Hello everyone, I want to share information I discovered while looking into the video BrandonFM made about Fusl in October 2025, titled Exposing a VRChat Developer. What I found is extremely unsettling and shows that Brandon either conducted improper research or maliciously omitted information from the video to help push the narrative he is trying to assert. Please do not harass any person I am about to discuss, as it will solve nothing. This is only meant to raise awareness of Brandon's possible selective reporting or his lack of effectiveness in research.

CONTENT WARNING
This document will touch on sensitive subjects such as grooming and contains NSFW images that I censored after the fact (visible as black overlay with red border). Please keep that in mind before you begin reading. For independent verification purposes, original images can be found across the individually linked sources.

For those who are new, BrandonFM is a YouTube creator known for his documentary-style videos covering criminal activity across online social platforms, recently primarily focusing on VRChat, a social VR game.

Brandon has four channels on YouTube:

BrandonFM his main channel for his documentaries
BFM where he posts special edits, either for advertisement or just entertainment
the weather channel where he posts funny gaming moments with his friends
GRADIENT a channel for his clothing brand, Gradient

Chapter 1: Curiosity

At first, I was simply looking around to see other people's perceptions of the video. I came across a Reddit thread that speaks about the video itself, but one comment I saw sent me down a rabbit hole of degeneracy.

The comment refers directly to the pink-haired girl Brandon interviewed towards the end of the video, even giving a timestamp, referring to her as Anya, and claiming she lies about her age.

There was no proof provided for these claims; however, I kept this comment with me, just in case, and decided to investigate it further. Whether she is lying about her age, I would recommend considering both realities as you look at the rest of this document.

After seeing his interview with the pink-haired girl in the video at the timestamp provided by the Reddit comment, I realized a detail Brandon missed:

He censors her name when he says it but does not blur the Discord name. He shows the screenshot between little.sophia and Fusl. Seeing this, I decided to check the VRChat Discord server to see if I could verify this person is real. I did not find the original conversation in the video; however, I did find a different conversation with the same structure, but under their new name, wholesome_sophia.

For the rest of this investigation, I will refer to her as Sophia.

Chapter 2: Descent

Part 1: Underground

After checking a few other places, I decided to look at 4chan, since Brandon used it for some of his videos in the past. I figured it would be worth a look. Using the site Desuarchive, an archival website for 4chan, I was able to search for posts with keywords rather than just scrolling through every post.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
This is the section where I need to emphasize that anything posted on 4chan should be treated as allegations and be taken with a grain of salt, as the details may not be entirely true. However, after this section, it will return to more substantive evidence. That said, I will begin.

I discovered two groups on 4chan that were tightly related to each other: threads across various boards referring to themselves and each other as /vrg/ (Virtual Reality General) and /vrlg/ (Virtual Reality Lewd General). These are VRChat threads where several VRChat users reside. Brandon knows about these threads because he mentions /vrg/ in his video posted in June of 2024, titled The Disturbing World of VRChat, at around the 1-hour and 8-minute mark of the video.

For simplicity's sake, I'll from here on interchangeably refer to both groups simply as /vrg/.

These groups sometimes organize NSFW events where ERP (Erotic Role Play) often takes place. This is where Sophia comes in. Her first appearance was in early 2023. Sophia began joining the /vrg/ events, allegedly joining off a user named Xano. I could not find any picture evidence of her during this time, but her age was mentioned a handful of times: 15 years old, which matches the timeline of the rest of my findings. No proof was shown that Xano knew she was a minor, but many attacked him anyway. After the revelation that Sophia was a minor, the threads went into a frenzy, with most users calling for Sophia to be kicked from the event.

Sophia was not seen being mentioned again in /vrg/ events until around the end of May/early June 2024, when Sophia would be 16 or 17 if her given age is correct, with pictures showing her engaging in NSFW events with other users.

`VRChat_2024-05-30_18-10-07.651_1920x1080.png`

She began joining again, this time on a user named Cakey who left their status as joinable during one of these NSFW events, sending the threads into outrage once more and demanding she be kicked from all future events. But Cakey saw no issue with this and simply dismissed it as "American outrage culture". (First Discord screenshot is proof this is the same Sophia from Brandon's interview seeing the little.sophia)

Cakey is mainly seen in different loli avatars with blonde hair and blue/green eyes being a common constant.

`VRChat_2023-04-11_00-23-36.709_1920x1080.png`

`VRChat_2023-01-29_06-40-39.495_1920x1080.png`

I discovered a video made by Cakey. How this video ended up on /vrg/ is unknown, but I speculate that Cakey may have posted it himself. The video was meant to be a ban appeal to VRChat asking to be unbanned. In the video, Cakey rambles about their past on VRChat, diving into all the troubles they got into, such as struggles with drug and alcohol abuse, anger issues, toxicity, doxxing, ban evading, and association with other bad actors on the game.

Eventually Cakey directly talks about Sophia and /vrg/ in his video. This is an edited version to show the important parts to this document (full 90-minute video in sources).

For context, this is the video of the "summer dress" situation. These are 2 videos that were joined together (both also in sources).

The issue with Cakey's statement is his constant framing of people taking issue with being friends with Sophia as an "American thing", likely because in Germany the age of consent is somewhere around 14-16 years old dependent on age differences. However, considering that Cakey is in his 30s, him hanging around Sophia in settings where sexual activity is rampant, you start to see a huge issue. Cakey also claims no grooming occurred; however, the preponderance of evidence calls his statement into question.

`VRChat_2025-06-07_19-31-22.820_1920x1080_wrld_5bcde7ae-9bd2-4b38-bf2c-ebb83f5aab3c.png`

`VRChat_2025-06-07_20-56-09.914_1920x1080_wrld_5bcde7ae-9bd2-4b38-bf2c-ebb83f5aab3c.png`

`VRChat_2024-09-08_00-51-58.004_1080x1920.png`

This is where Cakey talks himself into a corner. He claims he did not know her age at first and found out when she was 17, which would further back up the claims she at the very least wasn't telling people about her age. However, after finding out about her being underage, he still talks to her, even saying in the video when Sophia turns 18 there won't be any minors on my friends list, implying that he won't unfriend her despite the sexual context of where they hang out. Seeing that Cakey allegedly ERPed with her, there are two likely scenarios.

