Thief Strikes again!

Our domain thief just stole two.com and moved it to Go Daddy. Go Daddy hides the WHo Is from most viewing sites so this thief is trying to stay hidden. (He first started using Go Daddy more than a year ago to harbor his stolen names.)

More than a year ago he stole olympian.com and has now sold it to someone and made a lot of money!

NSI and DotRegistrar are moving to freeze his other domains. But this thief also uses OpenSRS, ENOM, DomainBank, and Go Daddy.

This guy will be revealed soon along with all his stolen names......Watch out your name will be in lights soon!

How is it you think this is stolen?

Yes, the record looks innocent enough....

But, this is one name I tried to buy two weeks ago. Kinda like DN forum member Brujah's experience with another domain name. I emailed the owner and the Admin email Contact bounced back. Then I called the phone number which was to Alcatel in Canada. They said they were not interested in selling the name. It was an NSI name last week. Now it is Go Daddy. It was impossible to transfer it legitimately with within one week when the Admin contact email address was invalid. I bet Alcatel does not even know it was stolen yet.

Further the new "owner" has restaurants.com, comb.com, and occupation.com ALL registered with Dot Registrar who holds many of the stolen names I identified before. Got to wonder if these were stolen too. Further, NSI is now quoted in writing to a company I know that they are "investigating many domains fraudulently transfered to Dot Registrar". That is yes, a DIRECT quote. NSI has confirmed suspicions in writing......

Alcatel has another very high profile name I bet gets stolen soon too.....

I kept on receiving these emails:
I never requested for the transfers.
-------------------------------
A request has been submitted to transfer the following domains:
{mydomainname.com}

Since [myemailaddress] was registered as the Administrative Contact
for the
domain(s), we are asking for your approval to transfer the domain.

You will need this Authorization Key :
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

If you wish to verify and approve the transfer(s), visit the following
link:

https://secure.onlineaccess.net/trans.php?email=XXXXXXXXXX&key=XX&FID=&IYD=X&secID=

Cut-and-paste the Authorization Key into the field on the transfer
verification page to begin the verification process.

I think Network Solutions contact this guy offer him $125K per year salary pluss stop options and hire them to revise their NSI registry or creat a new system instead of RRP. Just be honest, a guy who knows every method to grab domains. If he was got caught I would exactly do what I said if I were the CEO of Network Solutions.

Kind of tiring to even bother with it anymore. Not enough previous owners seem to care. Registrars don't seem to care. Maybe everyone should steal domains before all the good ones are stolen.

 

[Who-Wiz]

This "hole" in the registry/transfer system seems much like the "whole" in the Internet allowing anonymous mailers to start going hog-wild in recent months. NSI's registry system doesn't help, but they ARE finally scrambling to move users to the new reg system. --Seems not fast enough.

Hey, y'know... I don't see any nameservers listed there... what might that mean...?

Ah Brujah, do not give up yet. Some progess is being made. Yes, it can be discouraging, but this thief's names will be stripped--I am confident.

Someone steals a domain from a legitimate owner, using fraud and deception. And this is not theft? How do you figure that? How does your need to talk to low level techs make it any less of a theft?

are so out in left field and lost on this subject. This has NOTHING to do with 'buying names' etc. There is a known thief out there, and several members know exactly what is going down. Stay tuned. The wheels of justice turn slowly, but with a lot of torque.

You think so? I've seen many cases of stolen names, where no registrar has an incentive to strip the name. The new registrars claim that its not "their" problem, and that the aggrieved party should seek redress from their old registrar.

Good luck then ...
