Actually, William, this is not very helpful. And, if YOU were the Reseller you
would be named and forced to defend yourself in a suit -- and held liable if
YOU had been on explicit notice. But, none of that can happen unless there are
real damages. I'm talking about prevention.
Does anyone agree that we should Police this? Or, is the consensus that
processing fraud is OK since were're not the "victims?"
My point has always been that the systems are good, but too anonymous. In the
rare case of KNOWN fraud I feel we the Registrar should notice the Reseller
who would, subsequently, notice the customer. The spotlight will drive the bad
guys to other avenues; Tucows would be a better place. Does anyone agree?
Best, Loren

Then file charges. You are the victim, you are the only one who can
do that.