A: Cakey had sexual interactions with Sophia when she was a minor unknowingly and after finding out didn't care and continued to speak with her after the fact.

B: Cakey didn't do anything with Sophia when she was a minor and then after finding out waited until she turned 18 and then had sexual interactions with her, in which case there would be a pretty good argument for grooming.

Either way, Cakey looks awful and his banning is completely justified.

When Sophia became aware of /vrg/, she allegedly began posting on the threads herself.

`VRChat_2025-06-19_16-00-00.032_7680x4320_wrld_62f8a46d-dd8f-4c5c-9299-dab1462dae66-ezgif.com-resize.png`

`Screenshot_20250924_044605_Discord.jpg`

Remember the image of her hair being used as a natural censor; it will be relevant later. Many users are speculated and even accused of having inappropriate or sexual interactions with Sophia while she was a minor; however, I won't be going into that in this document to stay focused on Sophia.

But I would like to point out that Brandon could have gone further down this rabbit hole and possibly even exposed an alleged group of groomers hidden within 4chan's depths back in 2024, but did not do so out of either ignorance or lack of care. All of this taking place weeks before the The Disturbing World of VRChat video.

Another post to note on 4chan is a short video of someone confronting Sophia about her age in 2022, asking if she is an adult, and her response being suspicious to say the least.

Further down the thread, we also see a user responding to comments made about Sophia as if they themselves are Sophia.

In this post, this user claims to be Sophia herself and talks about how she ERPed with adults as a minor. She claims she never lied about her age but at the same time never was open about it either when she was "being lewd". While there's no way to confirm this is actually Sophia, I felt this post was necessary to show in this section in case it is Sophia.

You may notice a trend of Sophia having trouble spelling words. This seems to be a common trend across all of her messages, which furthers my belief that this may be her.

Sophia continued to join /vrg/ instances leading all the way up to the time she had her interview with Brandon, consistently engaging in ERP at said events.

Note the timestamp in the original file names of these pictures showing that they were taken after she supposedly turned 18.

`VRChat_2025-08-10_23-31-26.931_1920x1080.png`

There are many more pictures showing Sophia engaging in NSFW events with /vrg/ members that are much more graphic, but for the sake of moving forward, I will leave it at this.

After Brandon published the Exposing a VRChat Developer video, members of /vrg/ immediately recognized Sophia, labeling her a spy for Brandon and demanding she be exiled from any future events and for all members to cut all contact with her, further cementing the fact that the Sophia in /vrg/ and the Sophia in Brandon's video are one and the same.

This reaction from /vrg/ also highlights the nature of the group: they fear Brandon may be watching them, to which the next question would be: Why would they be scared and what do they have to hide?

One more important thing to note is a picture posted on /vrg/ of Batman looking through binoculars dated May 31st, 2025.

Why is this important? Going to Brandon's Twitter account, we can see that Brandon posted the exact same image on his Twitter less than two hours earlier, both having no comment or context given behind the post.

In retrospect, we can assume that the Twitter post is in reference to Brandon looking into Fusl. While there is no way to confirm that the 4chan post is from Brandon, if it is, it would imply that he himself was on the /vrg/ thread and was subtly telling the other users that he's been here to leave a fingerprint behind.

This is the end of the speculative part of the document, and I'd like to continue with presenting more substantive and tightly connected information. This is where we begin to truly show how deep this rabbit hole goes.

Part 2: Unveiling

I found a few posts that gave me the lead I needed. Two of these accounts were a direct callout of Sophia, one of them calling her by her old Discord name and dropping the direct user ID of the VRChat accounts she currently uses. These accounts were called ソフィヤ and ้้้้้้้้้้้้Yui.

The other account was called sophiа.

vrg lets albert groom children.png (cropped for context) — `vrg lets albert groom children.png` (cropped for context)

For this account, I could only find an image of it in another post providing the username. However, finding this account proved difficult because this account (along with all the other accounts) uses Unicode characters for one of many reasons.

I believe in her case it is to obscure characters from being searched on the website while still maintaining the appearance of her preferred name.

After digging around, I was finally able to get a hold of the original user ID. Using a VRChat companion app known as VRCX, I put in the names and IDs and got the accounts shown in these screenshots.

The full bio of the sophiа account reads as follows. Note the little.sophia at the end of the bio, confirming this is definitely her account.

little․sophia

It is important to note that in this bio Sophia claims to be immunocompromised. If this is true, it shows that Sophia is unable to live a normal life and substitutes virtual reality in its place, isolating her from the real world, which would make her a perfect target for predators.

When searching for these usernames or any combination of keywords used in the bio using the search-by-bio feature, the sophiа and ้้้้้้้้้้้้Yui accounts do not come up. This likely means that the accounts were banned, which is further backed up by the default robot avatar being equipped as visible on the VRChat website for the entire duration of my investigation, which the VRChat team sometimes reverts a user to when permanently banning accounts.

The possible connection with the ้้้้้้้้้้้้Yui account is also further backed up by an account used on VRChat's feedback website. Looking at one of her bug reports, we can see a profile picture matching Sophia's avatar, and the HTML source for this page revealing a reference between her username sophiа and a former name yui-hellscythe-1:

Note that, while the account currently has the robot avatar equipped, I found this picture of her at a group event. Take a note of the outfit and avatar she wears.

`VRChat_2024-06-09_20-53-23.590_1920x1080.png`

Chapter 3: Hypocrisy

As you can see on the ソフィヤ account, she is representing a group known as Booth Cuties.

