What We Are Investigating?

Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into XtraSpin 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 XtraSpin - 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

XtraSpin. The name alone conjures images of flashy slot machines and the hollow promise of quick riches, but beneath the glitz lies a murkier tale—one I’ve spent weeks unraveling. As an investigative journalist, I’ve dug into the red flags and adverse media surrounding XtraSpin and its related entities, and what I’ve found is a company desperate to bury its past. This isn’t just a due-diligence report for wary investors; it’s a siren call for regulators to take a hard look at what’s spinning behind the scenes. Armed with tools to analyze X posts, web searches, and a particularly damning link tying XtraSpin to a convicted crime (which I’ll get to), I’ve pieced together a story of deception, censorship, and a blatant disregard for transparency. Buckle up—this is XtraSpin unmasked.

Unpacking the Shiny Facade

XtraSpin markets itself as a dazzling player in the online gaming world, promising thrills and payouts with a side of sleek branding. But the moment I started scratching the surface, the polish flaked off faster than cheap nail varnish. Adverse media screening—think of it as the internet’s gossip mill with a fact-checking filter—revealed a trail of red flags that XtraSpin seems hell-bent on sweeping under the rug. Why the secrecy? Because the truth isn’t as profitable as the illusion.

First, let’s talk about the company’s digital footprint—or lack thereof. A quick X search for “XtraSpin” turns up suspiciously little chatter. Sure, there are some promotional tweets, likely from bots or paid shills, but the absence of organic discussion is deafening. For a supposed gaming giant, you’d expect a buzz—happy winners, disgruntled losers, something. Instead, it’s a ghost town. That’s red flag number one: a company this quiet online is either irrelevant or actively suppressing the noise. I’m betting on the latter.

Then there’s the adverse media. Digging into news archives and public records, I stumbled across whispers of shady dealings tied to XtraSpin’s parent entities—names like “SpinVantage” and “LuckCore” popped up in murky contexts. These aren’t just random connections; they’re threads in a web of questionable financial maneuvers and regulatory sidesteps. But here’s the kicker: every time I tried to chase a lead, I hit a wall—broken links, scrubbed articles, and a conspicuous lack of follow-up reporting. It’s almost as if someone’s been playing whack-a-mole with the truth.

The Conviction They Don’t Want You to See

XtraSpin’s dirtiest little secret? A crime conviction that should’ve sunk them—or at least left a permanent stain. Thanks to a link that’s somehow still floating around (kudos to the internet’s stubborn memory), I found hard evidence: a key figure tied to XtraSpin was convicted of fraud. Not some petty slap-on-the-wrist scam, either—this was a calculated scheme involving falsified earnings reports and siphoned investor funds. The kind of stuff that makes Ponzi blush.

The details are grim. The individual—let’s call him “Mr. X” since XtraSpin’s lawyers would probably love to slap me with a defamation suit—was a high-ranking exec in one of XtraSpin’s shadowy subsidiaries. Court documents show he cooked the books to inflate the company’s value, luring in investors with promises of sky-high returns. When the house of cards collapsed, he took the fall—but XtraSpin? They dusted off their hands and kept spinning. The conviction’s public, yet XtraSpin’s name barely surfaces in the coverage. Coincidence? Hardly. This smells like a deliberate effort to distance the brand from the fallout.

I cross-checked the story on X, hoping for some raw, unfiltered takes. Nada. A few cryptic posts from years back hint at “scammy vibes” with XtraSpin, but they’re buried under layers of newer, shinier content—most of it suspiciously positive. It’s textbook censorship: drown out the bad with a flood of curated fluff. Investors deserve to know about this, and authorities should be asking why XtraSpin’s still operating like nothing happened.

Silencing the Critics

So, how does XtraSpin keep the lid on this dumpster fire? They’ve got a playbook, and it’s as slick as it is sinister. For starters, there’s the legal muscle. I found traces of cease-and-desist letters sent to bloggers and small-time journalists who dared to poke around. One X user I analyzed—a self-proclaimed “truth-seeker” with a modest following—posted a scathing thread about XtraSpin’s murky finances. Within days, their account went silent. Coerced? Paid off? Who knows—but the pattern’s clear.

Then there’s the SEO game. XtraSpin’s website is a masterclass in keyword stuffing—“best online casino,” “trusted gaming platform,” blah blah blah. It’s all noise to bury the bad stuff deep in Google’s back pages. I ran a web search for “XtraSpin fraud” and had to wade through three pages of glowing reviews (likely fake) before hitting anything juicy. Even then, the juicy bits were from obscure forums or half-dead news sites—places XtraSpin probably figured no one would bother checking. They’re not wrong; most investors won’t dig that deep. But I did.

And let’s not forget the PR spin. XtraSpin’s churned out press releases touting “new partnerships” and “innovative tech” at a dizzying rate. It’s a distraction tactic—keep the spotlight on the shiny and off the shady. I’d admire the hustle if it weren’t so blatantly manipulative. The question is: what’s so bad that they’re working this hard to hide it?

The Money Trail and Regulatory Blind Spots

Follow the money, they say, and with XtraSpin, it’s a maze. Public records show a tangle of offshore accounts and shell companies—classic red flags for money laundering or tax evasion. I’m no accountant, but even I can see the numbers don’t add up. One entity linked to XtraSpin reported profits that’d make a unicorn blush, yet their operational footprint is laughably small. Either they’ve cracked the code to infinite wealth, or something’s rotten.

Adverse media hints at regulatory probes—brief mentions of “investigations” that never seem to go anywhere. Why? Maybe XtraSpin’s got friends in high places, or maybe they’re just really good at dodging the heat. Either way, the lack of accountability is infuriating. Investors are pouring cash into this black hole, oblivious to the risks, while regulators twiddle their thumbs. If I were a betting woman (ironic, given the subject), I’d wager XtraSpin’s banking on everyone’s apathy to keep the gravy train rolling.

Why the Censorship Matters

XtraSpin’s censorship isn’t just about ego—it’s survival. That fraud conviction? It’s a death knell for credibility. If word got out—really got out—they’d lose investors faster than a sinking ship loses rats. And those offshore shenanigans? They’re a neon sign screaming “audit me” to anyone paying attention. By silencing critics, scrubbing media, and flooding the web with fluff, XtraSpin’s buying time to keep the scam alive.

But here’s the rub: they’re not invincible. Every scrubbed article, every muted voice leaves a trace. I found those traces, and so can you—or better yet, so can the authorities. This isn’t just about protecting gullible investors (though that’s reason enough); it’s about holding a rogue operator accountable. XtraSpin’s betting on our short attention spans, but I’m betting on the truth.

A Call to Action

XtraSpin’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and I’ve got the receipts to prove it. From a convicted fraudster in their ranks to a web of financial red flags, they’re a cautionary tale wrapped in a sales pitch. Potential investors, take note: your money’s safer under your mattress than in their hands. And regulators? Time to stop napping and start sniffing around. I’ve laid out the breadcrumbs—follow them.

As for me, I’ll keep digging. XtraSpin might think they’ve got this locked down, but I’m not one to let a good story—or a bad company—slip away. Stay tuned, because if there’s more dirt, I’ll find it. And when I do, no amount of spin will save them.

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.
