Mining City Pushed Back Against Fraud Coverage—And Got Nowhere
A CloudBest employee tried to intimidate an investigative blog into handing over domain information this week. The email reveals how companies accused of fraud attempt to silence critical reporting.
On June 3rd, Wojciech Orych, who claims to be an Information Security Analyst at CloudBest, fired off a message to BehindMLM demanding details about the website's ownership. CloudBest, he explained, provides IT services to Mining City—the company BehindMLM has been covering for financial fraud.
Orych's email was textbook intimidation. He called BehindMLM's articles "negative and fake," accused the blog of damaging Mining City's reputation, and suggested the coverage might constitute criminal slander. He said he needed the domain owner's information to take legal action. He closed by asking for "as much information as you can provide."
What he didn't do was cite a single example of false reporting.
The BehindMLM editor, who chose not to identify himself by name in his response, found the accusation that he wasn't "open to dialogue and cooperation" laughable. He archived the email and moved on. But Orych came back the next day asking for a status update on his "ticket"—apparently unaware that BehindMLM isn't a help desk.
This is standard playbook for companies under investigation for fraud. They hire lawyers, make vague accusations of defamation, demand information, and hope to intimidate reporters into silence. The BehindMLM editor says he gets roughly one such legal threat per month. Most disappear after he offers to address specific claims with evidence. Earlier this month, he received another legal email from an attorney who forgot to include their own email address.
Orych's approach was different only in its clumsiness. His fishing expedition didn't target specific articles or claims. He simply wanted names, addresses, anything to identify and pressure the journalist behind the coverage.
The BehindMLM editor decided to call out the tactic publicly. He stands by his reporting on Mining City, CloudBest, and owner Eyal Avramovich's various shell companies, characterizing them as part of a Ponzi scheme. The coverage, he noted, is grounded in research and facts—not opinion. If Mining City wants to contest the reporting, he said, they should point to specific claims and provide evidence.
They haven't. Instead, they sent someone asking questions that had nothing to do with journalism and everything to do with finding someone to sue.