When reading through the description and rules, you can quickly infer that this group is mostly an NSFW/ERP group, and you can only join if you have permission from Sophia herself or someone she trusts, even leaving her Discord name wholesome_sophia in the description. You may also notice that, in the rules of the group, she asks people not to use chibi toddler avatars, suggesting that the use of loli avatars is acceptable as long as they don't cross her personal boundaries.

Looking at the creation date of the group, May 2023, we can infer that, if she was 18 at the time the video was uploaded, it means that a 15 or 16-year-old was running an ERP group for adults.

Let's take a closer look at the owner of the group:

The username contains a strange Unicode character that I couldn't find in the VRCX app without copying and pasting the name, but looking at the bio of this account, you can see that the owner is making a joke about Anya being "cute" in Python code, likely referring to herself.

This lines up with the Reddit post claiming this is Anya (Sophia), as it seems to match the message cadence between Sophia and Fusl, making this now the fourth account that Sophia operates, called ด้้้้้. This account's profile picture shows an avatar that looks very similar to the avatar you saw at the end of Chapter 2 used on the sophiа account, showing the same outfit and the same model. This avatar model, known as Manuka, appears to be Sophia's current avatar of choice:

Avatar-manuka-preportioned-Image.file_abbc5a50-3838-45bf-b6ab-04cea53c74ad.4.png

I also found a picture with this same avatar in what seems to be another /vrg/ group event with some of the same members you saw from the other event pictures.

Now with at least 4 different accounts owned by Sophia, the question is: which account did Brandon interview her on? Well, considering that the sophiа and ้้้้้้้้้้้้Yui accounts are likely banned, that only leaves the ด้้้้้ account (the owner of the Booth Cuties group) and the ソフィヤ account (an account that's representing Booth Cuties), which was created on September 5th, 2025, just weeks before her interview with Brandon.

Regardless of which account she may have used during the interview, it would be extremely easy for Brandon to notice the group, to the point where, if he didn't, it shows a severe lack of due diligence. Looking at a user's groups in VRChat is an easy way to get a glimpse into the type of person you are speaking to, often reflecting their interests, hobbies, opinions, and places they may frequent, which leads to the next thing I have to show you.

While digging around, I found this image of Sophia on the ソフィヤ account.

Going back to the interview with Brandon, we can see that this avatar that Sophia is wearing is an almost identical match with the avatar in the video, with the only exception being the outfit being worn, which could possibly just be a different toggle on the same avatar. Regardless, looking at this image, we can see something that was not so easy to make out in the interview due to the low-quality video done on Brandon's part: looking at the left side of Sophia's head, we can see a hairpin representing the logo for a VRChat world called Just H Party.

`World-JUST-H-PARTY-Image-2017428.file_d6c6e863-69f9-4c8e-b969-7a69b04f6e71.3.png`

This pin can be seen on her head during the interview with Brandon, although it is difficult to make out, which makes you wonder why the video was made to look so low quality in the first place. Here's a screenshot of the video with the logo edited in for comparison:

Just H Party is a popular club world known for events that lean more into NSFW and ERP events. You will later in this document see someone related to Brandon visiting this world, which suggests that Brandon may already be well aware of it.

The further we go down this rabbit hole, the harder it is for Brandon to be able to say that he did not know what kind of person Sophia was when he interviewed her, which further shows his lack of investigative skills or lack of care for her during his investigation.

But the next part will explain why I think Sophia is engaging in the same behavior Brandon is speaking out against, which will further push the point I am trying to make.

On the sophiа account, you can see there is a link to a Twitter account.

Considering that this VRChat account may be permanently banned, she may have completely forgotten about this link, but clicking on it takes us to her Twitter account under the username LittleSophiaVR:

This is where she posts NSFW pictures taken in VRChat using the same avatar you saw here originally using when she first joined the /vrg/ events back in 2024, further solidifying the connection.

All these images depict her in a loli avatar, goading people to follow her NSFW alt lewdsophia, as if the original page is not degenerate and lewd enough.

This other page, however, is follower-only. Note that Twitter offers a translation for this profile's bio text from Japanese to English. Twitter translates the original text 行けるとこまでイッちゃお♡ to Let's cum as far as we can go♡.

Why bring this up? Well, as you can see, her very first post on this Twitter account was taken on April 13th, 2025, which suggests that around the time that Sophia turned 18, she began posting sexual content on her Twitter page, which is where the 4chan posts from before start to become familiar.

The fact that she already had NSFW features on her avatar ready to go when she turned 18 is a further suggestion that she was already involved in this kind of degeneracy long before she turned 18, and if you dig back far enough, you may be able to connect the dots.

Note the dates shown in the posts.

When looking at profiles she follows, you can see that there is a network of other VRChat players who also post content sexualizing loli avatars. I would like to highlight two profiles she is following: one called Cunny News Network and the other CuteAndFunny:

I am not going to go into the content of these profiles; I just want to point out that the word cunny and the combination of the words cute and funny is terminology that people who consume loli content use. This shows that Sophia not only consumes but also actively engages with loli content, something Brandon called people like Sippbox, FPaul, and Fusl predators for allegedly participating in.

While it is sad to see that she was more than likely groomed into this, she is now 18 or 19 years old, so I found it completely hypocritical of Brandon not to address this or maybe even try to get her out of this lifestyle. However, it seems more like Brandon just uses his interview with her to further push his narrative against Fusl, even though she explicitly states she never had any sexual interaction with Fusl according to Brandon, and he never even provided any proof that Fusl knew that Sophia was underage in the first place. For all we know, Fusl could have kicked her out of the friend group after finding out she was a minor.

I feel I should also point out that Brandon cuts the interview off midway. My question is: why not let her say it? Why is a small snippet of a larger conversation being shown? And more importantly, what is NOT being shown? And if Brandon did try to get her to change her lifestyle, he should know she did not listen, as she is still engaging in loli content, and her Booth Cuties group continues to grow, meaning she is still accepting new members and likely still hosting events. Note the varying member count from 171 to 196 over time across the multiple VRCX screenshots.

