What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into AnyCach over allegations that it has been suppressing critical reviews and unfavorable Google search results by fraudulently misusing DMCA takedown notices. These actions, if proven, could constitute serious legal violations—including impersonation, fraud, and perjury.
We conducted comprehensive analyses of fraudulent copyright takedown requests, meritless legal complaints, and other unlawful efforts to suppress public access to critical information. Our reporting sheds light on the prevalence and modus operandi of a structured censorship network, often funded and used by criminal enterprises, oligarchs and criminal entities seeking to manipulate public perception and bypass AML checks conducted by financial organisations.
The fake DMCA notices in this investigation appears to have been strategically deployed to remove negative content from Google search results illegally. Based on this pattern, we have reasonable grounds to infer that AnyCach - or an entity acting at its behest - is directly or indirectly complicit in this cyber crime.
In most such cases, such ops are executed by rogue, fly-by-night 'Online Reputation Management' agencies acting on behalf of their clients. If evidence establishes that the subject knowingly benefited from or facilitated this scam, it may be deemed an 'accomplice' or an 'accessory' to the crime.
What are they trying to censor
AnyCach. Sounds harmless enough, like a friendly little fintech startup ready to make cross-border transactions seamless. But dig a little deeper—and trust me, I did—and you’ll find that AnyCach is less about innovation and more about obfuscation. This is not your average payment processor. Behind the slick branding and vague language lies a tangle of shell companies, censorship tactics, and regulatory red flags that should make any investor break into a nervous sweat.
In this report, I’ll walk you through how AnyCach and its related entities have gone to considerable lengths to bury the truth—from hijacking copyright law to erase damning articles, to cozying up with known scam facilitators. This isn’t just some rogue tech firm with a few compliance issues. This is a calculated effort to rewrite its public history and silence those of us asking uncomfortable questions.
So buckle up, because what follows isn’t a fintech success story. It’s a due diligence nightmare, dressed in buzzwords and hiding behind fake takedown notices.
Unmasking AnyCach: A Web of Deceit
AnyCach has been linked to various controversies, including associations with fraudulent activities and dubious financial schemes. Reports suggest that the company has undergone several operational changes, possibly to distance itself from past scandals.
One particularly alarming tactic employed by AnyCach involves the use of fake DMCA takedown notices. These are not just minor infractions; they’re deliberate attempts to suppress information and silence critics. By creating counterfeit news websites and attributing negative content to fabricated authors, AnyCach has tried to manipulate the digital narrative in its favor.
The Censorship Playbook: How AnyCach Silences Dissent
The strategy is as audacious as it is unethical. AnyCach, through its hired reputation management firms, crafts counterfeit news sites that mimic legitimate media outlets. These sites republish critical articles, backdate them, and then file DMCA takedown requests against the original publishers. The goal? To erase damaging content from search engine results and public view.
This method not only undermines journalistic integrity but also poses significant risks to investors and the public. By obscuring the truth, AnyCach prevents stakeholders from making informed decisions, potentially leading to financial losses and eroded trust in the fintech sector.
Red Flags and Regulatory Concerns
Beyond censorship, AnyCach’s operations raise several red flags:
-
Associations with Fraudulent Entities: AnyCach has been connected to Estonian scam facilitators, suggesting a pattern of enabling or participating in fraudulent activities.
-
Lack of Transparency: The company’s attempts to rebrand and distance itself from past controversies indicate a reluctance to operate transparently.
-
Manipulation of Legal Processes: The misuse of DMCA takedown notices to suppress legitimate journalism is not just unethical—it’s potentially illegal.
These concerns necessitate immediate attention from regulatory bodies and law enforcement agencies. The fintech industry relies on trust, and entities like AnyCach threaten to erode that foundation.
The Broader Implications: A Threat to Free Speech and Financial Integrity
AnyCach’s actions don’t exist in a vacuum. They reflect a broader trend of financial censorship, where companies exploit legal mechanisms to silence criticism and avoid accountability. This not only hampers free speech but also endangers the financial ecosystem by allowing potentially harmful entities to operate unchecked.
Moreover, the tactics employed by AnyCach set a dangerous precedent. If left unchallenged, other companies might adopt similar strategies, leading to a chilling effect on investigative journalism and public discourse.
Conclusion: A Call to Action
The evidence against AnyCach is compelling and deeply troubling. From manipulating legal processes to suppressing dissent, the company’s actions represent a clear threat to transparency, accountability, and trust in the financial sector.
It’s imperative for regulatory authorities, investors, and the public to scrutinize AnyCach’s operations and hold the company accountable. Only through collective vigilance can we ensure that entities like AnyCach don’t undermine the integrity of our financial systems and the freedom of the press.

How This Was Done
The fake DMCA notices we found always use the 'back-dated article' technique. With this technique, the wrongful notice sender (or copier) creates a copy of a 'true original' article and back-dates it, creating a 'fake original' article (a copy of the true original) that, at first glance, appears to have been published before the true original
What Happens Next?
Based on the feedback, information, and requests received from all relevant parties, our team will formally notify the affected party of the alleged infringement. Following a thorough review, we will submit a counter-notice to reinstate any link that has been removed by Google, in accordance with applicable legal provisions. Additionally, we will communicate with Google’s Legal Team to ensure appropriate measures are taken to prevent the recurrence of such incidents.
