Take down fake banking apps and sites impersonating your fintech

Send us the URL and we manage the removal with the registrar, the host, and where relevant the app store and browser blocklists. We confirm the abuse, file documented notices, and keep your team updated. You only pay if it comes down.

Apple and Google both have in-store channels for reporting impersonation and intellectual-property abuse. A managed takedown adds the evidence packaging and parallel pressure on the developer account, the registrar, and any companion phishing site, which is usually what gets a stubborn listing pulled.

Authorised push payment (APP) fraud is when a customer is tricked into authorizing a payment to a fraudster. In the UK, since 7 October 2024, payment firms must reimburse most APP-fraud victims up to £85,000 per claim, with the cost split 50/50 between the sending and receiving firm. So impersonation that ends in a payment becomes a direct, shared cost.

Increasingly the payment provider, not the customer. In the UK the PSR rules cover authorised push payment fraud, where the customer is tricked into sending the money themselves. Germany has no equivalent reimbursement mandate for that case yet; what § 675u BGB does require is a refund for unauthorised debits, for example when a phishing attacker initiates the transfer. Either way, a fake version of your brand becomes a cost you carry, which is why it pays to remove it fast.

It depends on the registrar and host and how clear the case is. Many are resolved within 24 to 72 hours when evidence is clean; offshore or uncooperative providers take longer. Browser and blocklist flagging runs in parallel, so customers are warned during the window.

Lookalike and typosquatted domains can be caught as they are registered. Our domain monitoring watches the typo, combo, and homoglyph space around your brand and scores new registrations by risk, so you see them before they are weaponised. We then take down the ones that are.
