Maine Mendoza's management, All Access to Artist, Inc., is seeking help from authorities following the circulation of alleged sex scandal video which it clams to be fabricated.
"We intend to hold those individuals criminally and civilly liable for the damage caused to Ms. Mendoza. We remind the public to be more discerning of the content they see online and to help us take down this voyeuristic and defamatory content," a statement uploaded by Maine's manager, Rams David, on Twitter, of All Access to Artist, Inc.
The talent management assured fans that they are taking all necessary steps to hold the individuals involved accountable and that they are coordinating with the proper government agencies to remove the content online permanently
"It has been digitally manipulated using deepfake technology. Ms. Mendoza is not involved in the said video and neither does she participate in the making of pornographic and other explicit materials," Rams said.
The talent management has "warned" the public not to post, share, or otherwise circulate the video as they will not hesitate to take "appropriate legal action" against any person circulating the same.
The same team has expressed gratitude for the continued "trust and support" of Maine's loyal fans to her.
Maine has denied the issue, saying: "Wtf???? Sobrang kamukha ko kinilabutan ako pero hindi ako to!”
