Dear Registrars: Have you heard about this abuse? Regards, BobC


jberryhill writes "Many will recall the infamous "Domain
Registry of America" whose "business" consisted of sending
phony renewal notices and slamming domain names from one registrar to another.
Although they have been shut down by legal action in Canada and in Europe, and
by an injunction obtained by Register.com in federal court in New York... they're
baaaack.




As documented at www.domainjacking.com, they have set up shop as a registration
service reseller for Enom. Enom's response? Despite all of the web pages at Enom's
website in which they refer to their resellers as "partners", Enom's position is that they
are not responsible for the behavior of their resellers. Conveniently, Enom profits from
the known fraudulent activities of their own resellers behind a fig leaf of a disclaimer in
their reseller contract.


Obviously, a silver bullet or wooden stake is going to be required in order to finally put
this creepshow, and those that support them, down."
