To Whom It May Concern:

Attached please find a copy of the in rem Complaint, including Exhibit A, filed December 12, 2005, on behalf of Yahoo! in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The Complaint alleges, among other claims, violations of the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act of 1999, 15 U.S.C. &#167; 1125(d), arising from your registration of the domain names for which you are identified in Exhibit A as the registrant (the "Domain Names").

Notwithstanding the pending action, Yahoo! is willing to resolve the matter informally and release all claims against you arising from your prior use and registration of the Domain Names, including dismissing the pending law suit with prejudice, upon transfer of the Domain Names to Yahoo!. In order to do so, you must complete and sign the provided Agreement and Consent Judgment and return the originals of these two documents to us as soon as possible for filing as necessary with the Court.

As soon as practical, and following your request and our receipt of the original documents signed by you, we will provide you with a file-stamped copy of the Consent Judgment as approved by the Court and a copy of the fully executed Agreement. You may contact me with any questions.

We look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

Daniel Dougherty

There are also some files attached (PDF files like Agreement.pdf and 1 Excel list with yahoo typo domain names in it) ....

Also I would like to know if it is illegal to own a typosquatter domain like minicilp.com, starwasr.com, cartonchannel, filckr etc?
