Our story

Why we started.

It started with a story we kept hearing. A friend of a friend lost their Instagram account overnight — years of posts and a following gone by morning. The platform’s report queue took weeks; the person holding the account spent that time messaging their followers.

Everywhere we looked, social media was one line on a long security checklist — no escalation paths, no recovery playbook. So Thuros does one thing: monitor your accounts and fight to get them back when something goes wrong. No passwords, a real person on every confirmed case, and a 30-day pro-rata money-back guarantee on removal work.

I’m Nick, the CEO. I started Thuros because platform report queues move slowly and most people have no idea what to file, where to send it, or how to escalate when the first report goes nowhere. That is the part we take off your hands. We’re American-owned and operated, accountable to the people we work for.

What we do

A short summary.

Thuros scans Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube for accounts using your name or photos, files the impersonation reports on every fake a person confirms, and re-files when the first decision goes the wrong way. Monitoring plans also check your email against known data breaches.

Checking us

Questions to ask before you pay us anything.

Is Thuros Security legit?

Thuros Security is a New York business in Onondaga County, founded in 2026 by Nicholas (Nick) Skeval. We are young, so check us rather than take our word: read our Trustpilot reviews, read our published impersonation data and how we gathered it, and read our terms, which run under New York law.

Will Thuros ask for my password?

No. Never a password and never a login code. A scan needs your usernames and an email. Before we file a takedown, we check a photo ID so nobody can use us against a real account owner.

How do I pay, and what happens if the fake isn't removed?

Payment runs through Stripe checkout, and we never see your card number. The $179 removal has a 30-day pro-rata guarantee: any confirmed account that is not down within 30 days gets its share of the fee back, and if none come down you get a full refund. The full terms.

Can Thuros guarantee the platform removes the account?

No, and be careful of anyone who says they can. Only Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or YouTube can remove an account. We control the evidence, the filing and the re-filing. Our guarantee is a refund, not a promise of removal.

How do I see what you have filed?

Every removal customer gets a private case page listing each fake account, every report filed on it, the date, and where it stands now.
