Fake actor/director

This person is totally fake

I didn't find even a photo of him. Never seen his name on the series "tash ma tash"

Searched the short films and didn't find any

I am interested in finding out more about how to report fake movies/actors/directors, as well. (New to IMDB community.) I did not realize so many people tried to fake credits on IMDB.

I assume that staff regularly peruse this section and make required changes to the website?

@leesimon1438​ You can start threads here reporting fake pages (group them as one thread if there's several at once) and experienced contributors and/or staff will investigate. Good to do some research of your own first to see if it qualifies as a suspicious name page or title page where you cannot find factual evidence of it being legitimate.

This looks fine to me, I was able to verify some things I checked. I don't think anything is fake on this page.

Some of his award winning shorts are on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@fahadolayan8209/videos

And this is a reliable source with an interview with him: https://www.nyfa.edu/film-school-blog/the-truth-about-new-york-film-academy-acting-alum-fahad-olayan/

Your confusion probably comes from the possible wrong release dates on these a few tash ma tash episodes because in the above New York Film Academy interview it's stated he started acting on that series in 2013 while here he's attached to a few episodes dated early. So either he's attached to some incorrect episodes or episode release dates would need to be fixed.

@mbmb​ then didn't act in Tash ma tash. Unless he has an evidence. The episodes are in correct release date.

OK this says he acted in that series "in the 90s at age 13": https://www.prlog.org/12654150-saudi-arabian-actor-fahad-olayan-makes-his-way-in-hollywood.html

there is probably a typo in nyfa link where 2013 meant 1993

I found this relatively recent episode on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ2WGq-KsdY

maybe you can check credits or check if someone similar to the pictures on nyfa link appear in the episode.

The things I checked that I was able to check with english oncredit credits were correct, had onscreen credits with his name, and I checked some awards from their official sites and were able to verify these too. So I don't think there's anything suspect on this page. I would suggest you to check attached episodes carefully. There may also be a mixup with this person with regards to episodes of this show. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm8430022/
