SMOKESCREEN WEBSITES

Smokescreen websites is what I call them. 

You know, the kind of websites that are created using AI (for example, ChatGPT) that you can throw together in almost no time and get published and up live in very short order. And you can make multiple versions. 

Here are a selection of Anthony “Nino” D’Anna’s examples:

Take D’Anna, for example. Google his name (Anthony D’Anna, Las Vegas) and see what comes up (see screenshot above). Just about the whole “top of the fold” results that you see as reflected in that image are, literally, fake. 

A whole background was concocted around D’Anna that has no basis in truth — or is deeply shaded truth. 

ANTHONY D’ANNA TRIES TO CLEAN UP HIS IMAGE

A number of new websites related to Anthony D’Anna have been created within the past few months (since November 2025). For example (https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com):

There are six blog posts on this site, all looking suspiciously like they were generated by AI: 

  1. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/turning-passion-into-profit-how-hobbies-drive-innovation-and-business-growth/
  2. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/entrepreneurial-grit-how-the-challenges-of-motorcycle-riding-build-leadership-skills/
  3. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/from-engine-to-enterprise-turning-automotive-hobbies-into-profitable-ventures/
  4. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/riding-to-success-how-motorcycle-skills-improve-entrepreneurial-decision-making/
  5. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/the-future-of-automotive-innovation-where-entrepreneurs-and-investors-should-be-looking-next-by-anthony-nino-danna-las-vegas-nv/
  6. https://www.anthonydannalasvegas.com/balancing-the-throttle-managing-risk-and-reward-in-business-investments-and-life-by-anthony-nino-danna-las-vegas-nv/

All are very likely AI-generated. 

For example, read about what ChatGPT says about the above content here: https://chatgpt.com/share/697aaf56-6a3c-8011-b997-70c962fc4514

Many of these posts are about autos and motorcycles, nothing about lessons learned through restaurant management or other corporate learnings. The last time D’Anna owned a motorcycle was 2003. 

Images you see on the website, including an image that purportedly shows Anthony D’Anna (his “About” page) are Royalty Free Adobe stock images, very likely pre-loaded within the Content Management System (CMS) already preloaded and which are likely already available to be used to publish the website.

Stock image used as a supposed image of Tony D’Anna. It is not. You can see that stock image here:

And this is the exact image on D’Anna’s website as it’s presented, supposedly as him:

D’Anna upposedly has been a longtime manager of a restaurant, Theresa’s Italian Deli, according to his various website write ups, which does not exist in the Las Vegas area. There is a Theresa’s Italian Deli that comes up in a web search, but it is in Erie, PA, a city where D’Anna has never lived according to extensive research. Tony has lived in the Las Vegas area since 2004 — perhaps even earlier, 2002 — from what I’ve been able to find through researching the web.

  • D’Anna has NO professional licenses.
  • D’Anna has NO professional affiliations.
  • D’Anna has NO food service management background.
  • D’Anna DOES have an extensive criminal history background, is a convicted felon, and once was labeled as a “known and documented organized crime figure.”

MUCH OF THIS ONLINE CONTENT HAS BEEN CREATED AND PUBLISHED LAST MONTH — JANUARY 2026

Same six blog posts. Same content, different royalty free generic photo of a guy who is not Anthony D’Anna. In my opinion, completely concocted through AI generation.

WhoIs registration is identical to the above-referenced website: WhoIs AnthonyD’AnnaEntrepreneur.com

Industry Elites:

Repeated slightly tweaked AI-generated content: 

https://www.industry-elites.com/what-does-success-look-like-to-you-anthony-nino-danna/

According to this website: “Anthony Nino D’Anna is a Las Vegas born entrepreneur with a career shaped by hard work, steady focus, and real experience. He grew up in Las Vegas and learned early that success comes from showing up, paying attention, and doing the small things well.

Anthony started his career by running his own Italian deli, Theresa’s. Managing the deli gave him a strong base in leadership, operations, and customer service. He handled inventory, trained staff, solved daily problems, and kept the business moving even on difficult days.”

There is record of a Teresa’s Italian Deli — however, I could not find it on the Nevada Secretary of State site. I did, however find this listing through another source noting that it was filed 47 years ago, in 1979, the year that Anthony “Nino” D’Anna was born:

You get the idea … AI-generated content based on made-up background info spread by algorithms across multiple platforms. 

And finally … 

Is Anthony Francis Danna of Las Vegas even still alive?

Sorry, I couldn’t help it. My own twisted attempt at a little black humor.


Anthony D’Anna and his attempt to clean up his image, Part II

This actually has become comical. 

Anthony D’Anna must be working with an AI interface that is based overseas somewhere — India or the Philippines maybe — at least in my opinion. 

There’s no other way to explain what we’re finding: 

https://www.openpr.com/news/4423045/anthony-d-anna-advocates-a-personal-standard-of-focus-review

Let’s focus our attention on the above press release. Notice anything? The first thing that grabbed my attention was the text at the bottom of the graphic: IMMAGE NOT AVAIIILABLE (note the weird “M” and the triple-“I” misspelling of “AVAIIILABLE.” Just a joke.

Maybe someone’s brain cells are not available. 

How do you even let an image like that get through? Obvious AI automation without anyone reviewing the AI-generated content. 

Really bad. 

And what, exactly, is “Open PR”? It’s an AI-generated platform to suck in automated content and display it as if it’s actually a legitimate platform, like PR News Wire, for example. Check out their AI-built main page here: https://www.openpr.com/

And who or what is “Erase Technology LLC”? As you can see from the link, it’s a reputation management company. Let me ask you, why is D’Anna in need of using a reputation management company? Because he needs it. Because, in my opinion, things that he has done up to this date in his life are so egregious that they need covering up, or scrubbing. Hence the blizzard of fictional PR releases online to cover up his legal, ethical and moral issues. To try to overcome the truthful details I’m laying out for all to see on this website, for example. 

Just more embarrassment, in my opinion, by a desperate D’Anna.
