You wire $15,000 to ImageRevive.co, a crisis management firm with slick
branding and five-star reviews.
They reply instantly:
“We’ve handled worse. You’ll be trending neutral in 72 hours.”
They begin crafting your redemption arc:
It works. For a day.
Then the hacker hits them.
DDoS.
Fake reviews flood their Google profile:
“They defend racists.”
“This firm helped cover up cybercrime.”
“Ask them about their own data breach.”
Your rep starts tanking again.
Then… your PR agent messages you directly:
“We’re under attack. We have to distance ourselves. You’re on your own.”
They delete your profile from their client list.
And post a vague statement:
“We do not tolerate hate. We have severed ties.”
You’ve been un-hired.
