Marco - I know what you mean ... but I don't think AUNIC is the source. I have registered business names (but without corresponding domain names) and have similarly received marketing materials from our friend about their services. I believe that the source of information is through a simple search at the office of fair trading for $13.20.

While the above is true, the domain was registered to the client by us (the hosting provider) and was due for renewal and as such we sent the renewal notice (price far lower than ING) for renewal at the right time!. What I am trying to say is that I know how they do this and I will even tell you how I found out. Firstly, I have quietly registered a new business name with the Fair Trading. then using my reseller account with MIT to register the domain name. I have not done any kind of marketing for the domain, no search engine submissions, zero marketing, I wanted to keep quiet about this domain for my future project. Two month Later I recieve a letter from ING, informing me about the domain name , promotions and their pricing. I know one thing now, the only source they have is the aunic registry, as it makes all account details available to the mining party. the ASIC registry does not provide any contact details, nor does the ABR (Australian Business Register). The only way is aunice registry details. To AuDa: Once you have blammed NetRegistry for a security breach of the aunic data, But this data has always been available on aunic, and if you write a script, you can drill this data for all what it has!. AuDa, What are going to do about it???????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! regards, Marco Botros Operations Manager Spirit Servers mehanna§spiritservers.com.au http://spiritservers.com.au ******************************************************* Spirit Servers, "A Solid, Reliable .dotHosting". ----- Original Message ----- From: Ginger Fish <ginger-fish§scifi-art.com> To: <dns§lists.auda.org.au> Sent: Friday, March 01, 2002 11:20 AM Subject: RE: [DNS] Now I am ANGRY Way to go, Ron. Can you believe that a few companies out there only live on stealing renewals from other companies, and they get some decent business ...of course without the leak(s) in the central node of the system, that would be a bit more difficult , but still .. Of course to mask the main activity you can always "propose new products" around , a dummy rego site with exotic namespaces and other dummy tools that will make you "sound" like a serious company that worries a lot about consumes well being ...shit like that ... Ginger the Avenger -----Original Message----- From: Ron Stark [mailto:ronstark§businesspark.com.au] Sent: Friday, March 01, 2002 10:11 AM To: dns§lists.auda.org.au Subject: [DNS] Now I am ANGRY There's always another one .... Not 30 minutes ago I received a concerned phone call from one of our clients, who had just received an unsolicited renewal notice from an outfit DDNS (Discount Domain Name Services). The renewal notice cites the domain expiry date (Where DID they get the info?) in May, and is a clear attempt to hijack one of our clients. What REALLY makes me angry is the bold large statement on the bottom of the renewal notice ... "We support the AUDA resellers (sic) code of conduct". To Simon Taft, if you're reading this - YOU ARE IN CLEAR VIOLATION OF THAT CODE OF CONDUCT, even in its current draft form. I doubt that you even know what it means. You have no right to abuse or misrepresent auDA or its Code of Conduct in this way, and your company's behaviour is totally unacceptable. Were there penalty provisions in place already, I would activate them against you without any compunction or hesitation.