Quick Update to Chapter 3

Before we move on to the next chapter, I need to share a quick update. Not long after I finished my initial coverage on the Booth Cuties group, on April 11th, 2026, the original Booth Cuties group on VRChat disappeared.

My thought was it was taken down, so I did some digging and found out that it was indeed taken down by VRChat. However, that didn't stop Sophia, as she has since created a new Booth Cuties group.

Same name, same purpose. Instead, this group is completely private. It seems I'm not the only one who took notice of Sophia. You may also notice she's using a different avatar. I also found her Discord server, where you have to fill out an application and be approved and vouched for before being let in.

I wonder why there are so many layers of security. After getting her new group back up to speed, she then made a new account and made it the owner of her new Booth Cuties group and then made 4 other groups.

I believe these groups serve as backups in case this new one gets banned. Her new account brings the investigation full circle, ironically being named little sophia. I will not change what I said in previous chapters to maintain the integrity of the investigation.

Chapter 4: Gamification

Part 1: Influence

This is where we begin to shift away from Sophia and introduce a new person. At the beginning of the Exposing a VRChat Developer video, we see another creator, UrghBla. Before I explain his involvement in the video, I need to tell his backstory to give context.

UrghBla is more recently known for his predator-catching videos, but at the start of UrghBla's career, he made trolling content, a genre that usually involves invoking a negative reaction out of other players for a comedic effect and posting the interaction online.

Another content creator known for this is ProximityChat. While generally trolling content is harmless, because the users being targeted, instead of blocking the creator and moving on, are unable to control their emotions and become irrationally angry, adding to the comedic factor of the content, some creators take advantage of that assumption by deceptively editing out the more toxic aspects of the buildup to the victims' outbursts, a contention that critics raise about trolling content.

However, looking at UrghBla's channel, we can clearly see that UrghBla engages in trolling that goes beyond the typical rage bait, including videos where he goes into lobbies and crashes other users, a form of griefing that is done by using avatars that are intentionally made to overload other user's computers, causing the game to crash. These are clips taken from two of his videos, one titled CRASHING Trans Academy AND Furries 😂 - VRChat Trolling and the second CRASHING ERP and Innocent Players 😂 - VRChat Trolling.

Note that the red room visible in this video is the Just H Party world that I mentioned in the previous chapter.

This is explicitly covered in VRChat's own Creator Guidelines as disrupt any experience or usage of VRChat and will result in account suspension. He also uses other viewer's VRChat accounts as a method to make trolling content, which could be seen as a form of ban evasion if you were already banned (important for later) in a video called VRChat Staff EXPOSED - DEFENDING Predators, BANNING For No Reason - VRChat Deviance.

Note the ban on the viewer states the ban reason is continued and repeated violations of the VRChat Terms of Service, and the livestream that he claims will be linked for people to watch is now privated.

If this is what UrghBla does on his public YouTube channel, imagine what he is doing offline. Back when UrghBla leaned more into trolling content, the genre of trolling on VRChat was more niche, with only a handful of creators making VRChat trolling content. UrghBla eventually started making predator exposition videos where he would conduct a "To Catch a Predator"-like sting operation. These videos were his more popular ones and netted him way more views than his average videos did, thus creating an incentive structure for him to make more.

But as the trolling niche grew and became more mainstream in the game, so too did the VRChat team's reaction to trolling creators: at some point, the VRChat team became more aggressive towards these content creators. On October 30, 2025, on a thread from UrghBla's current Twitter account UrghBIa, a few days after the publication of the Exposing a VRChat Developer video, we can see that UrghBla claims he was permanently banned from VRChat on February 16, 2024 (February 27th appeal rejection email), with no prior bans or warnings, for "exposing predators", and provides a screenshot of the email sent from the trust and safety team on VRChat.

However, reading the contents of the email, we see a different story being told. Notice the part that reads You have chosen to use the time between appeals, which suggests that UrghBla has been actioned multiple times by VRChat. Clearly, someone in this situation is lying. Looking at the dates of the videos where UrghBla is crashing other players, you can see that they were uploaded between the time that he was perma-banned and the time the appeal rejection email was sent, further backing up VRChat staff's statement.

That being said, it should also be mentioned that UrghBla has been banned in more places than just VRChat: he has been banned on Twitter at least two separate times.

The first one simply called UrghBla. Putting this account in the Wayback Machine, we see his mascot he is known for.

The second account was called SecretTips21. On this account, we can see hundreds of tweets he posted showing his unprofessional side. In this tweet in particular, he confirms this by showing the reason his other account got taken down. I would also like to point out this tweet as well, where he is talking about the BrandonFM video, most likely referring to The Disturbing World of VRChat. Keep what he says in mind when reading the second part of this chapter later.

But UrghBla was also banned on TikTok for allegedly view botting and sometimes gets actioned on Discord.

UrghBla claims that this happened because people go out of their way to maliciously attack and slander him online (remember this; it will be important later), but if you don't believe me, you can hear it from him in The Devaluation of Serious Accusations - VRChat Deviance

Further down the same thread, UrghBla claims that he heavily influenced VRChat's culture of not only trolling and rage bait, but exposing predators.

But looking at UrghBla's other Twitter posts, we can see how broad of a scope UrghBla uses to describe a "predator": He lumps many different groups in with predators, including femboys, furries, VTubers, and even people who like anime, showing that UrghBla thinks that he decides what is and isn't acceptable.

But why is UrghBla claiming that he was banned for exposing predators when being banned for excessive trolling seems reasonable? Well, I believe that he is trying to paint himself as this to emulate another creator in a similar situation from a different game: that person being Schlep, a Roblox content creator who is known for the same genre of exposing predators. On August 9th, 2025, Schlep was sent a cease and desist letter from Roblox and was prohibited from using the game permanently.

Schlep made a video about this letter, which received massive support from people online, and since then, Schlep has moved more into real-life predator-catching, something UrghBla has also started doing recently.

