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
She emptied out her life savings...
He borrowed against his home...
They promised wealth and freedom...
Now they're standing there alone.
The phone rings late at midnight.
"I don't know what to do."
One more family broken...
One more dream fell through.
That's when the Avengers gather.
Not for glory...
Not for fame.
We stand beside the broken...
And call the scammers by their name.
Chorus
We are...
Danny de Hek...
And The Avengers.
Standing up
When others turn away.
Speaking truth.
Following evidence.
Helping victims...
Find their way.
No more silence.
No more fear.
If you're searching...
We're right here.
Verse 2
We walk into the Zoom rooms...
Where nobody else will go.
Asking all the questions...
They never want to know.
Every wallet tells a story.
Every website leaves a trail.
Every fake success story...
Eventually will fail.
They threaten us with lawsuits.
They try to shut us down.
But truth doesn't disappear...
Just because it makes a sound.
Chorus
We are...
Danny de Hek...
And The Avengers.
Standing where
The light is hard to find.
Independent.
Never purchased.
Truth is always...
On our side.
Bridge
We don't fight people.
We fight deception.
We don't chase headlines.
We chase evidence.
Every screenshot.
Every recording.
Every blockchain transaction.
Every victim.
Matters.
Final Chorus
Danny de Hek...
The Avengers...
One community.
One mission.
Helping people
Before they lose everything.
Standing together.
Speaking louder.
Truth is stronger...
When we stand together.
Ending
If you're running a scam...
We'll find the truth.
If you've been scammed...
We'll help you find your voice.
Because no one...
Should ever lose everything...
To a lie.
