The alleged band Inkakai formed by Jani-Petteri Oinas AKA Caleb Daniel Lit managed to take down the #villevalo VV Loveletting video on YouTube, stating that the song and logo is very similar to theirs. Which is not true.
Warner Music Finland I hope us fans we can have an official statement about this matter as soon as possible, since this alleged band is signed to your label and Ville was too with HIM, for 6 years. Hope also that offenders will be punished for their actions.
FYI the real name of Caleb "Fireal" Daniel Lit, the little HIM fanboy who took down the VV's "Loveletting" Video on YouTube is: Jani-Petteri Oinas.
TLDR;
Context: the Loveletting video has been temporarily disabled due to a copyright claim by Caleb Daniel Lit from the band Fireal/Inkakai (Warner Music Finland) regarding their song "Ariel", which has a brief piano snippet of a few seconds similar to Loveletting. If you can't see their social media is because they blocked you (they blocked many people in the last 2 days), and they disabled the comments to avoid people leaving messages. He did the same with another band called Blind Channel years ago, claiming the words "dark side" and "join the dark side" of a song from them. His next target will probably be Disney and Star Wars.

EDIT 1:
Thanks to u/LadyStardust_666 for pointing this out.
Yesterday, 27 April 2022 at 10:20, this band Fireal/Inkakai uploaded a new post in Facebook mentioning the song and a line from the lyrics: "Is this what you wanted. Can you see me now": (screenshot / link), so it's the final confirmation that, indeed, this happened because of this "Ariel" song. Also, they locked their Twitter account (screenshot / link).
No more information available yet, we don't know if this has been intentional or because of the YouTube algorithm, but according to Wikipedia this band Fireal were the opening act of HIM at Helldone Festival 2009, so they knew each other.
EDIT 2:
Thanks to u/Reasonable_Ocelot77 and u/BleedGreenMSU for the update.
They deleted their Facebook account (screenshot), and they blocked Reasonable_Ocelot77 on Instagram. They have the comment section closed in "firealofficial", and limited in "inkakai" (having to follow them there to write).

EDIT 3:
According to another person from Instagram (link) the claim could have been done due the fact that Inkakai's logo or symbol was similar to VV's (screenshot).
EDIT 4:
This band Inkakai published today 29 April 2022 at 2:00 am an Instagram stories saying: "It's all about one part of the music, not about the symbol. Ours is a triangle, not V." (source / screenshot). So we confirm it was due similarity in the music, indeed.
EDIT 5:
They started to block the people subscribing to their two Instagram accounts, showing this once you are blocked: https://i.imgur.com/5dsWzkO.png, but if you enter unlogged or in a new tab in the browser, the accounts still there.
EDIT 6:
This was the flagged audio part apparently: https://vocaroo.com/1eO2LNZEXxXi
The lyrics they posted on Facebook ("Is this what you wanted. Can you see me now") were the reference part of the leitmotiv in the song that has been claimed.
EDIT 7:
People has been leaving messages in Warner's social media and Warner has been "liking" some of them, so they know the problem.
Inkakai/Fireal published 2 new posts with this message:
Update: Things will continue in private now. As a show of good faith, the video will be online soon.
'Ariel' (2011) including piano following the vocal melody "Is this what you wanted?"
It's all about one part of the music. Not about the symbol. Ours is a triangle.

Thanks to fragile_souls_for_ville and itsalltears_616 for the last update.
A new message published: https://i.imgur.com/2Ajm7qR.jpg
Thank you for the friendly approach. Please spread the word and inform the Heartagram communities that we will now try to resolve this privately. As a show of good faith, we have temporarily retracted the copyright claim. This means the "Love Letting" video will be back online soon. We understand Ville's fans react with passion in all things regarding him. But we can't accept any kind of bullying or harassment. We ask you to spread the word to other Ville fans not to attack any on our pages again. This would only complicate things further and make the negotiations more difficult. We hope for a peaceful resolution for everyone involded. Have a nice weekend. Inkakai.
And not only this, Fireal/Inkakai also claimed the words "dark side" and "join the dark side" from a song of the band Blind Channel time ago, saying that the fans of this band started cyberbullying them after this (NO SHIT SHERLOCK, you try to fuck others and then you cry when people get angry at you?). Post from 2021: https://imgur.com/a/qbpdTt0
So basically they've been playing the game of "claim and fuck" anything that had anything even remotely related to their songs from other people since long ago to take advantage of, and this Caleb Daniel Lit has the balls to say "As show of good faith we have temporarily retracted the copyright claim" and "People is harassing us", when it's totally fake in the case of HIM's fans, no one harassed them, people just left messages asking what happened and they started blocking everyone everywhere.
What good faith you fucking imbecile? You've been trying to fuck other bands since years ago with your behaviour of claiming their songs and now you play the victim when people get angry? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
