DTopp
DTopp Marketing Reviews
DTopp Marketing LLC is an online reputation management company that scams innocent clients like me. I have been scammed out of 4500 USD. I trusted them time and again and they cheated me every time. They provide 90 days of money back guarantee period if the reviews or links have not been deleted or suppressed respectively. This is where I got trapped and trusted them and paid via the wire transfer which cannot be reversed.
I waited for the 90 days’ period and nothing was done. One link did get successfully suppressed because of the client’s popularity in the industry. Because of the positive press from other medias the link got supressed. DTopp got the credit of suppression which wasn’t the case at all. However, I had no issue as even the client paid to me. I have had couple of other order with them and they were never successfully suppressed by the time period they mentioned.
I asked them for the refund. They advised me to fill the form. I did the same and they said that the refund will be done within 15 days of form filling. This is pure scam. They never take payment via credit card since we can easily charge back the same if the description of the services does not meet the criteria.
David Topping is a convicted criminal. His company visualizes the fake reviews. They hire fake reviews from the website like fiverr and freelancer. I pleaded them many times for the refund. They told me that they are sending me the check which was never received on the address I provided them.
You can check out the other reviews placed by the people like me https://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/dtopp/wilmington-north-carolina-28401/dtopp-david-toppingdavid-toppdtoppdavid-a-topping-ad-said-fake-reviews-removal-suppr-1449756 I also request you to check Dtopp’s yelp & bbb complaints. I am not sure but Dtopp’s yelp page has been deindexed or removed. I will email yelp that someone in their staff is a scammer and they deindex pages for money.
On yelp, there are many people who have reported that Dtopp aka David Topping scammed them out. No one would file for the lawsuit because it costs way more than what they paid to David. They are leveraging on this and scamming everyone out. I am going to spread this report to couple of other platforms to make sure no one get scammed by Dtopp Marketing LLC. I am looking for the refund of my 4500 USD at the address provided. They will know me as soon as they will read my email. If you have been scammed by David Topping or Dillon Aldrich, please comment or place your review here so that we can contact each other and file the lawsuit.
Admin Note: DTopp Marketing LLC tried to remove their reviews from Google by submitting it to the outdated caches removal. We doubt they are hiring hacker and using illegal means to get this page deleted. We have experienced DDOS attack.
"Yes, DTopp LLC is the scam"
I have also hired them for the yelp review deletion and used their express removal services which costed me 400 USD. After 90 days of period I asked them for the refund and all of my refund request has been denied.
I am willing to join with you to file the lawsuit, please let me know how do I can contact you to burst this scammer.
Dtopp is a scam
They took my money for the review removal service and then stopped emailing or corresponding. They never deleted anything and took my money. I have a lawyer to go after them – just need a few more people to make this a class action – message me if you were scammed.
They scammed me 2300.
I was scammed.

Dtopp is a scam: Yes it is.
They never refunded my money. They are the scammer. I have reported them to the authority and I am sure David will be behind the bar again.
The copes asked me to submit the proof of payment which I did via the pay check.
I have had hand overed all the details and will put some updates here.
Internet Fraud by scam artists and liars
I too have spent several months attempting to get multiple refunds back from DTOPP and they have lied to me every step of the way. They will not refund your money under any circumstance and I am currently filing a lawsuit against them. Do NOT use DTOPP!
"no refund"
I’m a business owner and paid DTopp to remove some Yelp reviews. It’s been 4 months and they didn’t do anything. I requested a refund a month ago and haven’t received a refund check yet…
Scammed for $150.00
DTOPP is a blatant scam. There is absolutely no reason to believe otherwise. I was scammed. They collect your money by check as they are claiming their credit card service provider dropped them. Which is a lie to get you to pay by check. David Topping has gone down for fraud again. I’m just perplexed as to why he wants to make a living off of scamming people?? The lengths he goes to to scam folks is confusing.
Either way 90 days came – no suppression and no refund from DTOPP. Scam, Scam, and Scam.
"Dtopp is a complete Scam"
I hired Dtopp to suppress 4 links. I paid them $2850. They did not suppress the links at all. They have not given me my refund. They ignore all attempts to contact them.
Do not give them any money or Dtopp will steal it.
"Dtopp Scam"
If Dtopp scammed you file a complaint here:
https://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
Also file with the state Attorney general so we can stop this serial fraudster and try and get our money back.
"Dtopp Scam"
Scammed by Dtopp, several thousand, no responses to emails, online tickets, calls, voicemails for over 1 month. Filed with NC State Police and ICCC, prior fraud charges should have some interest in moving forward with criminal charges against the owner. I’ve contacted James in this thread to see on criminal and civil actions we may group together and pursue.
"SUPER SCAM!"
We gave Dtopp over $2500 to remove reviews off Amazon but we waited 4 months and nothing happened. Not one review was removed and now they won’t give us our money back. Biggest scam ever! Don’t trust them no matter what they tell you.
"DTopp Scammed Me Also"
I hired this company over 6 months ago to suppress a news article. After the 90 days past, I was never able to get a hold of anyone to process a refund. They dropped off the face of the Earth.
I would love to be part of the lawsuit.
"scam, phony, liars,"
they did nothing and refused to return my money even though they promise a money back guarantee. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
"Great experience everytime"
I have used dtopp on many different occasions without issues.. guess this site is only for complaining?? makes me happy to see they only have a few complaints b/c they have always delivered for me.
CAN’T BE TRUSTED
David is slick and can’t be trusted. He will scam you!
"DTopp also took my money and disappeared"
If you’ve been scammed by DTopp, please contact the NC Attorney General’s Office.

