestrian” This is not training advice or recommendations, and many of the methods you see will be changing over the course of time as I continue to learn and grow. www.projectequ...
✨WAYS TO SUPPORT MY CHANNEL ✨
It takes a lot for me to keep making videos. I'm completely self funded, and your support is a HUGE help and encouragement to me! Here are some ideas to help keep my channel running!
1. My Amazon wishlist: www.amazon.com...
2. “Buy me a Hay Bale” - www.buymeacoff...
Some people just suck. They are basically stealing your life and profiting from it. I’ve seen quite a few of these imposter accounts and I try to report them for stolen content.
FYI - tic tok’s days may be numbered. Congress may ban tik tok after Jan. I really don’t care since I don’t use it. Very Sad that some people don’t use their own God given talents but instead feel the need to steal those who are. Keep up the good work, Britta!👏
I hope you are right about Congress. I think TikTok has done quite a lot of damage to our country by spreading falsehoods as truth. And many people don't do their due diligence and dig any deeper.
I’m so glad you came out and told us what had happened to you and The Clever Cowgirl. I watch you both. I couldn’t ever see you do something like that. I know what it’s liked to be hacked. You ladies stick together you have very similar interests and both are looking for bigger property. Hang in there.
Yeah, it’s so dumb! I’m glad she let me know. It’s really embarrassing for me to have someone smearing my name like that
They have horse's that looks alike ❤😂🎉Maybe one day The Project Equestrian & The clever Cowgirl can do video together???????????🎉😂❤God 💯🙏💯💖 Blessing from Iowa, USA
Hang in there! I’m a new subscriber. You & The CC are doing wonderful things with horses and creating fun and interesting content. Thank you.
I'm glad you cleared this up....I heard about hers being stolen.
Please don't let it get you down. You are doing great work.
Thank you!
Thank you for clearing that up. I do not have tic tok either. But I hope someone will report them and take them off the platform.
Me too! I really hope it will be taken down. It is embarrassing for me
@rustea You don´t have to have an account on tiktok in order to report imposters - I found out after a follower pointed that out :)
I subscribed today as a small way of helping your channel because I believe you.
Aww thank you!🙏
A good part of why I like you and CC is because you both seem very transparent, straight forward, and honest in your communications. Anyone who follows you regularly would recognize the difference between your unique styles and an imposter eventually, I'd think. But I don't do social media at all, just RUclips. TikTok is not an atmosphere I want to be in. When I want to say I think someone is full of horsecrap, I say they got their degree from TikTok University.
Thank you! It is such frustrating thing 😕
@@TheProjectEquestrian Yes it is. I am dealing with someone stealing my personal info. It's not my creative work, but it's an assault on privacy non-the-less. It's also so disappointing to think people can be so duplicitous. But I have a lot of faith in you and CC's abilities and integrity, Glad you're well again. Take heart in how all your followers are defending you and CC.
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that that happened to you! I know that is a very frustrating thing. As if we need something else to deal with.😖
I saw earlier this week in a SHORT that CC posted-----she called out the Thief, and explained that You and She are both the victims here. I have been subscribed to both your channel, CCs, (and other horse-related channels as well) for over a year. EVERYONE knows that Clever Cowgirl is in Montana and Project Equestrian is in Vermont. I have BOYCOTTED TIK-TOK from its inception. One, because it's just good to Limit social media, period, and Two, because I read an article that Tik-Tok is out of China and that users will be running a high risk of Hackers, having that app. No one who has been a fan of yours or Clever Cowgirl's content would ever think you capable of theft. But Thank You for making this statement video. We live in a World that is run by Dark Souls, spreading confusion and disinformation----and nasty little bits of chaos, whenever they get a chance. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR CHANNEL AND YOUR HORSES AND YOUR FAMILY. BLESS*BLESS*BLESS.
It’s so disappointing people do this. I’m glad she noticed and let me know. It’s really embarrassing for me!
I do limited internet, but I do watch The Clever Cowgirl and up until this moment of writing I had been concerned and worried about her. There should be a better way for people like myself to find these things out. This effects everyone ⚠
Great clarifying video for people who didn't get how AWFUL this is for both of you..(you got it x2!)
Hope the imposter reposts this video too! 😂
Hope this clears up SOON 🤞
Go hug Theodore 🐎
I just did a test to see if they will repost a short I just posted.😂 🤭
sounds like someone is jealous of your life and is delusional. keep up the good work.
Britta I am happy to vouch for you being you! Can someone do a step by step for reporting the TikTok account? So sorry this happened 😢
Haha thanks Laurie! This is the link: www.tiktok.com/@theprojectequestrian
It’s probably easier to find the report tab on a desktop -
I can’t remember off the top of my head!