I believe that after seeing Schlep's success following the cease and desist letter, he sought to emulate the same kind of story for himself. This is further backed up by UrghBla's other post on August 21st about his banning, 2 weeks after Schlep's video.

However, the difference between Schlep and UrghBla is that Schlep was mostly just known for his content on catching predators, leaving no room to speculate on the nature of his banning, while UrghBla's history is a mix of both trolling and predator catching. UrghBla ignores this factor and asserts that the predator catching is the only reason, which leads me to believe that his goal is to emulate Schlep to grow his platform.

Part 2: Informant

So, with all that said, why is UrghBla important in a doc about BrandonFM? In the video The Disturbing World of VRChat, posted on June 21st, 2024, if we look at the description of the video, we can see the people Brandon credits for helping with his video. As you can see, UrghBla is credited as being the one to provide information for the video, giving context to the archived tweet on the secrettips21 account regarding the video.

With that in mind, one can reasonably assume that this means UrghBla was also aware of the /vrg/ and /vrlg/ threads on 4chan and may have even been the one to tell Brandon about the threads, which, when you think about the context, starts to paint a picture. Let's go back to the Exposing a VRChat Developer video. At the start of the video, Brandon says that the basis for looking into Fusl was a screenshot from a throwaway Twitter account.

Who found this screenshot? None other than UrghBla. Interesting to note is how Brandon describes UrghBla as someone who was banned for mass reporting NSFW content.

It should also be noted that at the 20-second mark, Brandon states that in the last video, referring to The Disturbing World of VRChat, VRChat's response to him was to accuse him of obtaining information through blackmail and doxxing.

While neither side has provided their evidence, it is difficult to see who is telling the truth, but if what the VRChat team is asserting was true, then UrghBla would be the first person to be questioned about those accusations, as he was the one who provided the information for both of these videos.

Going back to the tweet, we can see that it was posted on April 18th, 2024. I went to look for this account; the name wasn't blurred well enough, so I looked it up, and to my surprise, the Twitter account was indeed real and the post was still up.

For obvious reasons, I'm not going to link it, but I want to confirm that the tweet is real.

As you can see, the post has only 135 views, so not many people have seen it; however, in May of 2024, part of this same picture was posted on 4chan on the /vrg/ thread.

This shows yet another instance where Brandon could have seen the information about Fusl.

Considering how few people actually saw this post, it does raise the question of who posted it there. Was it UrghBla? Or was it someone who regulars on /vrg/? Or maybe even the original poster themselves?

I still had a few questions: Who was the poster on the Twitter account, and if they had such damning evidence against Fusl, why post it on a throwaway account instead of reporting to VRChat or handing it over to law enforcement?

Brandon suggests the poster is one of Fusl's exes and even states that he knows exactly who it is and says he's willing to talk to them.

If Brandon knows who it is, then surely he reached out to them at some point, to which logically the next question would be: why didn't they take the opportunity? If it's so obvious who it is, then Fusl would also know who it was as well, so what would be the harm in talking with Brandon after they already posted about it publicly?

Afterwards, we can see a conversation between UrghBla and Hackebein, a close friend of Fusl, along with screenshots of the Element application and Fusl's supposed messages.

UrghBla shows Hackebein and asks to confirm that the screenshot is real, indicating that he himself is unsure whether the picture is real, before he posts his own video regarding Fusl.

Hackebein then questions UrghBla on his motive behind questioning him and if he does follow any journalist standard, to which UrghBla says that he only follows his own standards. Then he tells Hackebein, I absolutely hate the VRChat team and this is something I am pretty convinced is what they would do and so I will do everything in my power to destroy them all.

Now put yourself in Hackebein's shoes. Someone randomly messages you and says they have evidence that your best friend is a bad person and then proceeds to tell you that they intended to destroy the life of not only that friend but everyone else who works for that company, even when they're not involved with it at all, while simultaneously underhandedly threatening to put you in said video, based solely off of a single tweet from a throwaway Twitter account that they themselves are not sure is real or not. Would you think this person is having a conversation with you in good faith?

Let's continue. Hackebein asserts that the screenshot is not real due to the verified badge being off.

Now, while what Hackebein is saying could be untrue and the screenshot could be real, the context of UrghBla's uncertainty is important, and when Hackebein says it's not, rather than trying to verify if it is, he continues to suggest that it is real and it wouldn't make sense if it wasn't, saying, I just dont see how that would be something fake.

This is coming from the same person who says that people lie and make up things about him to get him banned all the time, so why would this screenshot being fake be impossible from his perspective?

Hackebein tells UrghBla to look at the source code or test Element for himself, while UrghBla demands that he just show it to him instead. Hackebein then tells him it's not his job and starts to end the conversation, and UrghBla tries to accuse him of defending his friend, to which Hackebein denies.

The conversation ends; however, UrghBla never posts a video about this and instead continues to post predator-catching videos on his channel like nothing happened until he spoke to Brandon about it over a year later, further showing his indifference to substantial allegations.

To bring this chapter to a close, let's summarize.

UrghBla found the screenshot on April 18, 2024, 2 months after he was permanently banned, implying a possible motive. The next day, he confronts Hackebein, stating that he's "convinced" that Fusl would do this. 2 months later, on June 21st, 2024, the The Disturbing World of VRChat video was posted, in which Sippbox, Fpaul, and Tupper are alleged to have either covered for or participated in some kind of loli content.

But who wasn't mentioned in the video? Fusl. There's no mention of Fusl, not even an allusion to them made, but why? If he was so confident it was true, why not inform the public of this?

Going to the Exposing a VRChat Developer video, which was posted on October 24th, 2025, over a year later, we get more details at the beginning of Chapter 2. At the 2-minute and 45-second mark, we see a screenshot of a message from UrghBla saying, Hey I got something to show you.

This message was sent on May 25th, 2025 (5 days before the Batman pictures), which is where none of this makes sense.

