DANNY DE HEK
Scammers rely on silence. We make noise.
Welcome to the Avengers Anti-Fraud Alliance, led by Danny de Hek, a New Zealand investigative journalist whose work exposing scams, Ponzi schemes, MLMs and financial fraud has been featured by The New York Times, Bloomberg, The Guardian, ABC Australia, RNZ and others.
This podcast takes you inside real investigations.
We follow the money, identify the people behind fraudulent operations, examine corporate records, court documents, blockchain transactions, marketing material, leaked communications and digital evidence — then put what we find into the public record.
Some investigations begin with a victim contacting me. Others start with an anonymous tip, a suspicious Zoom meeting, a cryptocurrency wallet, a court filing, or an Avenger somewhere in the world saying: “Danny, you need to look at this.”
The Avengers Anti-Fraud Alliance brings together researchers, whistleblowers, victims and ordinary people who are tired of watching scammers operate without scrutiny.
Patreon helps fund that work and gives supporters a closer look behind the investigations — including updates, evidence, developing stories and material that doesn't always fit into a YouTube video.
I don't accept payment to remove investigations. I don't sell reputation management. And when someone I investigate disagrees with my reporting, I give them the opportunity to respond.
The objective is simple:
Investigate. Analyse. Expose. Protect.
If you're a victim, whistleblower or you've discovered something that deserves investigating, get in touch.
Scams thrive in darkness. The Avengers turn on the lights.

G3Unity: Where Does The Money Come From?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
[INTRO]
Three months old...
Seventy-one believers...
One question...
WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?
[VERSE 1]
I followed the trail through the smoke and the screens
A brand-new website selling digital dreams
A matrix of promises wrapped in code
Another shiny highway on a familiar road
The founders stay hidden behind the machine
The future looks bright on a marketing screen
Ads and rewards, lottery spins
But underneath the surface, where does it begin?
[PRE-CHORUS]
They say it's transparent
They say it's secure
But history's taught me
To always look deeper
[CHORUS]
G3 UNITY!
Built on a cycle, built on a chain
G3 UNITY!
Different branding, same old game
G3 UNITY!
Promises rising higher and higher
Show me the revenue feeding the fire!
[VERSE 2]
Twelve positions waiting to be filled
Another new member chasing the thrill
Fifty to sponsor, fifty upstream
Everybody profits while the network gleams
Rank bonuses calling from the top of the wall
Recruit three people, then recruit them all
Bronze to Elite, the ladder climbs high
But what happens when the growth runs dry?
[PRE-CHORUS]
The language evolves
The mechanics remain
A protocol today
What was yesterday's name?
[CHORUS]
G3 UNITY!
Built on a cycle, built on a chain
G3 UNITY!
Different branding, same old game
G3 UNITY!
Promises rising higher and higher
Show me the revenue feeding the fire!
[GUITAR SOLO]
[Solo over chugging riffs]
Ads...
Cycles...
Referrals...
Rewards...
Where's the proof?
Where's the proof?
[BREAKDOWN]
WHO ARE THE ADVERTISERS?
WHO FUNDS THE REWARDS?
WHO FILLS THE POSITIONS?
WHO HOLDS THE CARDS?
Trust the founder!
Trust the code!
I've heard that story before...
[HEAVY BREAKDOWN]
WHERE!
DOES!
THE MONEY!
COME FROM!
WHERE!
DOES!
THE MONEY!
COME FROM!
[FINAL CHORUS]
G3 UNITY!
Three months old and reaching for the sky
G3 UNITY!
Still no answer to the question why
G3 UNITY!
The spotlight's burning brighter than before
Follow the money...
Follow the money...
FOLLOW THE MONEY TO THE CORE!
[OUTRO]
The website glows...
The matrix grows...
The cycle spins...
But the question remains...
Where does the money come from?