PS, Minue says hi 🐾
I follow you both! I was confused too! The cheek of it stealing your content! 😮
So frustrating and embarrassing🤦♀️
I follow both as well, and our ability to reach each other is under threat. This a dangerous condition for our communications. ⚠
Awww I am so glad my two favorite utubers know each other !!! ❤️💯🐴
I sure wish these platforms would take some responsibility and remove imposters.
I reported the account 2 days ago and commented on many of the videos saying it was a fraudulent account. I hope others do as well.
Thank you!
I have been a subscriber of both of these channels and am appalled that this has happened to both women! You are both excellent channels and do not deserve to be put through this! I have watched both of you work so hard to put great content out there! Love and Blessings!
Thank you! It’s so frustrating and embarrassing, having my name smeared😫
Oh lord what a headache. Sad.
RUclips will crack down in a NY minute, if it's something that goes against their narrative. But stolen content is really common, especially for "shorts", I'm sorry that happened to you.
So true! I’m much prefer the long content. Short form in any platform seems to have a lot more theft.
So glad the two of you were able to sort that out. And so sorry that this happened to you!
Thanks for sharing this - good luck to you getting that fake account closed down! If there is anything we can do to help, please post! I have reported this imposter - hope that helps.
Thank you so much!
If I may say so - I think that, in this environment, every content creator needs to create an account on every single social media platform - whether they really want to participate there or not - in self defense. That would prevent someone else from usurping your identity like what happened to you. You would not need to actively participate on any platforms that don't interest you, just login once every couple of weeks, maybe post something occasionally.
You might also consider embedding a watermark in your content that associates it with "The Project Equestrian", and you might need to put it someplace so that it would still show up if someone cropped larger format video down to a smaller (phone-sized) format. That would help you re-claim your content if some thief tries to steal your content and post in some account with some other name.
I'm really sorry this happened to you - there are many such victims out there, and you happen to be among them. And BTW - FWIW, I've been a subscriber of The Clever Cowgirl for quite awhile now - and learning about this on her channel is what brought me to yours. I just subscribed. :)
Yeah, that is what would’ve been one way to avoid. Although I was avoiding TikTok altogether😅ugh! It’s just not a pretty world 😅 thank you for subscribing!😊
I saw that yesterday on Clever Cowgirl and I was shocked because I knew right away it wasn’t you. I follow both of you on RUclips and you are both not that type of person. I don’t use TikTok
One why I don't use tic-tok so sorry for your lost 😂🎉 GOD 💯 🙏💯💗 Blessing from Iowa, USA
Sorry this happened to you & Clever CG. Wish there was an easy way to "catch" the imposters but I believe there are none (not sure? Terrible IT person ) Keep up the good work and hope you are feeling better soon ❤🧡🌺
I love your channel and I love the CC channel as well. I pray both of you continue to grow your channels and have great success. God bless you. Shame on anyone who steal the content of others.
You're going to have to watermark your videos. Sorry this is happening to you. Love your content. 🩷
YES to the watermark..other channels have had to do that!
Just asking: How does the watermark help if the content stealer on TikTok uses the exact channel name and description?
@@qwertyhophop
Ug, you are correct! They are even using her photo...there must be a way..savvy people..comment in to help!
Friesian Horses had their content stolen and Yvonne solved by putting a watermark on her videos.
@@RenataAngelaGiust Was the channel with stolen content on TikTok and using the same name?
They need to get a life !!
I subscribe to both you and Clever Cowgirl and glad she cleared up there are crappers out there.
I know people with tictock, and will have them report the imposter.
Thank you!
Is there a button on RUclips video upload that restricts others from “clipping”? Is that how they grab and steal content?
They’re unfortunately are multiple ways. I don’t think there’s any way to avoid someone stealing if that is their intention.😫
Bummer! Badly behaving people should stop it!!
Hey lovely ❤ so sorry this is happening to you both. Out of it all I'm sure glad you and the clever Cowgirl have now meet.
I’m not on tic tok, not my go to….RUclips and FB only. But good luck and complain to the authorities. Sucks for you and CC 🤬
First! I’m sorry this is happening. That’s crazy! 😞 how do you like your new building?
Yeah, it’s so annoying. Really embarrassing to have my name smeared. I love my new shed!🤩
@@TheProjectEquestrian yeah…
That’s great!!!
I know you two are legit,, no worries!❤ Why are people so gullible? They need to check themselves before they believe anything these days. Profiles qnd content get stolen ALL THE TIME. They have to stop blaming and pointing fingers.
I watch you and the Clever Cowgirl. ❤ 🐎
🙏❤️
Shoot try having a famous person steal your name and just running with it.... life sucks.
Beautiful Horse ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Theodore says thank you!
@@TheProjectEquestrian you're welcome 😊 🙏 🤗
I can't help you or CC by reporting the imposter on Tik-Tok because I don't have it and don't ever plan on getting it. I don't know how big of a pain it is but please start putting a watermark on all your content. You may want to take a new pic for your profile, add a watermark, then change you're profile pic if you can. Since neither of you had Tik-Tok or watermarks it probably made it easier for them to steal your content. I just found you because of CC's video. So sorry this happened to you both. Wishing you the best.
