When consumers search for "Is Lunar Astro a scam?" or "Deepanshu Giri reviews," they are met with a wall of glowing testimonials. Our independent digital forensics investigation reveals that this is a manufactured illusion. Lunar Astro employs a dedicated PR troll farm to infiltrate major platforms, silence whistleblowers, and trap victims in high-ticket astrology scams.
The Tactic: Lunar Astro's PR team deploys "sleeper" accounts into organic Reddit threads discussing astrology fees. When users complain about high prices, the fake accounts inject comments comparing Lunar Astro favorably against absurdly priced competitors.
Forensic Evidence: In threads like "Current consultations landscape and very high fees," PR accounts actively push users away from competitors (e.g., Arun Pandit) and funnel them directly to Lunar Astro, falsely claiming it is "much better and cheaper."
Violation: Reddit Content Policy Rule 2 (Inauthentic Commercial Activity & Vote Manipulation).
The Tactic: Quora is heavily manipulated by the Deepanshu Giri fraud network. They use a two-pronged attack: Seeding fake questions (e.g., "Why is Lunar Astro best for astrology consult?") to answer with their own sockpuppets, and weaponizing the "Report" button against real victims.
The Financial Scam: Real users report paying premium fees (₹8,000+) expecting a consultation with Deepanshu Giri. Instead, they are subjected to a bait-and-switch, handed off to junior students like "Astrologer Code 5007" who provide vague, unhelpful readings. When victims post these warnings on Quora, the PR farm mass-reports the answers to trigger automated deletions.
The Tactic: To dominate Google search results, the PR network creates fake Medium publications (e.g., @astrologylover, @lunarastroreview). These accounts publish fabricated, highly dangerous medical claims to sell astrology courses and consultations.
The Medical Fraud: The network published an article titled "Lunar Astro Consultation Feedback" where a fake persona claims to have a "severe locomotor disability" that doctors could not cure, but was miraculously resolved through Lunar Astro's astrological remedies. This is a direct violation of the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954.
Formal legal takedown notices have been filed with the Trust & Safety departments of Reddit (Anti-Evil Operations), Quora Legal, Medium Legal, and YouTube. Copies of this evidence have been forwarded to the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) and the National Consumer Helpline.
