I have to agree from personal experience.  We got hit by someone using a
stolen credit card to register 4 domain names (each for 5 years), and
OpenSRS very quickly responded and placed the names on administrative hold.

I wasn't able to recover the financial loss (and didn't expect to), but
OpenSRS made sure that the jerk doesn't get to use the names.

I'm sorry but that is completely untrue.

Although compliance is completely overworked, they will eventually respond.
If
you send a support or compliance issue to "upper management" you are causing
an
even greater delay as they will simply forward it to the correct address.

Resellers are responsible for payment. However, if a domain is fraudulently
registered, compliance will place it on hold. You are still out the money
but
the scammer will not get the domain.

I hope this clears things up.
