That’s a website called Scam.com and gives no specific info about legal action. I searched and found no record of any past, pending or current federal action taken against Ripoff Report or its owner. I found one example of a state lawsuit in which RR had to pony up a little over $14k in attorney fees to the plaintiff, in 2023.
I intended to post the following to myself, since looking into Seruga yielded more information.
There appear to be numerous complaints at Ripoff Report on this putz, describing how he and his associates scammed people out of hundreds of thousands of dollars in California over fifteen years ago. This link shows nine.

And for today’s dose of irony….
Earlier this year Seruga made claims via his X account about Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels. One America News - OAN - published it. They had to retract it because Cohen apparently sued OAN for defamation and won.
Article about OAN’s retraction:
FR post about Seruga’s original claim, and linking the original (false) OAN article:

Tony Seruga is a highly regarded X (Twitter) political pundit. Seruga, who has over 78,000 followers, also claims to be an “Intel Ops CIA/NSA Contractor and Whistleblower” in his profile.
Nope.
What’s really going on here is probably that they’re using this guy as an agent of chaos. Meaning he’s out there making outlandish and outright false claims, while sounding like he has insider knowledge. All pasted on top of his (apparent) dubious personal history.
There were two other FR posts using Seruga’s information as gospel - on November 16 and 17, 2023. One post starts out:
My partners and I have been lifetime data scientists. We own the digital ID of every mobile device/computer in the U.S. and have indexed and archived every IP address in the world. Our extensive experience in big and deep data, including geotracking and geolocation makes our dozens of data companies the top authority for providing data to corporations, law enforcement and U.S. government agencies like the CIA, NSA, DoD, DIA, NGA, NRO, FBI, as well as Interpol and foreign intelligence organizations.🤣
The guy’s a walking train wreck. On purpose.
