How Fraudox gets takedown pricing down to $4 per removal
Fraudox Pro Plus is $120/month for 30 successful takedowns, which works out to $4 per confirmed removal when the quota is used.
The cheapest useful takedown is not the cheapest report. It is the cheapest confirmed removal.
That distinction matters. A provider can charge a low fee to submit a form, leave the ticket unanswered, and still count the work as done. For a brand, creator or security team, that is not a result. The result is the fake page, phishing URL, impersonation account, counterfeit app or scam domain being removed, suspended or made inaccessible.
Fraudox prices around that outcome. On Pro Plus, the plan is $120 per month and includes 30 successful takedowns. If the included quota is used, that is $4 per confirmed removal.
The math
The arithmetic is simple:
| Plan | Monthly price | Included successful takedowns | Cost per included successful takedown |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pro | $50 | 10 | $5 |
| Pro Plus | $120 | 30 | $4 |
The important word is successful. A paid takedown counts against the plan only after removal is confirmed. If a filing fails, stalls, or cannot be won, it does not consume the monthly quota.
That makes the price different from a per-submission fee. Per-submission pricing charges for the attempt. Fraudox charges against the plan for the confirmed result.
Why $4 does not mean low-effort
A takedown is rarely one email. A clean case can involve:
- Capturing the target before it changes.
- Proving ownership of the copied brand, person, app or content.
- Identifying the right abuse layer: host, registrar, CDN, app store, marketplace or social platform.
- Filing through the strongest route for that platform.
- Escalating when the first report goes quiet or lands in the wrong queue.
- Verifying the final state after the removal.
The reason the per-removal cost can be low is that the workflow is repeatable. A fake Instagram account, a phishing URL and a counterfeit app each need different evidence, but the operating discipline is the same: target, proof, route, escalation and verification.
Where cheap takedowns usually go wrong
Low-cost services fail when they lower the standard instead of lowering the overhead.
The common failure modes are:
- Charging for submissions instead of removals.
- Filing every case through the same generic form.
- Ignoring the registrar or host layer when a platform report fails.
- Closing a case when a ticket is opened, not when content is gone.
- Asking the customer to rebuild the evidence pack for every target.
That is why the pricing model matters as much as the price. A $4 confirmed removal is useful. A $4 attempt that goes nowhere is just cheap noise.
When the $4 model fits
The $4 per successful takedown math fits customers who see repeat abuse but do not need an enterprise annual platform:
- Creators dealing with cloned profiles or stolen content.
- Small brands hit by fake stores and scam domains.
- SaaS companies with recurring phishing URLs.
- Marketplaces and communities that need a practical abuse queue.
- Agencies handling takedowns for several clients.
For very high-volume programs, custom pricing can still make sense. But for most teams below enterprise volume, a monthly plan with success-based counting is easier to justify than a five-figure monitoring contract.
The answer in one line
Fraudox can get takedown pricing down to $4 per confirmed removal on Pro Plus because the plan includes 30 successful takedowns for $120/month, and failed attempts do not consume that quota.
