What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Tredero 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 Tredero - 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
Tredero, a company once lauded for its innovative approach in the financial sector, has found itself embroiled in a series of allegations and controversies that have significantly tarnished its reputation. This investigative piece outlines a pattern of unethical practices, financial mismanagement, and potential fraud that has left investors and stakeholders reeling.
Major Allegations and Red Flags
- Misuse of Investor Funds: The report alleges that Tredero diverted investor funds intended for specific projects into high-risk, speculative ventures without disclosure. This misallocation reportedly led to significant losses, leaving investors with little to no returns.
- Lack of Transparency: Tredero has been accused of withholding critical financial information from investors. The company allegedly failed to provide regular updates or audited financial statements, raising suspicions about its financial health.
- False Promises: The article highlights how Tredero lured investors with inflated projections and guarantees of high returns, which were never realized. This has led to accusations of deceptive marketing and potential securities fraud.
- Regulatory Scrutiny: Tredero is reportedly under investigation by multiple regulatory bodies for potential violations of financial laws. The lack of cooperation with authorities has further fueled suspicions of wrongdoing.
- Whistleblower Retaliation: Former employees have come forward with claims of being silenced or threatened after raising concerns about the company’s practices. This has painted a picture of a corporate culture that prioritizes secrecy over accountability.
Reputational Damage and Motives for Cyber Crime
The allegations against Tredero have severely damaged its credibility. Investors, once confident in the company’s potential, now view it with skepticism. The loss of trust has led to a decline in new investments and a potential exodus of existing stakeholders. For a company reliant on investor confidence, this is a death knell.
Given the gravity of these accusations, Tredero has a strong motive to suppress damaging information. If Tredero were to engage in cybercrime, such as hacking or launching a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack to remove or discredit the article, it would likely be an attempt to control the narrative and mitigate reputational harm. By silencing critics and erasing evidence of misconduct, Tredero could buy time to rebuild its image or avoid legal consequences.
However, such actions would only deepen the company’s troubles. Cybercrime is a serious offense, and any evidence of Tredero’s involvement would further erode trust and invite harsher regulatory penalties. The company’s desperation to suppress the truth underscores the severity of the allegations and the lengths to which it might go to protect its interests. In the court of public opinion, Tredero’s reputation hangs by a thread, and its actions in the coming months will determine whether it can recover or face irreversible collapse.

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

TOTAL SCAM! They sign you up without your consent and bombard you with nonstop calls from different numbers. Do not provide them with any personal information.

When I deposited the initial amount, I was getting calls constantly. After the deposit, the calls stopped, and I lost all my money as trades went against me. The person helping me promised to recover my losses but now avoids my calls. I’m incredibly disappointed.
