WOMEN working at Andrew Tate's sex cam business allegedly had his name tattooed on them.
The controversial influencer and his brother were arrested last week in Romania as part of a probe into human trafficking, rape, and organised crime.
Romanian authorities allege Tate duped women into being recruited for his webcam operation.
Police sources said some of the women working for the business were said to have "owned by Tate" tattooed on them, which was visible on camera, reports The Times.
Sebastian Vieru - who has partnered with Tate in other businesses - claims the influencer's sex cam business was "perfectly legal" in Romania.

He dismissed allegations Tate forced women to work for it.
Vieru also said it was normal for women to have tattoos of their boyfriend's names.
Authorities claim women were taken to the brothers' £600,000 villa on the outskirts of the country's capital Bucharest.
They believe the men lured victims using the "loverboy method" where they would allegedly falsely claim to be in love with the young women.
The women were forced to film porn videos in the compound and were kept under 24/7 house arrest, according to Romanian investigators.
Both Tate brothers deny the allegations against them.
One of Tate's alleged sex trafficking victims was promised marriage when she was lured into his webcam porn racket, a court has heard.
According to the court documents obtained by Gandul from a hearing on December 30, the woman was lured to Romania "by misrepresenting the intention to establish a marriage or cohabitation relationship".
After the woman landed in the country, she was reportedly picked up by a "female accomplice".
She was initially promised she would be living with her "boyfriend".

But then the woman was allegedly told she would be living with other women who work for the two "businessmen" - the Tate brothers.
Prosecutors said the brothers "identified vulnerable people and exploited their needs for affection, trust, stability, creating the impression of a close relationship".
The defendants were also accused of creating the illusion of "feelings of affection".
The brothers had "the role of recruiting people, who were transported and housed in houses in Romania... and the role of supervising and coordinating the entire exploitation activity", the court documents show.
Prosecutors also noted Tate's "attitude of disregard towards women in general, whom he perceives only as a means to earn big easily".
They said allowing Tate and Tristan to walk free "poses a danger to public order".
Controversial Tate initially gained fame after a short-lived appearance on Big Brother.
He was dumped from the reality show after alleged footage of him beating a woman emerged online.
Since then he has sparked revulsion and outrage with a wave of content online.
