[ga] Still more fraud being reported...


From the registrars list:

Afilias released 17022 names in the .INFO Landrush 2, however the same
People who registered these 17022 FRAUDULENT SUNRISE Names, continue to own
another 14000+ names which have NOT been challenged by Afilias (The numbers
may not be exact - check inaccuracies section on online report)

For instance lets take the LARGEST Fraudulent Domain Registrant -
Plankenstein, who had fraudulently registered 4938 .INFO Domains in the
Sunrise period. Plankenstein still continues to own approximately 140
Sunrise domains after the Afilias Landrush is over. Check the whois on
alava.info, aragon.info, avila.info etc.

Visit http://dotinfo.directi.com for the complete research (an interesting
study born out of one night of insomnia and boredom)

A far more smarter FRAUD which has gone undetected is that of
domain@se.euro909.com. In the .INFO Sunrise this email address had
registered 663 .INFO NAMES. After the Afilias Challenge the same email
address continues to hold 646 UNCHALLENGED names. Check the whois on
accelerator.info, airwear.info, findus.info. Notice that very smartly this
person has put in DIFFERENT Registrants for each domain name, however the
FUNNY part is that EVERY DOMAIN NAME has a trademark date of 2000-10-01 and
all the Registrants share the same email address (oh yea and all of them
have a funny phone number too).
