Reddit can review threats to disclose intimate media

Reddit's non-consensual intimate media rules address threatening to share as well as actually posting intimate images without consent. A reported threat can therefore be a distinct policy concern even where no intimate file is present in the post.

What to do

  1. Record the exact Reddit post or comment where the threat appears.
  2. Preserve the username, subreddit and relevant surrounding context without repeating the threat publicly.
  3. Open the post or comment overflow menu and select Report.
  4. Choose the Non-Consensual Intimate Media report category.
  5. Answer Reddit's follow-up questions, specifying that the issue is a threat when appropriate.
  6. If the threatening account also posted images, report the distinct posts or links separately.
  7. Save the report reference if provided and review whether the original content remains available.
  8. If someone is extorting or endangering you, prioritize appropriate safety resources alongside platform reporting.
Important: Reporting, acknowledgment, a platform decision, source removal, and search removal are distinct outcomes. A report is not a guarantee of removal.

Threats can violate policy

Reddit's October 2026 guidance explicitly includes threats and solicitation of intimate media, not just attachments.

Safety first

Avoid negotiating through public comments or transmitting more sensitive images to substantiate a report.

Common questions

Do I need a leaked photo to report a threat?

No. Reddit includes threats to share non-consensual intimate material in its rule.

Can someone else report?

Reddit accepts reports of violating posts and comments; answer questions truthfully about your relationship to the content.

Use a coordinated case

Reclaim keeps website removal, Google/search removal, deadlines, verification and monitoring separate so one successful step is not mistaken for complete removal.
