What We Help You Take Down

Remove digital threats that impersonate your brand and deceive your customers.

Phishing & Fake Domains icon Domain Takedown

Phishing & Fake Domains

Lookalike, typosquatted and phishing domains built to steal your customers’ logins and payments. We target the domain, the hosting and the certificate so the site goes offline — not just behind a warning page.

Fake Social Accounts icon Account Takedown

Fake Social Accounts

Fake brand pages, fake customer-support handles and profiles impersonating your CEO or leadership on Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, YouTube and Telegram.

Harmful Social Content icon Content Takedown

Harmful Social Content

Scam ads, fake giveaways, fraudulent job offers and posts that misuse your logo, trademarks or product images to deceive people.

Rogue APKs icon App Takedown

Rogue APKs

Counterfeit and malicious apps using your name or logo on Google Play, the App Store and third-party APK sites — including fake “update” APKs spread over WhatsApp and SMS.

How C9Lab Takes Threats Down

From validation to removal, every case follows a structured enforcement process.

Validate 01

Detect & Validate

Our analysts confirm the URL, profile or app is live, malicious and targeting your brand, so every request is backed by facts.

Evidence 02

Collect Evidence

We capture screenshots, WHOIS and DNS records, hosting details, page source and proof of brand ownership in a timestamped evidence pack.

Enforcement 03

Submit & Escalate

Requests go to the registrar, host, CDN, platform or app store through the right abuse or legal channel — and escalate if there is no response.

Removal 04

Track Until Removal

We follow up until the threat is offline, confirm removal, and keep watching for re-uploads and mirror sites.

What Clients Say About Our Takedowns

See how organizations are protecting their brands, customers, and digital presence with C9Lab’s expert-led takedown services.

We were finding a new fake login page almost every week, usually after customers had already called us about it. C9Lab took over the whole process — evidence, registrar reports, follow-ups.14 phishing domains came down in our first month, and most were offline before our customers even noticed them

Scammers set up fake “customer care” pages on Instagram and Facebook and were asking our customers for UPI payments to process refunds. We had reported them ourselves for weeks with no result. C9Lab got [11] of those pages removed in 9 days and now flags new ones as soon as they appear.

A fake version of our app was being shared over WhatsApp as a “security update.” C9Lab traced it to three APK download sites and a hosting server, sent the reports with proper evidence, and had every copy offline within 72 hours. The evidence pack also helped us file our cybercrime complaint.

QSafe's proactive approach to brand protection helps us comply with industry regulations and data security standards. This gives us peace of mind knowing that our brand and customer information are secure.

Someone created LinkedIn and WhatsApp profiles using our MD’s name and photo and started messaging our vendors about “urgent payments.” C9Lab removed the LinkedIn profile quickly and helped us report the WhatsApp number. The step-by-step status updates meant I didn’t have to chase anyone.

During our festive sale, fake ads were running with our product photos and a 70% discount that sent people to a copycat store. C9Lab got the ads and the lookalike store taken down during the sale itself. That protected both our customers and our reputation at our busiest time of year.

A typosquatted version of our domain was sending fake appointment and payment emails to patients. C9Lab didn’t just get the site suspended — they also helped with the documentation we needed to recover the domain. It is clear the team understands how registrars actually work.

We run admissions across several countries, and fake admission-offer pages kept appearing every intake season. C9Lab now handles them as they come up. We get a clear log of what was found, when it was reported and when it went offline, which is exactly what our management wanted to see.

One team, one process, from the first report to confirmed removal.
