Actress Jenna Ortega sister becomes the latest victim of an online scandal with alleged adult leaked Halloween video clickbait.
While the posts did not mention any name of the sister, they did use the fame of actress Jenna Ortega and the Halloween party to make everyone fall for their strategic clickbait.
That’s not all! The alleged tweets claiming to have leaked videos also featured an image collage with Jenna Ortega and some adult site OF video thumbnails, sensationalized with a breaking news format headline.
It seems the Halloween party leaked tape of Jenna Ortega sister originated from the X account (formerly Twitter) @likeknoya, who tweeted on October 24, 2024. Since the post date, the tweet has had over 18 million views and over 58k likes.

Later, on October 27, 2024, another X account with username @1xbreeze posted the same click-baiting image collage. The post now has garnered over 22.2 million views with over 35k post bookmarks, 63k likes, and 1.6k reposts.
A quick scan of both profiles is enough to tell that those accounts solely promote OF content. They use clickbait to gather clicks and engagement, which is beneficial for promoting their regular posts.
Furthermore, the comment section of both posts has multiple comments where they promoted OF content with short clips and thirst trap pictures.
In addition to that, the thumbnail in the featured poster image of alleged Jenna Ortega sister Halloween video is also of adult content that is available to watch in OF.
Thankfully, one user wrote, “This is not Jenna Ortega’s sister and is blatantly lying to get clicks. This is an undisclosed ad and a violation of X’s policies. The original poster is promoting only fans in the comments.” Later, the post also got the same comment in the community note section.
This ain’t the first time X users forged fake leaked video news to gather engagement!
Active users of X already know that there are accounts that use fake sensationalized news posters to farm post engagements.
The X platform focuses on the account’s accumulated engagement parameters (likes, reposts, comments) in the posts to reward the creators.
To farm engagements in the posts, some X users tend to spread misleading news with fake titles. They also use OF content to redirect the audience from X to their respective accounts.

In recent months, news like Naomi Nakamura, Yumi Ito’s hospitalization case, and Moreofmariah’s Subway video trended on the platform, but they were all fake.
So, this time, as well, people are using the name of actress Jenna Ortega to bait people into farming engagement in their posts.
Nevertheless, leveraging the attention that the false post garnered, many other people used the same image poster in their tweets and claimed to have the full length on their site.
However, they are also redirecting users to their articles, which contain nothing even remotely related to what they claimed. Moreover, some of the links they provide are suspicious and can spread malicious packages.
