Gioconda Law Group Sues Canadian 'Cyber Security' Developer (domain squatter)
(via Lauren Weinstein) Gioconda Law Group Sues Canadian 'Cyber Security' Developer (domain squatter) http://j.mp/NpkVmY (JD Journal) "However, the Gioconda Law Group alleged that according to recent discoveries, it had found that Kenzie had registered an internet domain name GiocondoLaw.com as a misspelling of GiacondaLaw.com. Then Kenzie had proceeded to create fake e-mail accounts to intentionally intercept private e-mails addressed to the firm's lawyers and staff. Giaconda said, "We discovered the cybersquatting and sent several test e-mail messages to see if they were delivered to the misspelled e-mail addresses, and indeed, they were received by active mailboxes." Kenzie had initially tried to conceal his identity, but complaints to the Internet Registrar exposed him. According to the lawsuit, Kenzie is similarly harvesting misspelled e-mails intended for many major corporations without their knowledge or permission including MasterCard, McDonald's, NewsCorp and McAfee." - -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Joly MacFie 218 565 9365 Skype:punkcast WWWhatsup NYC - http://wwwhatsup.com http://pinstand.com - http://punkcast.com VP (Admin) - ISOC-NY - http://isoc-ny.org -------------------------------------------------------------- -
