What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Sarah Mae Ives 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 Sarah Mae Ives - 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
Sarah Mae Ives, a Canadian entrepreneur who has made quite the name for herself in the realm of social media advertising. With her “No Fluff Ads Manager Program,” Ives promises aspiring business owners the keys to a lucrative career in managing Facebook and Instagram ads. But as I peeled back the layers of her well-crafted online persona, I couldn’t help but uncover a series of red flags and adverse media that potential investors—and indeed, any discerning individual—should be wary of.
The Allure of the “No Fluff” Program
Let’s begin with the basics. Sarah Mae Ives presents herself as a beacon of hope for those disillusioned with the traditional 9-to-5 grind. After leaving her conventional job in 2017, she claims to have built a successful online advertising agency, managing significant ad spends and delivering impressive returns for her clients. Her program, aptly named the “No Fluff Ads Manager Program,” is marketed as a comprehensive mentorship designed to transform novices into proficient ad managers, capable of earning between $10,000 to $30,000 per month.
The Hefty Price Tag
However, this golden ticket to financial freedom comes at a steep price—$6,400, to be exact. For many, this substantial investment might raise eyebrows, especially when considering the absence of a refund policy. Once you’ve handed over your hard-earned cash, there’s no turning back, regardless of your experience or outcomes. Such a rigid stance on refunds is, at the very least, concerning.
Mixed Reviews and Questionable Outcomes
While some participants sing praises of the program, citing supportive communities and practical guidance, others tell a different story. Reports of subpar support, lack of personal mentorship, and long wait times for coaching calls paint a less-than-rosy picture. The program’s sales-driven nature has also been criticized, with some suggesting that the emphasis lies more on selling the course than genuinely equipping students with the necessary skills.
High Expectations vs. Harsh Realities
One of the most tantalizing aspects of Ives’ program is the promise of high income. The marketing materials suggest that students can rake in between $10,000 and $30,000 per month—a figure that, for many, seems too good to pass up. However, such claims can set unrealistic expectations. The world of digital marketing is fiercely competitive, and success is influenced by numerous factors, including work ethic, client acquisition strategies, and market demand. The notion of quick and easy money is, more often than not, a mirage.
The Competitive Landscape of Social Media Ad Agencies
Running a social media ad agency is no walk in the park. The market is saturated, with new players entering the field daily. Constant innovation, campaign optimization, and staying abreast of platform changes are not just recommended—they’re essential. Moreover, managing client relationships adds another layer of complexity. Real-world clients have diverse needs and expectations, and navigating these relationships requires more than just theoretical knowledge.
Alternative Business Models
Given the challenges inherent in managing social media ad agencies, some suggest exploring alternative business models, such as local lead generation. This approach focuses on generating leads for local businesses, often involving building simple websites or landing pages optimized for specific industries. Proponents argue that this model offers a more stable and predictable income stream, with less competition compared to ad management.
The Importance of Due Diligence
Before committing to any program, especially one with a hefty price tag, thorough research is paramount. While Sarah Mae Ives’ program may have its merits, the mixed reviews and high costs warrant caution. Prospective students should weigh the potential benefits against the risks and consider whether this investment aligns with their personal and financial circumstances.
Attempts at Censorship?
Now, here’s where things take an intriguing turn. In the course of my investigation, I encountered murmurs and whispers suggesting that Ives has made efforts to suppress unfavorable reviews and adverse media coverage. While concrete evidence is elusive—perhaps a testament to the effectiveness of such censorship attempts—the very notion raises questions about transparency and accountability. After all, if one’s program is as stellar as claimed, why the need to silence dissenting voices?
Conclusion
Sarah Mae Ives presents herself as a trailblazer in the world of social media advertising, offering a program that promises financial freedom and entrepreneurial success. However, beneath the glossy exterior lie concerns that cannot be ignored. From the exorbitant costs and mixed reviews to the competitive nature of the industry and whispers of censorship, potential investors and participants should approach with caution. In the end, it’s essential to remember that in the world of online entrepreneurship, all that glitters is not gold.

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.
