[ga] US State Sues Web/SEO Firm For Deceiving Mom-and-Pops

["Jeffrey A. Williams" <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  Yet again, shouldn't ICANN have cought this long ago,
and shut this domain name down and preferred prosecution
to the DOJ?  Or was there some unknown reason they were
allowed to continue to scam people?

See:
 http://www.networkworld.com/community/buzzblog "The state of
Washington is  http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/35218
suing a search engine optimization and Web services outfit, based in
Redmond, that has done business under the names Visible.net,
Captures.com, and WebMarketingSource.com. In essence, the state
says these entities have deceived mostly mom-and-pop sites through
unfulfilled performance promises and financial shenanigans after
charging up to $10,000 in up-front charges and more in monthly fees. 
About 90 complaints have been lodged over four years, the state 
says."
