What to do if you get doxxed
Doxing, or doxxing (from "dox", abbreviation of documents), is the Internet-based practice of researching and publicly broadcasting private or identifying information (especially personally identifying information) about an individual or organization.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The methods employed to acquire this information include searching publicly available databases and social media websites (like Facebook), hacking, and social engineering. It is closely related to Internet vigilantism and hacktivism.
Doxing may be carried out for various reasons, including inflicting harm, harassment, online shaming, extortion, coercion, business analysis, risk analytics, aiding law enforcement or vigilante versions of justice
Etymology
"Doxing" is a neologism that has evolved over its brief history. It comes from a spelling alteration of the abbreviation "docs" (for "documents") and refers to "compiling and releasing a dossier of personal information on someone".[9] Essentially, doxing is revealing and publicizing the records of an individual, which were previously private or difficult to obtain.
The term dox derives from the slang "dropping dox" which, according to Wired writer Mat Honan, was "an old-school revenge tactic that emerged from hacker culture in 1990s". Hackers operating outside the law in that era used the breach of an opponent's anonymity as a means to expose opponents to harassment or legal repercussions.[9]
Consequently, doxing often comes with a negative connotation because it can be a vehicle for revenge via the violation of privacy
Common techniques
Once people have been exposed through doxing, they may be targeted for harassment through methods such as harassment in person, fake signups for mail and pizza deliveries, or through swatting (dispatching armed police to their house through spoofed tips).
A hacker may obtain an individual's dox without making the information public. A hacker may look for this information in order to extort or coerce a known or unknown target. Also, a hacker may harvest a victim's information in order to break into his Internet accounts or to take over their social media accounts.[9]
The victim may also be shown his details as proof that they have been doxed as a form of intimidation. The perpetrator may use this fear to gain power over the victim in order to extort or coerce. Doxing is therefore a standard tactic of online harassment and has been used by people associated with 4chan and in the Gamergate and vaccine controversies
Legal Remedies
There are currently few legal remedies for the victims of doxing.[58] In the United States, there are currently two federal laws that could potentially address the problem of doxing: the Interstate Communications Statute and the Interstate Stalking Statute.[59] However, as one scholar has argued, "[t]hese statutes...are woefully inadequate to prevent doxing because their terms are underinclusive and they are rarely enforced."[59] The Interstate Communications Statute, for example, "only criminalizes explicit threats to kidnap or injure a person."[60] But in many instances of doxing, a doxer may never convey an explicit threat to kidnap or injure, but the victim could still have good reason to be terrified.[60] And the Interstate Stalking Statute "is rarely enforced and it serves only as a hollow protection from online harassment."[61] To illustrate, over three million people are stalked over the internet each year, yet only three people are charged under the Interstate Stalking Statute.[61] Accordingly, "[t]his lack of federal enforcement means that the States must step in if doxing is to be reduced."[61]
South Korea stands as one of few countries with criminal statute that specifically addresses doxing. Article 49 of "Act on promotion of information and communications network utilization, and information protection" prohibits unlawful collection and dissemination of private information such as full name, birth date, address, likeliness, and any other information that is deemed sufficient to identify specific person(s) when viewed in summation, regardless of intent.[62] Other statute also prohibits insulting an individual with language derogatory or profane in nature, and defamation of an individual through dissemination of either misinformation or privileged factual information that may potentially damage an individual's personal reputation or honor. Article 44 of the same act introduced a specific statute, criminalizing defamation through digital media with harsher maximum sentence than usual defamation.

Did he do it? Same happemed with me a month ago
I’ve gotten doxxed and put on doxx bin. Family members were texted as well as pizza getting sent to my house on two occasions and a swat with 5+ cop cars the call being “sister shot and bomb at the door” pretty serious stuff but luckily I took the extra precautions before so my house didn’t get completely searched
I just got doxxed
You both doing better now?

Thank you!
This video was just as helpful as the last one, thank you so much. You've earned yourself another subscriber.
I had a very mentally ill friend who would probably be willing to harm me and my family. They have my information, my school, my address, full name and phone number. They threatened me (well not OBVIOUSLY THREATENING but still hidenly threatening). He's informed me he's able to come to my country and even city any time. Is there anything I can do?
I know your comment is old but I would call the police
Broo thank you me and my friends were fooling around and they social engineered me into dropping my address and have been threatening to doxx me thank you now I can sleep
this happeend to me recently, and i haven't been able to sleep for nights man.. this video has helped me a lot.. i might come back some time for some questions. but thank you so much!!
