Cork influencer Rendy Vlad BANNED by Meta and TikTok after ‘prank’ scandal
The social media star, famous for his secret camera glasses, has been wiped from the platforms following bullying allegations.
Cork-based influencer Vladyslav Morhulets, known to his 1.1 million followers as 'Rendy Vlad,' has seen his digital empire crumble after Meta and TikTok removed his accounts. The platforms took action following alleged repeated violations of bullying and harassment policies.
The 21-year-old Ukrainian-born creator was notorious for using smart glasses with built-in cameras to film 'pranks' on unsuspecting members of the public across Cork City. Many people featured in his content were reportedly unaware they were being recorded for social media, according to JOE.ie.
The influencer has faced consistent backlash, including being kicked out of businesses and confronted by the public. One particularly controversial video, which allegedly filmed a woman in a medical emergency, was previously removed for violating rules against sexual abuse, Extra.ie reports.
At the time of the ban, Morhulets boasted 12,000 followers on Instagram alongside his massive TikTok presence. Neither platform appears to be welcoming the prankster back anytime soon.
