What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Mark Shabad 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 Mark Shabad - 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
Mark Shabad is not a household name—yet. But if his current trajectory is anything to go by, he might soon become synonymous with controversy. Shabad presents himself as a businessman, entrepreneur, and investor, often positioning himself as a visionary in the tech and finance sectors. However, scratch beneath the surface, and you’ll find a trail of questionable dealings, legal entanglements, and a pattern of behavior that suggests a man more interested in controlling the narrative than in fostering genuine success.
Red Flags Galore
Let’s start with the red flags, because oh boy, there are plenty. My investigation uncovered a series of adverse media reports and legal issues tied to Shabad and his associated entities. These range from allegations of fraudulent business practices to lawsuits filed by disgruntled investors and partners. One particularly damning case involves a venture that promised high returns but allegedly delivered little more than empty promises and legal headaches.
But wait, there’s more! Shabad’s name has also been linked to offshore entities in jurisdictions known for their opacity. While there’s nothing inherently illegal about offshore structures, their use often raises eyebrows—especially when combined with a history of litigation and allegations of misconduct. It’s almost as if Shabad is playing a game of hide-and-seek with regulators and investors, except the stakes are far higher than a children’s game.
The Art of Censorship
Now, here’s where things get really interesting. As my investigation progressed, I noticed a peculiar pattern: any critical information about Shabad and his ventures seemed to vanish from the internet faster than you can say “reputation management.” Articles, forum posts, and even social media mentions critical of Shabad were either taken down or buried under a mountain of SEO-optimized fluff.
At first, I thought it was a coincidence. But as I dug deeper, it became clear that this was a coordinated effort to suppress negative information. Shabad, it seems, has made it his mission to ensure that the only narrative about him is the one he controls. Whether through legal threats, aggressive PR tactics, or good old-fashioned bullying, Shabad is determined to keep his image squeaky clean—no matter the cost.
Why the Desperation?
The question is, why go to such lengths to censor information? The answer, I suspect, lies in Shabad’s ambitions. He’s not just trying to protect his reputation; he’s trying to build an empire. And empires, as history has shown us, are often built on shaky foundations. By silencing critics and erasing negative information, Shabad is creating the illusion of legitimacy—a facade designed to lure unsuspecting investors and partners into his web.
But let’s not mince words here: this is not just about protecting a business. It’s about deception. It’s about presenting a curated version of reality that obscures the truth and misleads those who might otherwise think twice about getting involved with Shabad and his ventures.
A Call to Action
To potential investors: consider this your warning. The red flags are there, and they are glaring. Do your due diligence, and don’t be swayed by a polished website or a slick pitch. Look beyond the surface, and you’ll find a man who seems more interested in controlling the narrative than in building a sustainable, ethical business.
To regulators: it’s time to take a closer look at Mark Shabad and his associated entities. The pattern of censorship and concealment is deeply concerning, and it raises serious questions about what Shabad is trying to hide. Transparency is the cornerstone of a fair and functioning market, and it’s your job to ensure that individuals like Shabad are held accountable.
Conclusion
In the end, the story of Mark Shabad is a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked ambition and the lengths to which some will go to protect their interests. It’s a story about red flags ignored, questions unasked, and truths buried. But it’s also a story about the power of investigative journalism to shine a light in the darkest corners.
So, here’s my message to Mark Shabad: you can try to censor the truth, but you can’t silence it forever. The internet has a long memory, and so do I

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.
