SAMHey, it’s Sam. Bushwick. November 2025. This is the long, no-skip-details version because a lot of you keep asking exactly how my boy Henry figured out his girlfriend Charlotte was secretly running an OnlyFans (and FeetFinder) account making $20k some months. I’m laying every single step out so you know what actually works and what’s a waste of time.
How Henry and Charlotte Even Got Together
Summer 2023. My wedding rooftop in Williamsburg. Charlotte is my wife’s best friend from SUNY – loud laugh, always in gym sets, killer smile. Henry works with me at the dev shop in DUMBO – quiet dude, hoodies, AirPods in 24/7. They meet at the bar, start talking about bad subway lines, swap Instagrams that same night. Two weeks later they’re official. By Christmas they’re splitting rent on a loft in Bushwick. Couple pics every weekend, looking like the Brooklyn dream.
The First Lie That Didn’t Add Up
Charlotte never had a real job. She’d say “I freelance from home” and chill in sweats all day. Henry’s a full-stack developer. He lives in Figma, Notion, GitHub. He knows what freelance looks like. Charlotte never opened a laptop for work. Ever.
Then one random Tuesday night they’re on the couch watching Netflix. Her phone lights up on the coffee table:
PayPal – You received $5,600 from J********
Henry laughs, “Holy shit babe, what client just dropped five racks on a Tuesday night?”
Charlotte grabs the phone lightning fast. “Oh just an Upwork milestone, big project paid early.” Then immediately changes the subject to what they’re ordering from Seamless.
Henry’s brain does the math. Upwork does not drop five grand in one random PayPal on a Tuesday. Red flag number one.
The Slow Drip of Weird Shit
After that he started noticing everything:
- Brand new ring light and two tripods in the bedroom closet
- Phone face-down 24/7, new passcode every three weeks
- Random $800, $1,200, $2,400 deposits popping up
- She’d lock the bathroom door to “take calls”
- Gets jumpy when he walks behind her MacBook
- Never talks about clients, deadlines, nothing
Henry is not some conservative dude. He literally doesn’t care if someone does OnlyFans or sells feet pics. He cares that his girlfriend is hiding something huge.
Henry Goes Full 3 A.M. Detective
He couldn’t sleep. Started googling everything:
- “girlfriend getting random $5k PayPal no job”
- “how to find someone on OnlyFans without username”
- “how to see if someone has secret OnlyFans”
- “big PayPal drops from OnlyFans”
He’s on Reddit (r/OnlyFansAdvice, r/relationships, r/AskNYC), Quora, TikTok comments, asking ChatGPT, asking Gemini, the works. Took notes like it was a damn college paper.
Here’s every single method he tried, in order, and exactly what happened.
Method 1 – OnlyFinder & OnlySearch (Free)
These are the big public directories. You type a city (“Brooklyn” or “New York”) or a niche and scroll hundreds of profiles.
What happened: Total waste. Only shows creators who voluntarily list themselves and add their link. Charlotte never did. Zero results.
Method 2 – Google Lens + Bing Visual Search (Free)
Henry grabbed five recent selfies from her Instagram (the ones with the ring-light glow). Ran reverse image search on both Google and Bing.
What happened: Found the exact same pics on her Twitter, TikTok, and some random Pinterest board. Nothing from OnlyFans or FeetFinder. Those platforms block image crawlers hard.
Method 3 – The “Forgot Password” Trick on OnlyFans (Free)
You go to onlyfans.com, click login, type the person’s known email or phone number, hit “forgot password.” If it says “we sent a reset link” – they have an account tied to that contact.
What happened: Henry tried her main Gmail and the phone number on her Apple Pay. Both came back “no account found.” She was smart – used a burner email he never saw.
Method 4 – Check Bank Statements / Venmo / Cash App / PayPal (Free if you have access)
OnlyFans payouts usually show as “OF something” or random London charges. FeetFinder pays through PayPal or bank transfer.
What happened: Charlotte kept every account separate. Different PayPal, different bank. Henry never saw a single statement.
Method 5 – Spy Apps (mSpy, eyeZy, FlexiSPY, etc.)
Reddit mentions these all the time. They install on the phone and show every app, message, deleted photo.
What happened: Henry looked at the prices ($40–$100 a month) and the sketchy websites. Plus it’s straight-up illegal without consent in New York. He said no way. I agree – don’t do this. It’s creepy and can land you in real trouble.
Method 6 – People-Finder / Reverse Lookup Tools (This is the one that worked)
The big three that kept coming up on every forum:
- Social Catfish
- TruthFinder
- Spokeo
Henry compared prices the same night:
- Social Catfish – $27–$40 per report
- TruthFinder – $28–$30 per month subscription
- Spokeo – 95¢ for a full seven-day trial, unlimited searches
He picked Spokeo because ninety-five cents is literally the price of a bodega coffee. Went straight to spokeo.com, paid with Apple Pay, typed in Charlotte’s cell number (the one getting all those PayPal notifications).
Two minutes later the PDF report downloads to his phone.
What was inside:
- Her full legal name
- Three leaked OnlyFans preview images with the watermark still on them
- One thumbnail clearly from FeetFinder (toenails painted red – he recognized the rug in the background)
- Two old usernames tied to the same phone number
- Her secret payout email (charlottefeet****@proton.me – something he never knew existed)
- Even the approximate join dates
-
That was it. Proof in 120 seconds.
The Night He Showed Her the Report
They had just finished eating Thai from that spot on Wyckoff. Henry poured two glasses of wine, sat her down, opened the PDF on his phone and slid it across the table.
“I didn’t want to snoop like this, but you’ve been hiding something huge and it’s killing me.”
Charlotte looked at the screen for five seconds, face went white, then the tears started.
She told him everything:
- Started OnlyFans six months ago because rent kept going up
- Mostly feet content (apparently that niche pays insane)
- Also on FeetFinder and a couple private Snapchat premium groups
- Clearing $15k–$25k some months
- Kept it secret because she was terrified he’d think she was “that kind of girl” or that he’d judge her
Henry hugged her for like ten minutes straight. He told her he’s not mad about the job at all. He’s mad she didn’t trust him enough to just say it. They stayed up talking till 5 a.m. Laid every card on the table – money, boundaries, future plans.
New rules now:
- All income goes into a joint spreadsheet
- They opened a high-yield savings together
- She still does OnlyFans (Henry even helps her with lighting sometimes)
- Zero secrets policy
They’re honestly stronger than ever.
The 2025 Ranking – What Actually Works vs. What’s Trash
From Henry’s notes and every comment section in NYC:
- Spokeo (95¢ trial) – #1 by a mile
- Social Catfish / TruthFinder – same results, just 30× the price
- Everything else – barely works unless the person is openly promoting
Free tools are 95% useless if the creator is being smart.
Last Thing Henry Said to Me Over Beers Last Week
“Bro, I’m not against sex work. I’m against lies. If your gut is screaming, check. Ninety-five cents and five minutes saved us from a way uglier breakup six months from now.”
That’s the whole story, no filter. If you’re in the same spot, start with the free stuff. Nothing turns up? Drop a dollar on Spokeo. You deserve the truth.
Note from Sam: Henry gave me full consent to share this whole story. For privacy, I changed his and Charlotte’s names, exact neighborhoods, emails, usernames, and any detail that could point back to them. The timeline, the money, the way he found out—everything else is exactly how it went down. Nothing here can trace to the real people.