https://www.ncdoj.gov/Consumer/2-2-12-File-a-Complaint.aspx
David likes to claim that we are all “haters” and “liars” but if enough of us complain with proof he is a fraud, he’ll hopefully end up getting arrested again.

All links suppressed
Hired DTopp for $13,491 worth of suppression’s. They gave me an extended guarantee of 120 days. 94 days later they had all the links suppressed as promised. No complaints here.
"Exceptional!"
DTopp has earned my trust
"DTOPP is a SCAM, FRAUD ALERT"
PLEASE do not do business with DTOPP. They are the worst group of people I have ever felt with. The whole business is a fraud. Please call me if you want more information. 970-310-4073
"Got it deleted"
Hired them 2 months ago to delete reviews. Delivered as promised. Thank you
"DTopp SCAM ALERT"
Yes, it’s a scam. The owner David Topping is a convicted felon. He and his little crew of misfits got my money. You will have to pre-pay. They do nothing. Want their “guaranteed ” refund. Good luck sucker.
"24 of 27 reviews deleted"
I have used DTopp for a bit over a year for my Amazon pages. I added up what I hired them for verses what they deleted…. 24 to 27…. they have had 24 of the 27 reviews deleted. IDK why people on here claim they are a scam because the founder is a felon…. it says it everywhere like on his Twitter and on their website! It’s not a secret.
I have no complaints about DTopp and will continue to use them as I have for over a year.
"Don't believe them."
DTopp Marketing LLC is an online reputation management company that scams innocent individuals. I was scammed out of 150 USD.
They provide 90 days of money back guarantee period if the reviews or links have not been deleted or suppressed respectively. They only accept checks which I should have been smarter and not paid.
I waited more than the 90 days’ period and nothing was done. I filed for a refund but was never contacted.
Below is an email from another dissatisfied person,
You can check out the other reviews placed by the people like me https://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/dtopp/wilmington-north-carolina-28401/dtopp-david-toppingdavid-toppdtoppdavid-a-topping-ad-said-fake-reviews-removal-suppr-1449756
"Bogus"
Hired them to remove a review and they did not. The refund policy has not been followed. They took our money and hid. Our experience shows that this is scam.
"They ripped me off also"
I want to go after these people and get my money back. They owe me $570.00. I would love to join your class action suit. My email is: [email protected]
ABSOLUTE RIP OFF
DO NOT USE THIS GUY. This is not an actual company, but a convicted felon who will rip you off. We hired him to remove two fake reviews and paid additional $ to get it remove within 30 days. Not only did he not do the work, but also never responded to our several emails. Him not taking credit card payment, but only electronic checks should have raised a red flag. Obviously very naive on our part, but hoping our experience will help others! Stay away!!!!
No problems
We use DTopp for all of our client’s reputation management projects. Our first order was 2 yrs ago and we have placed at least 20 different orders to date.
5 days
Our firm hired DTopp 5 days ago to delete multiple fake reviews. They have already deleted all of them. We fully support DTopp.
TOTAL SCAM
I got scammed for 150. I’m almost certain he doesn’t even try to do what he’s being paid to do. Filled out his “refund” form after 90 days with no response. They don’t answer the phone or return calls. It’s not just Topping. There is a guy named Dillon who does sales and another guy named Miguel or some Hispanic name are are also in on the scam. Just was guilty as Topping. All three need to go to jail.
Yippie!!!
Super excited when I found DTopp. Even more excited now that they had my false arrest suppressed from google. It no longer haunts me. Yippie!!!!
Scammer Alert
I have paid $560 to have 4 fake reviews deleted. It has been 90 days and still nothing and no one to get a hold of. Just finding out this kid is a scammer. I googled his arrest record in NC and he is still in probation. Report this punk so he doesn’t scam any more hard working business owners. His full names are David Alan Topping, born in 02/21/1995, he is a convicted felon who apparently hasn’t learned his lesson. Do him a favor and send him back to prison for violating his probation. He was convicted in 10/04/2017 and has a 60 month probation term. His probation officer is in District 5 unit K. You can look him up on North Carolina Department of Public Safety Offender Public Information and report him.
I don’t want to waste more money by suing this punk, but we can still get justice.
Here is the link for his record:

