I’ll let ARIN staff give the definitive answer, but my understanding (which may not be 100% correct but should be relatively close) is addresses obtained or held in a manner inconsistent with the policies stated in the NRPM and/or in violation of the RSA. > On this we agree… The form letter I suggested should contain a link to this > FAQ, as should the fraud report filing page. > > > > That's seems more like an abuse like auto-responder which is easy to fire and > forget. I'd like to see more eyes on the complaints, but an attempt to > increase the quality of what they will put eyes to. No, I’m specifically not suggesting an auto-responder. I’m suggesting a form letter where once the eyeballs have determined the complaint is out of scope, they don’t spend a bunch of time composing a message that may or may not be 100% correct, they pull up the stock message, maybe add a couple of details relevant to why this specific report was considered out of scope, and then send it off to the requestor. It shouldn’t be automatically sent to every requestor. Owen
