Re: [registrars] Registrar Constituency Agenda -- LA Meeting

["DotAlliance" <helen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hopefully I am listed without issue this time on the RCA?

I recently received a very helpful call from Patrick Klass who works in cooperation with 
phishtank.coma
Phistank.com is a free volunteer organisation and their efforts are to be applauded

He identified two phishing sites using our registrar and with that criteria I was able to identify and delete some 25 such domains within the 5 day delete period!
However, his problem is that he cannot contact most registrars and or ISPs to warn them.
Emails and phone calls are often a waste of time as the right person is not contacted.
Specifically he mentioned problems in contacting Google and register.com.
I am certain that all of us are most pleased to receive such information as we all hate phishers and the transaction is almost certainly fraudulent.

To this end I would like to submit a request to other registrars asking for contact information (phone and/or email) which would lead to timely response and closure of phishing site.
I would like to pass around a contact sheet in LA however please feel free to email me!
I will then pass this information only to responsible people and organisations working to remove phishing.
Hopefully this is satisfactory to everyone or if someone has a better idea?

Best,
Helen

  Registrars:

   

  The following (and attached) is the tentative agenda for the upcoming Registrar Constituency meeting in Los Angeles.  The format is a bit different for this meeting with regard to Board interaction.  We will have two or three Board members with us for the first half of the meeting followed by a visit from Vint and Paul for a wrap-up session.  Also, this year we have moved the meeting with the Registry Constituency to the following day.  Call-in numbers will be sent to the Voting List next week.  Hope to see you in LA.

   

  Thanks.  

   

  Jon