Update
@@Traertot we found out where he lived, and completely raided his house. i feel so much better now.
@@yukoo500 nice bro awesome to hear!
ty so much i am around 12 and i got doxxed but i was using a account that didn't have any private things not even my other accounts did but i was so scared i didn't know the person at all so i am not sure but now i can finally have a goodnight sleep thanks to you ❤
sir, your room is AWESOME. amazing. very impressive man here
Thank you kindly
Private pics leaked which could ruin your whole life? Nahhhhhh, getting you phone leaked and then hearing it every night over a year is way worse, never interrupt anyone's sleep
U rong
someone impersonated my friend on facebook 3 years ago, and now, my friend suddenly tells me that some people have been texting her on facebook, saying that someone told them that a female they played with in a moba game is my friend's account and they all messaged her, what should she do?
I’m genuinely scared for my life. I joined a discord server and it’s a whole bunch of people in there. Someone in the server lives in the same city as me and was asking me my name. (I didn’t reveal where I am) but someone in the server I think was streaming. And they seemed rich and I overthink and I’m paranoid so I think he’s a well-known streamer and now I’m scared cause Ik he’s read every single message I’ve sent to that server and I don't know what to do. I wish I could go back in time.
thanks dude I got doxxed on discord and my state and age and info stuff got leaked from my roblox “friend” and this actually helped me :D
Same happened to me, my "friend" leaked my phone number and I got doxxed and still am being targeted 3 years later
Targeted how?@@philaproductions4672
Same, I was playing roblox on an alt account (I put fake birth date and user, display that had nothing to do with my main account and I didn’t put any details like my phone number) and someone said they would dox me because I killed them and they came back whilst I was fighting someone. I said “they teamed” and I did (regret) say some mean things because they were being mean aswell. I said they were lying and they said they weren’t lying and then he said he only need my user. I left the game and logged out immediately.
I consider myself famous (kind of) so if I get doxxed, it's done for my youtube career. Idk how to hide my personal info, so I'm nervous. Any tips?
bro a dude got my name, school, and teacher's names got scared at the start this helped calm me down
i didnt even do anything to piss em off i just think they wanted to scare me, they also sounded like they were in highschool (ye i joined a call with them)
i got doxxed on world of warcraft, even found my address some guys showed up at my house. they though it be funny to vandalize my car. climbed over my gate my dogs got their ass. than they went to jail after they got out the hospital
DUDE 💀💀
Is it ever gonna stop recently doxxed and I was scared shitless watching this made me feel better but, more and more people come and say shit then go you know what to do
You can call the cops if you feel like it’s necessary to feel safer ig
@@SCP-38I2 I fixed the problem but police can't fix the problem bro
@@LJmemes1 you can just tell them about the issue and they can do something abt it

thanks alot i was doxxed on discord after a arguement on roblox lmao but ur videos really helped me understand that an ip cant do much. but a question is there anyway they can find my actual address through my ip?
I believe max info anyone can get from a ip address is your ISP location
I've seen people get their exact coordinates leaked
@@REALPEDROGAMEPLAYS im pretty sure that would be like a skilled hacker or something a typical 11 year old kid using some random website to get your ip wont do much besides ddos you probaly but just change your ip
@@coderr_ changing your ip cost money in most cases though
@@REALPEDROGAMEPLAYS it does?
I LOVe your videos they help so much
Glad I could help you out london!
didnt get doxxed but i did click a link of an undercover link so im just making sure and thank you so much i thought i was gonna get swatted or something
lol naw you should be fine bud.
Thank you
Thank you sir, I just got doxxed by some loser who also stole from us lol. Feel a little relieved now.
So me and a girl got into a fight over something very petty, and she and some "hacker" threatened to come to my house. She leaked my ip and info online, however, they got the wrong information because I was using a VPN
LOL that is a good story. Thanks for posting it. =)
nice bro
well it happend to me over some dumb shit
atleast it didn't go as bad unlike my other friend who got fully doxxed and all
its alot to explain
i lost my job 3 weeks ago, and may be getting discharged from the military. i think ive been doxxed. no reason given for anything.
Isn't the military your job? Or are you reserves? Did you do anything to upset anyone to a major degree? How do you know you may get discharged?
