[ga] Re: [ecdiscuss] .EU pre-registration scam


Philip and all,

  I hope so!  But there should be no surprise really in this sort of
occurrence.  The Registry is Afilias for .biz and the registrar is
Network Solutions.  The proper Technical contact is
bizregistration@netsol.com

  This looks allot like another of the Verisign/network solutions scams
that have been ongoing for awhile now...
