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.

Verse 1
One email changed the story,
A Zoom link dropped into my hands.
Victims searching for tomorrow,
Promises they couldn't understand.
They spoke of hope and justice,
A future built on grand designs.
Super funds and token kingdoms,
But I kept reading every line.
Pre-Chorus
Big claims...
Need real proof.
Big promises...
Need the truth.
Chorus
PLAYGLOBAL...
Show me the evidence.
Show me what's real.
Don't answer with lawyers...
Just show me the deal.
If every claim is honest,
Then nothing needs to hide.
Truth never fears the questions...
It stands up to the light.
Verse 2
I checked the registrations,
The websites and the names.
Read every public document,
Compared every single claim.
An Indian lawyer joined the story,
Saying justice was underway.
I asked for files and case numbers...
I'm still waiting to this day.
Pre-Chorus
Where's the paperwork?
Where's the proof?
Where's the evidence...
To back the truth?
Chorus
PLAYGLOBAL...
Show me the evidence.
Show me what's real.
Don't answer with lawyers...
Just show me the deal.
If every claim is honest,
Then nothing needs to hide.
Truth never fears the questions...
It stands up to the light.
Bridge
I don't follow rumours.
I follow evidence.
I don't chase opinions.
I chase documents.
Every promise...
Every company...
Every trail...
Gets tested...
By the facts.