UrghBla had evidence that Fusl was engaging in potentially criminal behavior for over a year, but he never even mentioned it to Brandon, the person responsible for gathering his information for the Disturbing World of VRChat video, and only did so a year later, after telling Hackebein, the closest person to Fusl, that he had said evidence.

If Fusl was guilty and Hackebein was covering for them like UrghBla is implying, it would've given them plenty of time to do damage control and find ways out of the situation. I can only see two possible paths this took.

A: UrghBla didn't tell Brandon about the dirt he had on Fusl for an entire year, didn't go to law enforcement or make a video about it, then, after a year passed, UrghBla finally told Brandon about Fusl, and Brandon was able to put together a video, gather information, interview people, edit, and post the video all within the span of five months.

B: Brandon and UrghBla both knew about Fusl and decided not to talk about it in the first video, not contact law enforcement, and then, after a full year, stage an alleged fake conversation that made it seem like this all just recently came to light in order to avoid obvious criticism.

With the context of the video, Brandon states that after hearing about that tweet, this was the first time he had heard the name Fusl, which would mean that option A is correct. However, that assumes that Brandon is being honest. Neither option paints a good picture of either of them.

All the while, Sophia was allegedly being groomed in the exact same circles that Brandon and UrghBla were investigating, and when Brandon finally got the chance to speak with her, she never got to tell her story, never got to get the help she needed when she was younger, never got pulled out of the life she was allegedly groomed into, and is now an adult who is perpetuating the same pathology that Brandon claims to be against.

She was used for a sound bite, and when Brandon got what he needed, she was cast aside to be forgotten forever until she herself eventually becomes the predator to be exposed and exploited for views.

The gamification of exposing predators.

Chapter 5: Obfuscation

Part 1: Puppets

For this chapter, there are a few other things to add that further suggest Brandon and UrghBla hiding things from the public. These are observations I've made and should be taken with a grain of salt.

Firstly, I'd like to point out this video posted on June 21, 2025, by an account called Sock Puppet LTD. In the video, the creator asks users to send dirt on VRChat employees to a Gmail account goodbyevrchat@gmail.com, offering cash rewards to anyone who provides information once it is "verified".

The day before, on June 20th, 2025, a Twitter account with the same name and profile picture posted an allusion to the video being made and tagged VRChat, likely in hopes VRChat players would stumble into it.

There is also a Discord server associated with this YouTube channel; however, it was not found in the description of the video. It was actually found somewhere else: 4chan. Because of Desuarchive, the link to this Discord was still discoverable. Joining the Discord, we can see it's mostly empty and inactive now.

The account that owns this Discord has the same account name and profile picture as the YouTube channel, and the Discord account created the server on the same day they made the Discord account, on June 18, 2025, 3 days before the YouTube video was posted.

Why does this matter? Well, let's go back to the end of the Exposing a VRChat Developer video, where we see Brandon making a suspiciously similar pitch in his video, offering cash rewards for information on VRChat devs under a different Gmail account, barcodetipoffs@gmail.com.

But this was NOT the first time this email was used in one of Brandon's videos. If we go back to one of Brandon's first videos, The Dark Side of VR, on May 6th, 2022, we see the exact same email being used. (Sorry for quality; this is Brandon's editing.)

While there is no direct link to Brandon being behind the Sock Puppet LTD account, there are a few things that suggest that it likely is him or somehow closely related to him.

Firstly, the edit style comes off as very dramatic and trying to get your attention. The tone and style of the video is similar to how Brandon edits his videos.

Secondly, looking at the account's profile picture, we can see an up-close image of the profile picture on both the YouTube channel and this Discord. There is a blur filter on their face, a recurring trend in Brandon's videos.

This is the original image before the blur was added to it, showing that the image was edited.

Across several of his videos, you can see him using a similar pixelation effect on his and other faces.

Third is a small detail that many may overlook: UrghBla. We can see that UrghBla is inside this server, but one thing to note is WHEN he joined the server: June 19th, 2025, one day before the Twitter post and two days before the publication of the video and 20 minutes before the 4chan post.

This suggests that UrghBla had insider information about this server being made and did not find out about it because of anything publicly announced.

But UrghBla was not the first person to join this server. Discord's own API reveals that there were a few other people who joined before him, those people being veiofthenight, flashieboi, and temloh.

To understand who these people are, we need to join UrghBla's servers called Cult of UrghBla (discord.gg/UrghBla), UrghBla's Warzone (discord.gg/HMjFgjbN), and Parasite Activities (discord.gg/dA8KxA2H; later renamed to Victims of JoshuaFalcon and then replaced by UrghBla's Warzone). If we look for TemLoh and veiofthenight, we can see that they have special roles in his Discord server, showing that he has a degree of trust with these individuals. Important to note is also that they have been members of the Cult of UrghBla server for quite a while.

While FlashieBoi is not in the Cult of UrghBla or Parasite Activities servers, I just want to point out that FlashieBoi and TemLoh are both VRChat content creators on YouTube, known for trolling and predator-catching content respectively, showing that there are content creators involved or at least being given a heads-up in the background.

This is extremely suspicious given that this server was made a month after UrghBla informed Brandon of Fusl.

For the sake of the argument, let's assume for a moment that Brandon runs the Sock Puppet accounts. If one month into investigating Fusl, Brandon is asking other people for information, it would suggest that Brandon didn't have much information to begin with and was offering financial incentives to anyone willing to provide information, which may naturally lead to misinformation being shared.

There are so many questions this would raise about the investigation if this is truly him:

How much of the evidence was obtained through this method?
How was this evidence verified?
Why was it not mentioned in the video?
Why did Brandon use a different email account when he already had one to begin with?
Why did Brandon try so hard to make it appear as a different person or hide that it was him?
Why would he then do the same thing on his own channel after he already finished the investigation?
Why did he stop using the sock puppet?

Only time will tell.