I am not on tik tok, so I only see you on UTUBE . I have seen thieves from another area and I just remember what the word says. " DO NOT BE DECEIVED GOD IS NOT MOCKED WHATSOEVER YOU SOW SO SHALL YOU REAP. I have handled things by doing this.
Praying for justice!
That's nasty!!
Clever Cowgirl, Free Spirit Equestrian, Nick Johnson channels have all been victims of theft by imposters on various platforms. Verify first before making false accusations. Nick, notably, provided a blueprint for outing the thieves on his YT channel. These creators put heart and soul into their work. Out the imposters wherever they are in your life.
Ugh, why do some make it a priority to steal and lie about other people? Really sad. Is there any way to find out a rough idea of where this person is from the IP address?
I’m not sure. Some of the videos said they were posted from California though.
Sry this happened to you. I don’t have Tik tok for obvious reasons, so therefore I can’t help you🍀🇺🇸
How can they do that in the first place??? I've never liked tiktok.
It’s unfortunately way too easy. They just downloaded my photo and made a profile for me.
Then they downloaded the videos or screen recorded them and uploaded the account 🤦♀️
And yeah, a lot of people do not like TikTok. It certainly brings a lot of problems. It also is a much more hostile environment.
At least from what I have heard and understand😂
any thing can happen in the world today
I try to avoid tic toc
Would there be any way to legally challenge this person under identity theft? Bc we are living in a new technology world, there needs to be new laws to combat this type of theft and that won’t happen until a few RUclipsrs ban together and bring a case up against these kinds of techie criminals.
Disclaimer: I really don’t know how the RUclips community works, however, I just thought if a large enough group could bring this to the attention of law makers, there may be a way to write new laws to protecting your identity and content. We know u all work hard to build your channel, no one should be able to profit from your hard work!
Things like this are typically done in places like New Delhi, China, etc. It's impossible to get to them and their governments don't care.
You know, I didn't know when it happened, but happened to view a video from a year ago from Free Spirit Equestrian where someone stole her WHOLE account! RUclips helped her get her account back after proving it wasn't her, but how scary. Even on FB, it's gotten crazy lately. Imagine if these people put their time to good use. What a crazy world we live in. I'm not on TT often, but will definitely try to find it and report it. I hate bullies and imposters.
Yikes! That must’ve been terrifying for her!😅
I hadn’t heard that
@@TheProjectEquestrian Go to her channel and scroll back a year ago. I JUST saw it this past week. Had no idea it happened! And I view her channel as much as I view yours.
Thank you for helping to understand why The Clever Cowgirl might be absent 💔
One of her horses is quite ill, plus the stress of dealing with social media thieves may explain, thank you
@@arieschick1
I follow her channel closely and her sudden absence seemed to be more than the difficulty dealing with Skeketor's death. Her work should have acknowledged that a horse's death as a part of the work she has chosen to be in. I was concerned for her well being due to her back or other issues. A simple brief reason for an absence should have been made. That this channel brought up another issue making my concern even more hi -lighted. ⾺
Watermark your videos. Tiktok won't do anything and there is no option to report, someone impersonating another creator(just a celebrity)
Wrong for imposter's to make money off your content.
Unfortunately, even watermarking wouldn’t have helped me here. Because they had made an account under my name. It would’ve still looked like me just posting my own content.
@@TheProjectEquestrian Watermarking your content is beneficial , because now they will be violating copyright restrictions. Tiktok and Facebook will do something about that. Just trying to help. We can shut then down, with the right violations.
@@serenityfirefly70 yeah I know I need to do that lol Geez Louise. Add that to my list lol
@@TheProjectEquestrianI'm sorry this is happening to you. It's very frustrating 😑
Spammers suck!🤬 No TikTok for me, but if there's a way for an army of us to go there and report it, pls let us know.👮 (This happens to every YTer I've ever followed.)
It’s ridiculous. Had one of my Raven videos get stolen and posted on Facebook and got over 300,000 views for that scammer 😫 I kind of forgot about that until now😂
The Clever Cowgirl also asked her followers to report this. I reported that person on tiktok - one does NOT need to have an account on tiktok to do so, I don´t have one either. Hopefully lots of followers of both CC and yourself will take the short time to hop on tiktok ...
Thank you!!
There are now 2 “The Project Equestrian” and “Project Equestrian.” Report both?
Watermark you vids! I hear that helps. 🙂
I don't have a tik tok account but I was able to go to the fake tik tok account and report all of the counterfeit CC videos. After seeing this video I know which are yours and will report the rest of the stolen videos. I'm sorry your content was stolen.
I watch you and Clever Cowgirl. You're both great. I won't ever sign on to Tictoc. Hope they get shut down soon.
Thank you! I hope so too
