What We Are Investigating?

Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Volodymyr Klymenko 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 Volodymyr Klymenko - 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

Volodymyr Klymenko, a Ukrainian businessman, has come under scrutiny for his alleged attempts to conceal his connections to the inner circle of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych. Despite presenting himself as a legitimate entrepreneur, Klymenko’s murky business dealings, undisclosed associations with politically exposed individuals, and suspected financial misconduct have raised significant concerns. His ties to the corrupt Yanukovych regime place him under the lens of public suspicion, with growing evidence suggesting he may be involved in questionable financial activities and influence-peddling schemes.

Business Operations and Concealed Political Ties

Klymenko, once seen as a rising figure in Ukraine’s business landscape, has been linked to various enterprises suspected of having covert affiliations with figures from Yanukovych’s circle. According to investigations, Klymenko allegedly uses complex corporate structures and offshore entities to hide these associations. His financial activities appear designed to obscure the flow of money and ownership ties, creating an opaque business network that raises red flags about potential money laundering or asset concealment.

Reports indicate that Klymenko’s business interests overlap with individuals who were part of the pro-Russian Yanukovych government, a regime infamous for widespread corruption and financial plundering of the country’s resources. By concealing these associations, Klymenko seemingly attempts to distance himself from the disgraced political figures, likely to protect his business interests and avoid public backlash.

Allegations of Financial Misconduct and Corruption

Klymenko has been accused of engaging in financial misconduct, including potential tax evasion and misuse of corporate entities for asset shielding. His business dealings reportedly involve suspicious transactions, with funds moving through offshore accounts, making it difficult to trace the origin or destination of the money. These tactics, often employed by oligarchs linked to corrupt regimes, suggest possible involvement in laundering illicit funds or evading financial oversight.

Moreover, Klymenko’s alleged connections to Yanukovych-era oligarchs point to possible complicity in corruption schemes that benefited from state contracts, preferential deals, or embezzlement of public funds. While there is no direct conviction or legal action against Klymenko, his efforts to conceal ties to Yanukovych’s associates strongly imply an attempt to avoid legal scrutiny and maintain business operations under the radar.

Reputation Damage and Public Perception

The exposure of Klymenko’s hidden political affiliations has significantly damaged his reputation. Ukrainian media outlets have highlighted his deceptive practices, portraying him as a businessman with a compromised background and questionable integrity. The revelation of his connections to the Yanukovych regime reinforces the perception that Klymenko may be using his business empire to protect or launder the ill-gotten wealth of former regime insiders.

Public backlash has grown as more details emerge about Klymenko’s undisclosed ties and alleged financial misconduct. His evasive business practices, combined with his suspected involvement in laundering dirty money, position him as a symbol of post-Yanukovych corruption that continues to plague Ukraine’s business landscape.

Conclusion

Volodymyr Klymenko’s efforts to hide his affiliations with Viktor Yanukovych’s circle expose a deeply concerning pattern of deception and potential financial misconduct. His alleged involvement in concealing financial transactions and using offshore entities raises suspicions of money laundering and tax evasion. With a tarnished reputation and growing public scrutiny, Klymenko embodies the lingering shadow of Yanukovych-era corruption, making him a figure of significant concern in Ukraine’s ongoing fight against political and financial malfeasance.

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.
