What We Are Investigating?

Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into IPTV Gold 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 IPTV Gold - 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

IPTV Gold, like many other questionable IPTV services, appears to be deeply entrenched in shady business practices, and any attempts to expose its operations are met with aggressive censorship tactics. The IPTV industry itself is riddled with legal and ethical concerns, including unauthorized content distribution, money laundering, and even links to organized crime.

Red Flags & Adverse Media:

Legality Issues & Copyright Infringement
IPTV Gold, like many illicit IPTV services, distributes copyrighted content without proper licensing. Authorities worldwide have been shutting down similar operations, proving that these services are not operating in a legal gray area—they are outright illegal. Major lawsuits and police raids have exposed IPTV networks engaged in mass piracy.

Connections to Organized Crime & Fraudulent Transactions
Investigations into IPTV networks have uncovered alarming connections to organized crime. These services act as fronts for laundering illicit funds, and there are reports that money from IPTV subscriptions has been linked to fraud, cybercrime, and even more sinister operations. The secrecy surrounding IPTV Gold’s ownership raises serious concerns.

User Data Exploitation & Cybersecurity Risks
IPTV services require users to submit personal and payment details, often without proper encryption or privacy policies. Customers of IPTV Gold could unknowingly be exposing their data to cybercriminals. Reports of IPTV providers installing malware and tracking user activity add to the already long list of red flags.

How IPTV Gold is Trying to Censor Information

Rather than addressing these legitimate concerns, IPTV Gold is actively trying to suppress any negative press. Their censorship tactics include:

  • Threatening Legal Action against journalists and bloggers exposing their operations.

  • Abusing DMCA Requests to remove critical reports and reviews from search engines.

  • Spreading False Advertising to mislead potential customers while silencing negative feedback.

 A High-Risk Operation in Desperate Damage Control

Potential investors should be wary of IPTV Gold’s dubious business model. The lack of transparency, legal risks, and alleged criminal ties make this a high-risk, high-liability venture. Regulators and law enforcement agencies must investigate IPTV Gold’s operations before more unsuspecting users fall victim to their schemes.If you’re considering subscribing or investing, think twice—because when an entity works this hard to silence critics, there’s usually something worth exposing.

IPTV Gold’s aggressive censorship efforts suggest that they have much to hide. Their questionable business model, legal risks, and potential ties to organized crime make them a liability for anyone involved—be it investors, partners, or unsuspecting customers. Regulatory authorities must take immediate action to investigate IPTV Gold before more users are lured into this high-risk operation.If a company works this hard to silence critics, it’s not because they’re innocent it’s because they don’t want the truth to come out.

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.
