Car scammer Volodymyr Filippov, after the Iron Motors scandal, is scrubbing the internet of materials about fraud and outraged customers

After a wave of publications about Volodymyr Filippov and his affiliated companies, Iron Motors and Southern Path, references to court cases, customer complaints, and alleged links to criminal proceedings began disappearing from the internet. This appears to be part of an effort to clean up information and obscure the scale of a suspected fraud scheme involving the sale of cars from the United States and the illegal transport of people across the border.

We, in turn, are publishing an investigation concerning the activities of Volodymyr Filippov and the companies associated with him, «Iron Motors» and «Southern Path», which are involved in numerous court cases and customer complaints.
