And yet people are still blind...

It goes on to say: "An unidentified person has also registered www.rachelentwistle.net through Directnic.com, a New Orleans-based domain seller."

Of course, a quick check reveals that the hijacking arm of directnic.com / intercosmos media - whatever, KENYATECH has registered this name. And yet this statement appears toward the end:

"Directnic spokesman Sigmund Solares said it’s common for cyber squatters and other Internet entrepreneurs to snatch up Web names tied to crime cases that make national headlines."

Guess he would know a snake when he saw one.....

“Anytime someone is in the news, someone from anywhere is going to register a bunch of names and variations of them. It happens every day,” Solares said. “What’s the motivation behind buying the Web site, I can only speculate.”

Especially if its in the mirror.

What information do you have?

I dont know, maybe I am dense or something... I see a lot of links way down below and they go all over the Internet with tons of people discussing the same stuff about the same people - but, again, maybe I am just seeing things.

May I ask what has made you become so "anti-directnic"? Did you lose a name to them or something?

Just asking

 

[marisolblue]

I am sure he has his reasons

Just asking

Too many people from far corners of the globe all talking about the same exact experience with the same exact people cant be just a coincidence.

It doesnt really matter if it happened to me or not. Its not only about me, its about a group of scammers that front themselves as a "legit" operation.

 

[marisolblue]

Did you complain to Icann?

They Are OK

They are fair enough.

DirectNic = Real people, great service

I used directnic for many years, they are great in every category. They went through the ordeal of Katrina without a hiccup (they are in New Orleans, US) and kept the good service while Katrina was hitting them. Some years ago they used to be among the cheapest, but today, the only drawback is their price; as you start buying more domain names you start looking for a cheaper domain registrar. I would move ALL my domain names back if they offered a better price.

Directnic

DirectNIC provide great service and support for me.
I use DirectNIC since years ago and happy with them.
The only major minus of DirectNIC is their price too high.
If I have many domain names, those prices surely beat my pocket.
