Ok, I hate that this keeps happening but apparently NSI won't be held accountable for it. I had something around 10 back-orders with SnapNames on old expired names and they've "suddenly" been renewed? WTF?! Grrrr.
About the Stolen Domains.. NSI is really having a problem with this. They have almost no control and have even returned some names mistakenly to the wrong people. A recent call with them even showed one name being renewed for an extra year but no invoice existed, and there was no charge on the renewal. It's possible even that someone's renewing the names that isn't the owner, with the intent of stealing the names. It even appears that there are no consequences for the thief, for NSI, or anyone else involved. As widespread and as valuable as these names are, I'm surprised the media hasn't reported on it and it's been kept so low-profile.
It's possible some of you have even purchased stolen names, like GregR may have done with 83.com ? ( based on the eBay scam revealed earlier ).
I wonder if NSI even knows whats going on. I've heard the inside-job theory. They must not have much of an audit trail about who accesses domain records if this turns out to be the case.
Snapnames might want to lower its price because its record isn't anywhere near as good as it once was, and NSI is letting a thief take the better names.
WLS.. heh.
