Hello, We understand and acknowledge your concern however, we at ISOC Delhi Chapter do not promote or encourage any business model or marketing of any particular company/ business. As everyone is aware that Office bearers of ISOC Delhi are all volunteers who have been elected by the community and each of them are employed and/or associated elsewhere. ISOC Delhi is involved in building capacity, outreach and engagement among the community based on the mission of ISOC. However, we do not promote or market any individual's business or careers. The said auctioning has been organized by the person at his individual capacity and ISOC Delhi has nothing to do with it but as we see the matter is of high concern and reputation we have sought an explanation from the Individual for the below mentioned incident. Thanks Natasha Finance (Office Bearer) ISOC India Delhi Chapter From: APAC-Discuss <apac-discuss-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org> On Behalf Of Neeraj Kumar Sent: Sunday, September 1, 2019 5:25 PM To: APAC-Discuss <apac-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Cc: goran.marby@icann.org Subject: [APAC-Discuss] Shady domain business/auctions by ICANN & ISOC affiliated members in India Not very pleasant developments happening in India in recent months. Just got to know that a multiple-times ICANN Fellow & current ISOC Delhi officebearer has been involved in shady domain businesses and recently organised a Domain Auction which was nothing but a joke with auctioneer indulging in shill bidding to manipulate prices / grab domains, not paying to seller whose domains were sold at the auction and a buyer who had won many domains and paid but didn't get the domains. The following forum posts have detailed info about what happened at the auction https://www.namepros.com/threads/domainx-2019-live-auction-very-bad-experien ce-unhonest-auction.1148744/ https://www.namepros.com/threads/first-live-auction-domainx-2019-conference- new-delhi.1145779/page-4 The last 12 minutes show the auctioner bidding on the domain himself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=u_yXP1faeaw> &v=u_yXP1faeaw I am surprised how such people have been getting nominated to positions that require high levels of ethics, integrity???