@@NevsTechBits reservist, because i was informed today they are removing me from the unit/state, and 3 weeks ago was suspended from civilian work, no notice, still no reason, and best i can think of is someone didnt agree with my right wing views, probably on reddit, did some snooping, found out my handles for other websites and sent posts to my command and job. only thing i can think of for suddenly getting basically fired from both sources of income. nothing illegal either. not even a speeding ticket.
@@showspotter Did you manage to know for sure by now?
i was playing roblox and some guy said he would doxx me and idk what it really means so this video helps alot. also is it possible to get booted offline when you get doxxed?
youre fine, just stay safe. Here on some precautions: Dont tell them ur name
Dont click any links
and follow the tips in the video!
And remember, everything will be ok.
Thx for helping i recently got doxed over a game and he thought i was scamming him thank u
One of my “ friends” that I know irl doxxed me. Does he know my passwords? Or does he just know my street phone and email?
If you never gave him your passwords, he won't know them.
@@NevsTechBits dude im scared because somebody said my city my ip my state and my age what do i do?
Someone used my face and insta to pretend to be me and said a bunch of bad stuff, and now about 10 people are messaging me and my whole family about something i havent even done.
That is happening to me too!
@@Bango9265 really scary times we live in
so basically i got my steam and discord accounts stolen one day by a dude , so then i got both of the account back. today he sent me a friend request from an alt account and his status said i was doxxed and had a link with the word doxxed in it , obviously i didn't click it and just blocked him. i wonder if he can do anything at all.
Ok so one of my friends is a spoiled brat and isn't used to being told no or told when a joke goes too far
So I was dumb enough to show her my face, and she might dox my face, I'm really insecure about my looks so as u can tell I'm not a huge fan of it
She's done this before with an old friend, he got dared to send a picture of him sucking his toe, and he did it, now she has it as her discord profile pic just to mess with him
I'm really paranoid idk what to do
lol Don't worry about it. Not much can be done with a pic of a face. Anyways, even if people knew you they wouldn't go to your house and bother you. That takes way too much energy.
Hey there, I kinda need to hear from you about my exact situation. Im a small RUclipsr, I accidentally leaked some info in my videos which caused people to find my address, my channels extremely controversial which makes people not like me to much. They ordered a item to my house with funny and non threatening messages. What would you do in my situation? I’m guessing the best thing to do is just not react, right?
That’s a troll
If you feel like it’s necessary just call the cops or something
My phone number got dropped on bin what are the odds I get swatted or something?
Guys please help. I'm a young teenager, who scammed someone in mm2 (yes ik it's wrong) for like 10 godlies, I gave them my discord alt so we could do the "trade" and then after I scammed, their friend messaged me and added me into a group with like 4 others, sent me a link to doxbin, and gave me a time limit of 10 minutes to give them back, so I gave them back. Then they wanted me to buy robux and give them it, they were demanding more and wanted me to send a video of me begging them. I didn't I deleted all social media accounts they were aware of but I'm terrified, they said they'd leak my account and kill my family. I can't tell my parents or they'd never trust me again, is this an empty threat?
pov: you was with a guy in a discord call and got doxxed now
@Bleach who is that?
@Bleach ok
lmao u very smart
glasses made me sub
lol thanks bud.
I’m super scared they know where I live
Yeah but are they anywhere near you? Would they have the balls to do anything?
@@NevsTechBits true though I managed to block them and got them banned and warned others
@Who am i how do you block them
oh and the person is from 2b2t on minecraft the most toxic server with no rules
I deleted my discord account and blocked the guy. The guy knew my address. Also I did nothing wrong. I’ve never seen him. He just dm’d me with my adress. Please tell me what to do. I’m kinda really freaking out.
Update?
You okay?
@@NiaTheBlunderer lmao I think he’s dead
This girl blocked and unfriended me for no reason, she has a friend who doxxes and her other friend says she has my phone number but i never gave it out. She has my name from snapchat but nothing else. Her friends are threatening to dox me and their 13. Do u think ill be fine
Sure
Normally nobody cares about someone's personal information online and believe me I know, every time I go to discord I see hundreds of millions of dox, they spam it, but the users that are there doesnt give a shit about it
Hey, can I get some help. These people found my address through paypal and are gonna try ruin my life if I don’t pay them 100$, what do I do.
Tell me the entire story bud. Is this an eBay thing?
@@NevsTechBits discord, due to this i did delete my discord but still worried about getting swatted
How you going?
