Early in 2025 she discovered that someone had spread a sexually explicit rumor about her on an overseas social media platform, posting a fabricated video and audio recording using a different woman as “proof.” In October 2025 the material escalated on WeChat, combining her sales poster with footage of another woman, alongside demeaning AI-generated videos. Her phone number was leaked and she received harassing calls. She filed police reports and 31 complaints to Douyin between October 2025 and April 2026. Police identified a man in Fujian behind one AI-generated video; he received 10 days of administrative detention in October 2025. She filed a civil lawsuit seeking an apology.","tags":["ai-generated-video","deepfake","voice-cloning","online-harassment","defamation","non-consensual-intimate-imagery"],"date_detected":null,"near_miss":null,"root_cause":null,"root_cause_detail":null,"failure_class_detail":null,"responsible_party":null,"adversarial_actor":"external_attacker","input_provenance":null,"time_to_contain":null,"operations_paused":null,"remediation":null,"precursor_events":null},"impact":{"direct_loss_usd":null,"remediation_hours":null,"records_exposed":null,"third_parties_affected_count":null,"severity":"moderate","severity_because":"moderate, because data or systems of others touched, with a bounded scope stated: The fabricated videos and leaked phone number touched the data and systems of others — her contacts, colleagues and customers — with a bounded scope stated.","harm_class":[],"affected_description":"Mu Qianwen, a Porsche sales consultant in Qingdao; her phone number, image and voice; her friends, colleagues and customers","protected_class_involved":null,"data_categories_exposed":["pii"],"loss_range_usd":null,"reversibility":null,"downstream_exposure_count":null},"evidence":{"sources":[{"url":"https://www.sixthtone.com/news/1019071/She Sold 192 Porsches in a Year.
