An "American Army girl" posting thirst trap images of herself visiting the White House, meeting with President Donald Trump, and mediating various international conflicts turns out to be an AI-generated fake that exists to lure MAGA supporters to an OnlyFans account for foot fetishists, The Daily Beast reported on Thursday.
"The account, 'jessicaa.foster,' has amassed 1 million followers on Instagram, funneling massive engagement from fake photos with President Donald Trump and MAGA-friendly captions to an OnlyFans account selling photos of feet, Fast Company and Marca have discovered," said the report. "While the Instagram photos appear hyper-realistic, aside from incorrect American flags and bizarre U.S. Army casual wear, there are several telltale signs that Jessica is very much not real."
Among many other things, the report noted, "The supposed everyday soldier, whose account began posting in November, has 'met' Trump at least six times this year. She may even be brokering peace in Eastern Europe, snapping 'selfies' with Trump and Russia’s Vladimir Putin, as well as with Trump and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky."
Other images show her "invading" Greenland, something that hasn't actually happened, and going to the Super Bowl in "California," even though "the AI-generated background show[ed] the Kansas City Chiefs, who did not even reach the playoffs last season, as a participant," the report noted.
Despite these obvious signs the person in the pictures isn't real, it's apparently driving a lot of traffic to the adult content site — though it's hard to say exactly how much money has been swindled.
"The absurdity of the posts is not stopping Jessica from receiving hundreds of thousands of likes on each clearly fake photo," said the report. "Fast Company reports that she is turning those Instagram likes into tips on her free-to-subscribe OnlyFans, which add up to hundreds of dollars per post. The AI woman’s OnlyFans username is 'Jessicanextdoor' and claims to be 2.9 miles away from each of her subscribers."
This comes as experts broadly raise alarms about the potential that AI can be used to push misinformation and propaganda for authoritarian regimes.
