'''Fake Fancams''' (also called the '''Fancam Situation''') are [[shock videos]] uploaded and shared on Twitter and Instagram pretending to be a fancam video (a clip made and uploaded by fans to promote an artist and/or their music), made for baiting users into watching either a [[screamer]] or disturbing imagery, including but not limited to murder, torture, self-harm, suicide and people getting shot.