Don't trust them
The company only takes checks. That should have been the first clue as theres no recourse to take action. I’ve emailed and completed the paperwork to receive a refund. Crickets
BUYER BE WHERE.
Lawsuit
I am the owner of an electrical contracting business with experience in bringing fraudulent companies like this to justice. We had the owners of a like-company sent to prison for 4-6 years with restitution due when they are released. We have contact information for the proper authorities, so if everyone can contact me with the amount of money they are owed, the dates monies were paid, and any documentation you have we can get this investigation started. You can send the information to my email address [email protected]
No probs
Everything went smoothly. Highly recommend DTopp.
Never got rid of review never paid me back
They claim to get rid of bad reviews for a price and then do not deliver and do not refund money as promised.
Thank you thank you!!
Our firm is very grateful for DTopp and their ability to get our clients mugshots suppressed and sometimes even deleted. Thank you!!!
90% succession rate
Not sure about the fuss but my agency has used DTOPP since 2017 and hasn’t had any issues. No, they were not successful for every single order but I would say they were successful with 9 out of every 10. We are very happy with their services and still use them.
Money back guarantee is bullshit!
I’ve been trying for a few months to get a hold of a live person in order to get a refund and nada. It’s like they disappeared and won’t answer the phone or emails.
I guess once a con artist, always a con artist.

Dtopp
I dealt with Dillon Aldrich as well. He was emailing and calling me four or five times a week. I committed and paid nearly $1,000 for the surpression of one link. He mentioned the 90 day guarantee. It’s been 90 days and there’s been no suppression. He will not return the numerous emails I’ve sent him or voice mails I’ve left.
I’m willing to join the law suit as well.
Scam
Dtopp took over $500 from me and never provided the services they promiseed.
They also never returned my payment .
I would like to be a part of a lawsuit .
People like this should be not able to scam other hard working people
80% successful
DTopp got hired by me to remove 5 reviews. They remove 4 of them. Got refund but really want the last one remove. Will update review to 5 star if last review deleted. Thx
Complete scam
This is a complete scam. Their 90 days guarantee doesn’t work and they stop answering emails completely after 60 days.
Young Kids Idolizing Wolf of Wallstreet
David Topping is a young millennial trying to pay his rent through a simple hustle. Naming a company DTopp after yourself does seem quite egotistical, but after viewing his picture on Linkedin it all made sense. Frail little man looking to make his daddy proud by any means necessary. I’d like to set up a kickstarter campaign in his name to get him a few months of his rent paid off, and maybe a sweet card that says “Atta boy kid, ya did it!”
Only lost a couple thousand dollars. Willing to grab my pitch fork and join this angry mob, but whats the point.
Yours truly,
Fatherly Figure Looking To Make a Difference
"Run don't walk from this company"
I hired them to remove a bad review and they never did anything and never respond to my requests for a status. Total scam.
Total Scam Artist -
While I didn’t deal with David Topping at DTopp, he scammed me out of $2000-$3000 for a website he never built. First of all, David introduced himself as Marshal Law when we met to discuss the website. Martial Law is his partner or husband which I didn’t discover until doing my own research into the situation as things went south, no delivery of what we agreed upon and further, and excuses stacked up. He has a history of developing and shuttering businesses due to scams. He does not accept credit cards which is a huge red flag. Transfers and ACH transactions can’t be reversed or challenged. Credit cards can. He knows exactly what he is doing. I think it’s time we all band together and get the Attorney General and the IRS involved. I guarantee if we inventoried our payments (which we have proof of) made to David and took our case to the IRS, this would be game over.
David Topping is a conman, scammer
David Topping is a conman, scammer will take your money and do nothing, they never answer their phone, will not honor the guarantee. He is a convicted of security’s fraud and doesn’t know how to do honest work.
Criminals. Scammers. Stay Away.
Hired them to remove a review. I pre-paid. Once they had my money, they deleted my order. I called to get a status. They don’t answer the phone or respond to my emails. They are under investigation by the local police. Later found out David Topping (DTopp) is a convicted felon.
Paid my $150 Invoice and no action
Paid my $150 and now no one will respond. But they keep sending invoices for additional fees.
