How long does it take to remove leaks from social media?

Removing leaked content from social media usually takes 1 to 7 days after we report it, depending on the platform. Some platforms, like TikTok and X (Twitter), tend to respond much faster and often remove stolen photos and videos within a day. Others can take around 4 to 5 days to review a report.


This covers leaks on platforms like Reddit, X (Twitter), Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, Snapchat, and Discord.


How long does it take to remove fake accounts from social media?

Fake accounts can take up to two weeks to remove, since platforms often review these more closely. If a fake account is still active after two weeks, we’ll report it again until it’s dealt with.


Social media leak removal, including fake accounts, is included in our Premier and Legend plans. See all Rulta plans and pricing.
