    groupsex.com stolen

    Someone has fraudulently gained access to my NetSol account and changed the contact e-mail address to himself. He then initiated a transfer with Dotster for the domain groupsex.com. I found out on the same day, and contacted NSI asking them how they allowed this to happen. I was told to contact their legal department to have the domain locked, and was assured that they would not let the domain transfer. I did just that, changed the contact info back to myself, and changed all the passwords.

    Well, guess what, two days lated, Dotster had the domain with (surprise, surprise) the thief's contact details:

    Registrant:
    jstn ltd.
    125 Kendall Street
    Walpole, Ma 02081
    US

    Registrar: DOTSTER
    Domain Name: GROUPSEX.COM
    Created on: 29-MAY-96
    Expires on: 28-MAY-06
    Last Updated on: 16-MAY-03

    Administrative, Technical Contact:
    Pessa, Justin just1n@anonymous.to
    jstn ltd.
    125 Kendall Street
    Walpole, Ma 02081
    US
    774-306-1093


    Domain servers in listed order:
    NS15.WEBMASTERS.COM
    NS14.WEBMASTERS.COM

    Has anyone ever seen this contact name before? I tried to contact Dotster, but it has been useless. They have virtually no support (phone or e-mail). Isn't there a member on this board who works for Dotster? Does anyone know who he is or know how to get through to Dotster? Has this ever happened with anyone else? Would any of the attorney members here want to take this case if I have problems getting the name back fast (I will be reporting this to my contact at the FBI in any event)? Thanks.

    Good you spotted this quick. The fact that the thief uses a free anonymous email doesn't bode well for him/her. Maybe you could check with the free email company to get an IP trace.

    Just checked google with "justin pessa" and "just1n@anonymous.to"

    Seems your guy likes Linux and Cryptology a lot...maybe you can have some information from the sites he visited...

    Since you have contacted the FBI I hope you answered 'yes' to their question if you suffered a financial loss of more than $5,000 - or else they won't ever call you back.

    The funny thing is that the DNS is still that of NetTuner's (Webmasters.com)

    That's more proof that the name belonged to you. I would capture a WHOIS with a unix timestamp, if I were you.

    Timecharge,

    I know about the FBI's limit. I paid $50,000 for the domain, and have all receipts to show for it. Thanks for the input.

    Sex and Network Solutions / Verisign

    I cannot but think here of the fradulent transfer of sex.com and the response of Network Solutions.

    An excellent resource on the ongoing multimillion dollar litigation is press.sex.com

    Cool Welcome to the club

    Sorry to hear about the scum-bag thief. Same thing happened to me with WeInsureU.com - Stolen, but not the loss you have experienced... I have to file a dispute with the losing registrar, which is Dotster.com vs. MelboureIT, who now has the domain name.

    I'll get 'em - Just biding ( not bidding ) my time.

    Because of this forum and timechange.com, the domains were returned to me by someone who has bought them from the thief (hung.com was taken as well). I would like to thank everyone who posted their support. I feel privileged to be a member of this forum, it is invaluable!!!

    Cripes, tuner. You paid $50k for the name and you didn't lock it?

    It was a crafty job; it's been mentioned before that there are insiders at NetSol that assist such transfers. Anyway, more in private as this forum is wide open to the public. I suggest we move this to the members only forum.