Part 2: Two-Faced

Lastly, I would like to show some livestreams that were made on UrghBla's channel, but first I would like to add some context.

If you go to his channel, you will notice there are not many livestreams. Because most of the time after UrghBla finishes his streams, he immediately privates them, preventing you from viewing their contents.

However, not every stream that he privates is gone forever. Some of his videos are actually edited versions of livestreams, but many are never to be seen again once his stream ends. But why does he private said streams when what he talks about is so important? Well, I'd like to share 3 examples that may answer this question.

The first stream, titled VRCHAT AND TWITTER DRAMA AFTERMATH, was on April 4th, 2026. I would like to highlight from timestamp 50:00 to 1:19:23 and again from 1:38:08 till the end of the stream. We can see Brandon and UrghBla playing games together while on stream. About a week earlier, Brandon joined UrghBla's Cult of UrghBla Discord server with one of his accounts, _bfm (266280775928905739), but left soon after the stream.

(This is the full stream for context purposes; you do not need to watch the full VOD.)

Now, of course, there is nothing wrong with these two playing video games together, but there's something to consider when seeing this: Brandon and UrghBla spending personal time together suggests their relationship is personal, not just professional. They are friends.

Which then begs the questions: how does this friendship affect Brandon's investigations? How much is UrghBla actually involved? How much does Brandon vet UrghBla on the information he provides for his videos? And why is Brandon joining UrghBla's server just to leave again shortly after? Why is he trying not to be seen?

Looking at a clip from a now unlisted video on Brandon's channel called Confessions of a Kid Hacker, we can see that during the time that the Disturbing World of VRChat was being made, Brandon was also working on another video.

Which then makes you further question how much Brandon was actually involved in the investigation and making of these videos. Or did he just take everything that UrghBla told him at face value because of the trust he has for his friend?

The second stream is edited into a video titled The VRChat "trolling" niche is so cooked.... Unfortunately, due to technical issues, I was unable to save the original full stream, but I took this screenshot from the very beginning of the stream.

If you look at the beginning of the video, you can see various cuts at the start of it. This is because UrghBla edits out this part of his stream. Notice how UrghBla is already doxxing TFMJonny's face on the internet before he has shown any proof of grooming or actual predatory behavior. The stream itself wasn't about TFMJonny; he was simply injected at the start of the stream before getting to the actual content.

In the screenshot, you can clearly see what UrghBla was implying with this message. UrghBla did not post this version; he used it to give a nod and a wink to his audience about it and then replaced the bottom part of the post with much softer language before posting the final version on Twitter.

If you look later in the video, you can see UrghBla showing his taskbar with the time and date showing March 30th, 2026, around 7pm EST (the stream ends around 9pm EST on the 30th in his timezone), the actual date of the stream, which matches the timestamp of the tweet as opposed to the release date of the video, March 31st, 2026.

UrghBla has relentlessly posted about TFMJonny, constantly implying that he is a predator because of the nature of his content. He not only posted about him but went out of his way to negatively comment anywhere TFMJonny would be seen as well. Notice his wording such as likely or gotta be show that he is simply speculating and has yet to show any proof of these claims to this day. (These posts are only a handful; there are many more on his page.)

But when and why did UrghBla start this tirade against him? This Twitter post gave me a clue:

UrghBla was referring to TFMJonny's comments on Brandon's Twitter post about the Exposing a VRChat Developer video being uploaded. In the comment, TFMJonny accuses Brandon of using the accusation he makes against Fusl to farm views via outrage. TFMJonny would also later go on to post his own statement on his page regarding Brandon, citing a litany of allegations.

Since this time, UrghBla has talked about him nonstop, which implies the real motive: vengeance. UrghBla may be feigning concern for others to mask his intentions of getting back at a creator who made his friend look bad. And to this day he continues to post about him.

The allegations made against Fusl are much worse than what TFMJonny is accused of; however, UrghBla displays more vitriol towards TFMJonny than even Fusl. Regardless of if TFMJonny's allegations are substantive or not, UrghBla's reaction to it is what is important, as his hostile outbursts against anyone who criticizes him is a common constant you have seen throughout this document.

I speculate that in the future UrghBla will try to make his own video on TFMJonny before this feud ends.

The third stream is titled VRCHAT ＂PRED CATCHERS＂ RANT AND MORE. (Because the stream was privated, here's an archived copy)

In this stream, UrghBla criticizes a VRChat pred catcher channel called CatcherVR. He actually makes good arguments against this group, pointing out how they don't provide sufficient evidence for the alleged predators they exposed. However, the issue is not his criticism but how he responds when he realizes that no one is waiting to talk to him. Instead of simply reaching out through private messaging and coming to an agreement for conversation, he instead shows a link to their Discord to his viewers and raids their Discord.

At first, he tells his audience not to "bombard them with hate" if they join, but as time goes on and UrghBla isn't getting the attention from them he wants, he begins to apply pressure to get them to talk to him by telling his audience to ping all the members and send lots of messages to blow up their notifications, as well as digging through the server looking for anything to latch onto. After speaking to other creators in the server, one of the CatchersVR members finally joins the voice chat and is willing to talk; however, she expresses her distaste towards UrghBla and his community's actions in her server, and she will soon realize that this conversation is anything but cordial.

UrghBla and his viewers begin barraging her with questions and accusations. Sadly, she can't answer many of the questions due to not being involved with the actual process. Even though she agrees with a lot of the criticisms, she's still made to bear the brunt of what's being alleged. While some people are trying to have a genuine conversation, most of them were simply there to antagonize the staff members, constantly attempting to make them angry and derailing the conversation. UrghBla not only allows it to continue but actively encourages it by telling them they're "doing a great job" despite the staff member's pleas for actual feedback.

Soon after, the actual reason for the leader of the group not joining earlier was revealed: she was at work, and trying to rush home to talk, also asking why things couldn't be prearranged ahead of time. But when the conversation was starting to make some progress, UrghBla abruptly leaves the server and ends his stream, mentioning that he didn't try to stop his viewers from causing issues because he thought it was "funny" before the stream ends.

