An OnlyFans model had her account taken over by hackers who used it to stream ISIS beheadings while demanding she pay a ransom to regain control.
Tina Bean, 22, from Phoenix, Arizona, has lost almost her entire following on the adult photo sharing website and tens of thousands of dollars in subscriptions.
The model said she kept trying to change her password to kick the hackers out of her account but was still unable to take it back over.

OnlyFans is a subscription-based service where people pay to see adult content, and Bean was previously earning $2,000 a month.
However, hackers recently took control of her account and demanded $150, before sharing videos of ISIS executions.
‘They seemed terrifying,’ she told the BBC. ‘I kept deleting them and changing my password but kept getting locked out of my account.’
The hackers then called more than 40 of her fans the N-word and uploaded her photos to a porn sites.
Bean says she was repeatedly hacked over a month before OnlyFans temporarily suspended her account.
Her profile is now back live but she earns just $100 a week, if she is lucky. The platform takes 20% of her earnings in return for hosting her videos and pictures.

Responding to the story, a spokesman for OnlyFans said Bean’s account was vulnerable because she did not have two-factor authentication.
The UK-based company said she did not report the use of the N-word and it was not picked up by the moderation algorithm due to being pluralized.
In April, OnlyFans denied reports it had been hacked after explicit photos of hundreds of performers, including Bella Thorne, were reportedly been leaked online by hackers.
The following month, it emerged that children as young as 13 have been able to set up accounts on the subscription website to share explicit photos.

An investigation by the BBC found that under-18s were able to set up accounts on the adult website using fake documents or IDs belonging to older relatives.
In one instance, a 14-year-old girl was able to set up an account using her grandmother’s passport and bank details, police have said.
OnlyFans is a content subscription service, set up by a UK-based family, which allows content creators to earn money from those who wish to pay to view their content.
The service is popular with sex workers with all the highest paid earners being women.
