Subject: Domain heist

Dear Declan McCullagh,
I publish a site called Textism. A reader wrote suggesting I draw your
attention -- and perhaps the attention of your mailing list -- to a domain
hijacking issue.
A friend of mine, Leslie Harpold, published a well-respected blog/site
called at hoopla.com. A few days ago her domain was illegally transferred
to someone named Hubert Sarah in Berlin, seemingly on the basis of one fax
to NetSol.
Some details are here: http://www.textism.com/article/490
Today's update is here: http://www.textism.com/article/494
I understand this sort of thing happens with some regularity, but the sheer
unwillingness of NetSol to fixing a breach of their own contract may prove
to be of interest to your list.
Thank you,
- Dean Allen