He shows here that his true goal was never to have a real productive conversation or offer constructive criticism. It was to cause chaos, to annoy, harass, and brigade this group, all under the guise of being "concerned" for his streaming content. His points were valid and he had every right to be angry, but it's what he does with that anger that shows you who he really is.

This stream is not available anywhere on his channel in either livestream or video form.

This is an edited version showing what was explained above.

As you can see, UrghBla engages in a repeated pattern of malicious and unprofessional behavior on his streams and then after the fact tries to hide these behaviors, as well as streams that shed light on key information such as his relation to Brandon, from being seen. This shows his intention: obfuscation.

UrghBla knows what he is doing is a violation of the TOS of the respective platforms he uses, so he tries to veil his actions from said platforms. UrghBla confirms this further in a Twitter post. Notice how he again uses the same aggressive undertone in his tweet that he did with TFMJonny. You know what he actually wants to say.

He is hiding his behaviors from these platforms and, by extension, from you, the viewer, as well.

After seeing this tweet, I became curious about how he was actually avoiding getting banned and decided to take another look into his servers.

Firstly, using a Discord plugin called Vencord, we can see who actually owns the servers, and it's not UrghBla but an account called Tapeworm. This is the only other account who has the same role as him. I speculate that this is likely one of his alt accounts which he uses to keep the servers up and continue streaming with should he be suspended/banned on Discord.

Secondly, I found out that the servers have a bot that auto-deletes all messages once they have been up for a set amount of time. The amount of time these messages stay up is different between channels in the two servers. For example, the general chat in Parasite Activities gets deleted after 10 minutes, but for the general chat in Cult of UrghBla, it is set to delete after one week.

UrghBla also confirms this in a conversation with another creator/mod in his server.

You can also see UrghBla weaponizing his audience in order to manufacture outrage, prop up people in his circle, or retaliate against others.

But here is where I made the most alarming discovery: a conversation thread where a user claims a video made about UrghBla was hit with a copyright claim by him, followed by a link to said video. (Conversation in separate screenshots due to chat being cluttered with a large amount of users messaging.)

I decided to enter the link, and I was shocked to see that the video was indeed hit with a copyright claim from UrghBla.

This appears to be a common pattern among creators trying to expose him:

So not only do we see UrghBla doing everything in his power to hide his malicious/bannable offenses, we also see him potentially going out of his way to attack and shut down anyone who dares to call him out for his behavior or hypocrisy.

Alone, these small pieces of information aren't a big deal, but looking at the broader picture and remembering that this is Brandon's informant, it puts everything into perspective.

And even today UrghBla continues his malicious acts in a very recent post on his Discord and YouTube, showing that UrghBla never stopped being a troll and seeks to cause chaos for everyone on the game to satiate his own boredom.

But as for Brandon, his obfuscation goes much deeper than being a troll, such as advertising NFTs, which are most commonly also referred to as crypto scams, as you see in one of this older videos, The Secret World of VRChat.

Going to Brandon's Rarible page provided by him, we can see that no content is available; however, looking in the activity tab, we can see Brandon was minting NFTs up until September of 2023.

Despite Brandon's claims that he would release one every video, after checking his following videos, I was unable to see any other NFTs posted, and Brandon has since scrubbed any mention of them from his Twitter, but the internet never forgets.

And when it comes to Brandon's content, this is where I would like to recommend another content creator by the name K3 and his video titled BrandonFM: Unveiled, where he goes in-depth on BrandonFM's content and criticizes how he conducts his investigations, including: unprofessionalism, dramatizing serious topics like predators to get more attention, working with alleged predators (unknowingly) and then not addressing the issue with the public after the fact, and his disregard towards other creators who helped him with his content.

And ask yourself this: Can we really trust what Brandon and UrghBla are telling us when they don't even tell us the full story?

Chapter 6: Silence

To end off this document, I would like to share some recent developments that many people may not be aware of.

While I was working on this document, I was using a VPN for obvious reasons and noticed that the video about Fusl was entirely unavailable in the EU.

I was suspicious that Fusl might have had something to do with that, so I connected with the VPN from Austria (the country Fusl lives in), and sure enough, I was given a specific reason why this video is unavailable: a privacy complaint.

I found out about this on April 12th, 2026. Now I have to wonder why Brandon has not spoken about this publicly, because if I were in his shoes, I would have been talking about this for hours. It has been almost two months since then, so I don't think there's any way he doesn't know about it at this point.

On June 3rd, 2026, a few days before this document was posted, I circled back to confirm the video was still unavailable only to find that the video, alongside the privacy complaint, had also been hit with a defamation complaint, suggesting that Fusl may have been successful in disproving some of the allegations as defamatory.

There is clearly more to this story than what is being told, and while this investigation was mostly about Brandon and UrghBla, I have a good feeling that more will be uncovered as more people become aware of the situation. But until we hear a response from either Brandon or Fusl, all we can do is wait.

Conclusion

This is all I have to share. There is a possibility that the same people who allegedly groomed Sophia into this ERP cult could still be around her, pulling the strings from behind the scenes, so we must remain ever vigilant and continue to look into this matter.

All of this points to Brandon being either incompetent or deliberately misleading in how he produced this video. I mean, come on, Brandon, the Twitter account is the same name as the Discord she gave you, and it's in the bio of her account too!?

This is why we must always have a critical eye when watching predator exposure content, as the same people who claim to be fighting the evils of the world may use that same moral shield to dodge actual criticism and justify their own actions.

You owe us an explanation, Brandon. We need to know which account you interviewed her on, and if you genuinely want to bring all the truth to light, show us all the evidence and uncut interviews.

To anyone else with relevant evidence or additional information, I urge you to come forward with it, as your contribution may be pivotal in uncovering the full truth.

And Brandon, I hope next time you will take your own advice and...
