For Sale Stolen domains update

All,

Good news, a couple stolen domains have been returned to proper owners!

Spoke with some domain expert. Apparently this thief has been at it a while. This "source" insists the guy lives in California, not Asia. Evidence is pretty compelling. This guy knows his name too and will rat him out with some more pressure I think--I am trying.

Anyone see the china.net Who Is now?? It has changed. Apparently, the lights were turned on for this cockroach (thief) and he is fleeing the light of truth and trying to seek cover and legitmacy. Won't work dude! Someone knows who you are by name! A congressman may know him soon!

Stay tuned.

Did they really get it back ? Or maybe the Whois info is being changed to get you off the trail.

The name was with NetSol before. Dotregister said Netsol had to get it resolved and they would return the name. The name is still with Dotregister though ?

Meanwhile, who benefits from all that type-in traffic ? Dotregister does. They have a client they KNOW is taking domain names that doesn't belong to him. Many names still in his inventory, while they know what has taken place.

Just curious Brujah, how does DotReg know? (haven't been keeping track of this too much...)

 

[Brujah]

Omni, if you return a stolen name to its rightful owner.. you can pretty much be sure many of the other names your client has been accumulating are likely to be stolen also.

They've also already indicated the client has given them false information in the whois records and provided them with false information for their own account records.

If you were the registrar, and this client was yours. What would you do ?

 

[MarkyMark]

OMNI, because someone recently transferred many high (super high) profile domains to them. Don't tell me you dont think they would notice that?... So besides theivery what could it be?

1. He just spent a lot of money buying domains and is transferring them to DR? Unlikely...

2. He owned them before?... nope DR would see that the whois changes for them when he orders the transfer.

3. He managed to take control of obsolete email addresses and "steal" domains? Bingo!

Oooh are you threatening me ? LOL

I was talking about the guy who would take such a high profile name as china.net being retarded.

Why are you so touchy ?

How about we forget the mis-understanding and all stay friends.

The thief did not take 'old email addresses' to do this. He fraudulently changed the admin email at Netsol first. Big difference.

 

[MarkyMark]

you may be right, but thats not the explanation that was posted here earlier and subsequently removed by moderators...

 

MarkyMark,

There were two methods discussed here. The thief chose the first (most aggregious method) one that was discussed, changing the Admin email contact at NetSol then moving it to another registrar and using false contact names and addresses.
