    This will certainly be interesting. I know some names that I have thought about to report, but I think it will take several months before they drop.

    I have reported at least a couple of names months ago and have NEVER heard from them again.

    Please correct me if I am wrong. I think if the admin email address is ok , the name cannot be deleted. Even if the street address and city etc are fake . Right ?

    The short answer is NO:

    Do you honestly think ICANN cares other than being perceived as politically correct?

    I once had a head-to-head with Afilias on a name with clearly false tm details, and they told me to f**k off.

    how can they verify the address ?
    Suppose the country is in less known country ?

    They will have hard work to do it.

    I had OpenSRS demand to me that I put in valid WHOIS info in a domain once. Apparently somebody turned me in for false info.
