RE: [bc-gnso] Fake renewal notices

John,

This chart is just a recent snapshot.   My sense is that we now get fewer spams 
than others since we write cease and desist letters to each one.  Before we 
took this action, they would continue to spam various senior executives in the 
company on a continuing basis.

Sarah,

Any sense if the 25 a year you get is more, less or about the same as other 
similar-sized and positioned companies?

John, Zahid:

The attached chart may be helpful for you as you discuss the fake renewal 
issue.  This chart documents the many fake renewal/registration claims we have 
received inside Verizon.  Most come from companies located in China or Hong 
Kong.  We’ve sent a cease and desist letter to each, written to the Hong Kong 
Telecom Authority and the FTC, all to no avail.

John and Zahid,

I probably will not be at the Council tomorrow. Here is the  issue that steve 
mentioned.

I have website client who get fake renewal notices.  Or phone calls.

“We have a client who wants to register  name.cn<http://name.cn>   and as you 
have name.com<http://name.com>  and as we are a responsible registrar (actually 
not accredited) we wanted to check with you first before accepting our client’s 
order.   Do you want to register for 10 years of $$$  ?”

I advise my clients it is a scam, but just to be on the safe side they usually 
instructs me to make a defensive registration and I do so for one year with 
another registrar.

Best
