Hi John,

Thanks for sharing. I'd like to note that it can be dangerous to use the blocks 
transferred via 8.2/8.3/9.4 as a metric for abuse. A fraudster that gets past 
ARIN's scrutiny and obtains IPs with fraudulent information is probably smart 
enough to lease their IPs as opposed to selling the space outright. There is a 
huge market for leased space, and those deals happen behind closed doors with 
no oversight from ARIN. IP addresses go for $0.2-0.5/mo depending on term/IP 
reputation/size which could lead to $XX,XXX in illicit revenue with no risk of 
ARIN's scrutiny which would normally occur during the transfer process.

Best Regards,

Robert Clarke
