While creating an OnlyFans page is often seen as an easy way to make a lot of cash quickly, there are downsides to the unconventional career path.
People from all walks of life have joined OnlyFans over the years. From retired Olympic athletes and celebrities like Bhad Bhabie, to former teachers and ex Love Island stars, there's an array of people who have turned to racy content creation as a means of getting by.
Many people speak about the perks of being on OnlyFans (the financial success being the biggest), but there's a dark side to the job as well - something which former OnlyFans content creator 'recruiter' Victoria Sinis is lifting the lid on.
Melbourne-based Victoria had worked for marketing and recruitment for an OnlyFans management agency, but quit after just five weeks last year.

During her time in the role she ended up seeing some of the content that was being made and the 'twisted' requests some women were getting from subscribers.
Speaking to news.com.au, Victoria said that some of the 'disturbing' things she saw included women defecating on themselves while another subscriber wanted to see a woman hang on a slightly suspended ledge while another woman stepped on her hands.
"|n real life, they’re not in danger. But in the video, they’re in danger and you step on their fingers and they’re going to be hurt. That’s how twisted it was," she explained.
"There are also requests like can you wear these outfits and be tied up with your hands behind your back?”

Victoria went on to claim that some people in the industry have become 'desensitised' to such things, but she found herself struggling to open her laptop most days.
Victoria has also spoken to Nick Slater on the becoming podcast where she shared more of the alarming things she saw during her brief stint working in the industry.
She said: "There's these things called custom requests and custom requests are when a subscriber can go 'hey, I really want you to do this'."
"A lot of [the requests] are weird stuff," Victoria went on. "Things that were quite common was writing the subscriber's name on the stomachs and, like, 'I own you'."

Victoria is now trying to encourage young girls to not go into OnlyFans content creation.
"I just want to encourage every single person to whenever they feel like posting a provocative photo and putting their value in the likes or in the compliments to just take one minute, and name three things that aren’t the looks that they like about themselves," she shared.
"And if they can’t do that, then maybe don’t post the photo."
