Subject: [Coco] bogus WhoIs complaint



After a few days of investigating, here is the thread that led to 
someone filing a false WhoIs dispute for my site.
The godaddy rep told me that the complaint came from --> 
<mailto:wdprs_internic_net at it-mate.co.uk>wdprs_internic_net at it-mate.co.uk
The person involved filed directly through ICANN.

The likely source is either spgSCOTT from avast.com or Steven Burn 
from it-mate.co.uk.
spgSCOTT "reported" coco3.com to Steven, and one or both of them 
proceded to "police" the coco3.com site which was under attack at the 
time.  Victimized while being victimized.

Here's the thread that ultimately led to godaddy charging me an 
arbitrary $9.95 fee (which they refunded yesterday).

The goofball that likely thought nobody would figure how who did it -->
