How to Report It Yourself

Telegram channels and groups are a common way leaked content gets shared. Telegram takes copyright complaints directly, so you can report a public channel or post yourself. This guide shows how, and says plainly what DeleteMyLeaks can and can't do: we don't monitor Telegram.

How to report a Telegram leak yourself

Telegram handles copyright complaints itself, by email and through the Report button in its apps. Its copyright route covers public content: channels, groups, bots and sticker sets anyone can see. Search engines are a separate request for t.me pages that show up in search.

1. Save the Evidence

Copy each t.me link or @username, and take dated screenshots of the posts before you report.

2. Email Telegram

Send a copyright complaint to [email protected] with the links, your original work and the required statements.

3. Report in the App

Use the Report button in any Telegram app on the channel or message as well.

4. Ask Search Engines

If a t.me page shows up in search, file Google's and Bing's copyright removal forms.

Frequently Asked Questions

For a public channel, group, bot or post, email a copyright complaint to [email protected]. Telegram asks that these come from the copyright owner or an agent authorized to act for them. Include the t.me link for each piece of content. All Telegram apps also have a Report button that flags content to Telegram's moderators.

Telegram says it does not process requests about private groups and chats. Its copyright route covers content on its public platform, such as public channels, groups, bots and sticker sets. If files from a private group have been re-posted somewhere public, report those public copies.

The t.me link or @username for each channel, group or post; a description of your original work, such as your OnlyFans page; contact details Telegram can reach you at; a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorized; a statement that the report is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you own the copyright or are authorized to act for the owner; and your signature. Take dated screenshots first, and keep a copy of what you send.

Public channels have t.me preview pages that search engines can index. If one shows up for your name, ask Google to remove it with Google's copyright removal form, and Bing with Bing's form; Bing's results also feed Yahoo and DuckDuckGo. That removes the search result, not the post, so report the post to Telegram too.

Report each new channel to [email protected] with its t.me link, and mention your earlier reports and their dates. Keep a running record of every channel name, link and report you send.

No, and we would rather say so up front. We don't scan Telegram channels or groups, and we don't send reports to Telegram. Our scans search Google (web and images) and Brave for your names, aliases and handles, so we only see pages that search engines have indexed.

Content shared on Telegram can also end up on leak sites that do come up when your names are searched. Our scans find those pages, a person confirms every match before any notice is sent, and we send takedown notices by email or through the site's own form, where the site publishes one. Every notice is rechecked a day, a week and a month later, until the page is gone, while your plan is active, and scheduled re-scans pick up re-uploads posted under your names.
