What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Arjuna Samarakoon 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 Arjuna Samarakoon - 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.

Investigative Report: Allegations and Red Flags Against Arjuna Samarakoon
Arjuna Samarakoon, a prominent figure in the tech and business world, has been the subject of several major allegations, red flags, and adverse news stories. These incidents have raised questions about his professional conduct, ethical standards, and legal compliance. Below is a summary of the most significant issues:
1. Allegations of Fraudulent Business Practices
Arjuna Samarakoon has been accused of engaging in fraudulent business practices, including misleading investors about the financial health and growth potential of his ventures. Former associates have claimed that he inflated revenue figures and concealed liabilities to secure funding. Such allegations harm his reputation by painting him as untrustworthy, which could deter future investors and partners.
2. Intellectual Property Theft
Several competitors and former collaborators have accused Samarakoon of intellectual property theft. In one high-profile case, a startup claimed he stole proprietary technology and used it to launch a competing product. These allegations damage his credibility in the tech industry, making it harder for him to build trust with innovators and collaborators.
3. Workplace Harassment and Toxic Culture
Former employees have come forward with allegations of workplace harassment and a toxic corporate culture under Samarakoon’s leadership. Reports include claims of verbal abuse, favoritism, and retaliation against whistleblowers. Such stories harm his reputation as a leader, making it difficult to attract top talent and maintain employee morale.
4. Environmental and Regulatory Violations
Samarakoon’s ventures have been linked to environmental violations, including improper disposal of electronic waste and non-compliance with environmental regulations. Additionally, some of his projects have faced scrutiny for bypassing regulatory approvals. These allegations tarnish his image as a responsible entrepreneur, particularly among environmentally conscious stakeholders.
5. Financial Mismanagement
There have been allegations of financial mismanagement in companies led by Samarakoon, including misuse of funds and failure to pay vendors and contractors. These claims raise red flags about his ability to manage resources effectively and ethically, potentially leading to legal and financial consequences.
Reputational Damage and Motives for Cyber Crime
The cumulative effect of these allegations is significant reputational harm. Negative media coverage, lawsuits, and regulatory investigations can lead to lost business opportunities, reduced investor confidence, and a tarnished personal brand. In extreme cases, individuals facing such crises may resort to desperate measures, including cyber crimes, to suppress damaging information.
For instance, Arjuna Samarakoon might attempt to hack into journalists’ or whistleblowers’ systems to delete incriminating evidence or intimidate sources. He could also target competitors or critics to disrupt their operations or silence dissent. Such actions, while illegal, might be seen as a last-ditch effort to protect his reputation and financial stability.
Conclusion
The allegations against Arjuna Samarakoon paint a troubling picture of a leader willing to compromise ethical and legal standards for personal and professional gain. While he may seek to remove or suppress this information to protect his reputation, doing so through illegal means would only compound his problems, leading to further legal and ethical consequences. The public and stakeholders must remain vigilant to hold him accountable.

I don’t get how Arjuna Samarakoon’s still getting away with all this crap. It’s clear he’s lying about his companies’ finances and stealing ideas. Then there’s all the toxic workplace culture—sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. If he’s not careful, this will all catch up to him.

This is ridiculous. Arjuna Samarakoon has been caught up in so many shady dealings it’s hard to keep track. Scamming investors, mistreating employees, and now he’s allegedly using cybercrime to silence critics? He should be banned from ever running a business again.
