One-star review: Felt like a bait-and-switch

I paid DMCA.com $199 after being told their standard takedown service included a money-back guarantee and that their professional team would review and pursue my case.

Only after payment was I told that I would have to waive my right to that guarantee before they would proceed. I was also expected to provide 10–20 individual URL comparisons myself—or pay another $250 for their team to collect them—even though I had already supplied a detailed investigation linking the cloned website and associated domains to the same Singapore-based operation.

The alternatives then became increasingly expensive: $599 for a trademark case, $599 for Google removal, and a separate paid case for every related domain. We have a UK IPO-registered brand, our website and products have been copied, and we provided the supporting evidence.

When I questioned why the promised refund protection was being removed and what the original $199 actually covered, Paul called and said they would refund the payment and close the case without even attempting the takedown.

My complaint is not that success could not be guaranteed—it is that the terms, protection and costs appeared to change after payment. The whole experience felt like aggressive upselling and a bait-and-switch. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend DMCA.com.

Thanks for the feedback, Damon. I have read the full case file.

Our $199 standard service is a managed copyright notice against one website, and its money-back guarantee was never removed. You asked for something larger, a full-site removal across several linked domains plus Google delisting, which is a non-standard request priced separately. The trademark, Google and evidence-collection prices were options, not conditions, and taking the refund was one of those options. When you told us you would not waive the guarantee, we honoured it and closed the case with nothing filed and nothing billed.

Where we fell short was timing. When we told you the $199 was refundable, we should have said in the same message that a whole-site multi-domain removal sits outside that service. That is on us and I am working on changing how we explain it.

If you want to revisit a single domain on the standard path, you can email me directly at takedowns@dmca.com with your case number.

Kind Regards,

DMCA HELPED ME OUT BIG TIME

I have a London Lifestyle Blog; I have worked with DMCA twice. The first time, my entire blog was cloned, and they had purchased a name very similar to mine. Luckily, we discovered this had happened during the Christmas period, which made it very stressful. That's when I discovered DMCA; they worked quickly to take down the offending website. That's when I purchased the badge to place on my website. Then, a few years later, in 2026, they contacted me about a website that had scraped my entire website and the badge! I paid them again to take down the offending cloned website, and they did this within a few days. The second time it happened was less stressful because I knew I could leave it to DMCA to handle everything for me. It's such a shame that there are unscrupulous people out there trying to scam everyone by scraping your whole website and passing it off as their own; it does make you feel threatened, and at times you feel like giving up doing anything online. But thankfully, DMCA are around to help you out.

Still Waiting for Action After Payment…Still Waiting for Action After Payment and Follow-Up

After I posted my original review, DMCA.com contacted me and explained that their original $200–$250 estimate was based on the limited scope of the infringement initially provided.

I appreciated their response and tried to resolve the matter constructively.

I clearly told them that I am not primarily seeking a refund if they can provide the takedown service I already paid approximately $199 for.

I proposed a reasonable solution: instead of dealing with 100+ copied tests at once, we could start with 20–25 of the clearest infringing URLs from ieltsmate.vn, evaluate the takedown results, and then discuss how to handle the remaining infringements.

I also made it clear that I am willing to update my Trustpilot review positively if the matter is handled fairly and the takedown service is actually carried out.

However, after my response and follow-up, I am still waiting for meaningful action on the infringing URLs I submitted. To my knowledge, none of the URLs I provided have yet been successfully taken down as a result of this service.

This is disappointing because I chose DMCA.com specifically because of its reputation as a professional copyright protection company.

I am not asking for anything unreasonable. I simply want DMCA.com to either:

1. Proceed with the takedown service for a reasonable number of the infringement URLs under the approximately $199 I have already paid; or

2. Refund my payment if they are unable or unwilling to provide the service.

I hope DMCA.com management will review Takedown Notice #974498 and help resolve this professionally.

I will continue to update this review fairly and transparently based on how DMCA.com handles the case from this point forward.

I genuinely hope my next update can be a positive one.

Thank you DMCA!

DMCA has helped me get through one of the toughest periods in my life.
They handled my cases so efficiently and made me feel so comfortable during the process.
I really can’t thank them enough for all they have done for me.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Waste of time with no results

Despite paying nearly $200, they kept sending notices that were not getting answers, rince and repeat until they essentially turned around to me and said 'time's up'.

To make it worse, they offered additional help that would cost an extra $100 and I had waive my rights for a refund and rely on the team's 'good faith'. Even worse, the options were not guranteed so it was not worth it.

The only decent thing about it was the fact I could get my money back.

Hi William,

Thank you for your feedback, I can certainly understand this was a frustrating situation.

Your case was actively worked over the full standard takedown period, including repeated filings, follow-ups, and escalation through verified hosting channels. Unfortunately, some sites are slow or unresponsive despite these efforts, which is why our process allows time for multiple attempts before assessing next steps.

As outlined, when a case reaches the end of this process without compliance, clients have the option of a refund or to continue with additional work outside of the guarantee. In your case, your refund was processed in full.

It’s also important to note that the infringing content has since been fully removed (404), which indicates that the efforts made were ultimately effective.

We do appreciate your feedback and are always working to improve how we communicate these options more clearly.

Kind Regards

I couldn’t be happier with this DMCA…

I couldn’t be happier with this DMCA takedown service. From the first submission, the process was straightforward, transparent, and handled with real expertise. They quickly identified unauthorized use of our content and took action immediately.

What impressed me most was the speed and communication. We received clear updates throughout the process, and the infringing content was removed far faster than expected. It was obvious we were dealing with a team that understands copyright law and knows exactly how to work with platforms, hosts, and search engines.

If you’re dealing with stolen content, scraped websites, or image misuse and want it handled correctly and efficiently, this service is absolutely worth it. Professional, reliable, and a huge relief to have in your corner. Highly recommend.

DMCA Took Down the Site Stealing My Content

As someone who owns one of the longest-running and most respected rock music websites in the industry, ClassicRockHistory.com, I have used DMCA to protect my content for over 10 years. Recently, a website began stealing and publishing all of my content on its own site. I contacted DMCA, and they went to work on taking the entire site down. It wasnt easy, but they never quit and eventually got the site taken down so that my original content was no longer being stolen. Website owners need companies like this to protect them, and DMCA came through for me.

Outstanding Results and Exceptional Support

We’ve worked with DMCA.com on multiple copyright issues, and they have consistently delivered excellent results. In our most recent case, they even managed to get an entire infringing website taken down by contacting the hosting provider directly.

The team is professional, quick to respond, and very helpful throughout the process. They made everything easy and guided us clearly at every step.

We highly recommend DMCA.com to anyone needing support with copyright protection or website takedowns. Their service truly works. Thank you to the whole team!

SCAM

DONT USE THEM, IT'S A SCAM!
Horrible service. They are taking on FALLS complaints against our website, even though we PAY THEM money to protect US.

DONT USE THEM, IT'S A SCAM!

It's ridiculous, and when you want help, they just simply ask for more money!

Hi Simon
We’re sorry for the confusion. DMCA.com did not send a takedown notice to your website. Our company provides tools and services to help people protect their own content, but we are not a government agency , and we do not issue takedown notices without a client’s explicit instruction.
It looks like the notice you received was not from us, but the use of “DMCA” in the notice caused some misunderstanding. When you contacted us, our team confirmed this and tried to explain the situation.
Another member of your team also reached out for help with a counter notice and received assistance from us. We’re glad we could provide clarity there.
If you would like us to verify any details, please contact us at support@dmca.com. We’re happy to help.

Kind Regards
