  Recently recived one myslf from jackey.zhuang@hongkongnet.org

  Is it an organisation (hongkongnet.org) listed / registered in HongKong ? Does someone have details of this organisation ?

• 6 joew // Jan 4, 2009 at 23:58

  @Anuj:

  The street address in their domain registration is fake / incomplete. They use a HK phone number but their WHOIS claims they’re based in Beijing. They probably don’t really want anyone to know where they’re based.

• 15 Someone in Europe // Feb 20, 2009 at 21:36

  Hi, thanks for your very useful website. I received this scam too, exactly like the Hong Kong examples above. I recently registered my company’s trade mark in a European country, so this Hong Kong email by someone called Leo Wang looked quite serious first. Apparently they use European trade mark databases as their source? Or is it a pure coincidence? Fortunately I am rather suspicious and the first thing I did, was using Google with a fragment of the scam mail. That brought me to your site (and several others). Thank God that there are websites like this, informing us about this nasty type of fraude.
  THANKS!

  Hello Marshall,

  the sad fact is that international online scams in general are a low priority for law enforcement in most countries, and this scam will rank low amongst other scams.

  As general rule, the police will not seriously get involved in international online scams unless the damages run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

  Scammers who defraud only people outside the country where they are based usually face little risk of arrest. This is not only true for scammers in China, but also in Europe, where say Nigerian scammers based in the Netherlands will refer Dutch victims to colleagues based in Spain, the UK or Nigeria (and vice versa), to make sure the police is always in another country.

  To be a bit cynical, police officers stand a better chance of getting promoted if they concentrate on cases where both the criminal and the victim are based in the same country as the officers and the courts. If they have too many cases to handle already, why should they concentrate on cases that do not directly affect their fellow countrymen?

  In the case of the registration scams, it’s not even that obvious that laws have been broken. Yes, they’re liars, swindlers, who are doing something highly unethical, but how can you or I *prove* that the third party they claim is after “our” domain names doesn’t actually exist?

  It’s not like we were placing an order for 100 cell phones, pay for them and then not receiving them. When even that kind of openly criminal scam barely gets prosecuted, what hope is there with scams like these? Not much.

  While there is a lot to be done to clean up internet related services in China (including numerous international spam gangs using Chinese servers as hubs of their criminal botnets), relatively small scale scams like this one are not going to be at the top of anyone’s list.

  Thanks for this. I received an email from hknsc.hk. first thing this morning. Initially I dismissed it as a scam but got a bit worried when I saw their quantcast rating and wondered if they are were actually a large and legitimate company. Typed in hknsc scare in Google and found the posts to your site which seem to indicate they are just out to scare domain owners in to registering useless domain names. I suppose they could actually build their whole business on this – considering how many poeple worldwide will respond to them. The company they allege to be in pursuit of our domain name has “zero” presence on the Net. Thanks for the information.

  Dear CEO ,

  We are a professional Internet consultant organization in Asia, which mainly deal with the global companies’ domain name registration and internet intellectual property right protection. Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with your company.On May 13th, 2009, we received an application formally, one person named “Peter Alldis” wanted to applied for the Internet brand “YOUR.DOMAIN.NAME” and some domain names through our body.
  During our preliminary investigation,we found that these domain names’ keyword and internet brand is identical with your trademark. I wonder whether you consigned “Peter Alldis” to register these domain names through us or not? Or is “Peter Alldis” your business partner or distributor in Asia? Currently, we have postponed this application of this company temporarily already. In order to deal with this issue better, please let the principal make a confirmation with me by telephone or email ASAP.
  In addition, I must state that we have time limited for one person or one company’s registration. It is just 15 days. If your company files doesn’t resent within the time limited. We will unconditionally authorized the application of “Peter Alldis”.Thank you for your cooperate.

  We have had two e-mials..an ‘introduction’ and then a second, more detailed message of ‘intent’ listing the seven domains that this ‘company’ was intending to register’on behalf of their ‘client’ .

  Ours was another one generated using hk-nsc.org but this person openly gives his web address as ‘www.hknsc.hk’ a legitimate looking company that actually shows its true e-mail contact is ‘info@hknsc.hk’

  Our ‘contact’ is a Henry William.
  However, his command of the English Language is not quite all that one might expect from someone with such an Anglo Saxon name……I wonder whether he has Charles, James and George as middle names…….

  Dear Sir or Madam,

  We are a domain name registration center in Hong Kong, mainly dealing with domain name registration and internet intellectual property rights protection. On May 11,2009 we received a formal application from a local company who is applying to register several domains, using “surestartresources ”as the Internet keyword. After investigation,we find that you are the original user of the keyword. Such similar domain cases may involve your trademark and company name,and may cause website confusion and conflicts. For a responsible attitude, we inform you here and ask for your opinion. If you don’t mind,we will finish registration for the third company.

  Look forward to your reply.

  Thanks

  Kind Regards,
  Henry

  I replied to this guy, asking how much to register the domains. Their prices were reasonable, however the catch was it was a minimum 5 years registration period. If we had registered all of them for 5 years, the cost would have run to a couple of thousand dollars. He even had the hide to phone me after emailing a registration form. His accent was Chinese, but he had clearly learned his English from someone with an American accent.

  I did some quick checks and found that the website mentioned in his address block failed to work. Another tell-tale sign it was a scam is that his email domain didn’t match his website domain. I ran a Who-Is check on the website domain name and interestingly it had only been registered two weeks prior to me receiving his solicitation:

  eworld.hk / eworlddnr.com / eworld.hk.cn are all used with the same HK phone number for this scam.

  A lookup of the domain registrant of eworlddnr.com finds:

  ====
  Domain Name: EWORLDDNR.COM
  Registrar: TODAYNIC.COM, INC.
  Whois Server: whois.todaynic.com
  Referral URL: http://www.NOW.CN
  Name Server: NS3.01ISP.COM
  Name Server: NS4.01ISP.NET
  Status: clientTransferProhibited
  Updated Date: 08-jul-2009
  Creation Date: 08-jul-2009
  Expiration Date: 08-jul-2010

  Registrant:
  Name: LiQing
  Address: HK
  City: Hk
  Province/state: HK
  Country: CN
  Postal Code: 519000

  Administrative Contact:
  Name: LiQing
  Organization: LiQing
  Address: HK
  City: Hk
  Province/state: HK
  Country: CN
  Postal Code: 519000
  Phone: +86.8338669799
  Fax: +86.8338669799
  Email: 1domain@163.com
  ====

  This shows that
  1) the domain was registered with an incomplete postal address.
  2) the registrant is unaware that Hong Kong doesn’t use post codes. Mainland China uses six digit codes such as 519000 (the city of Zhuhai in Guangdong province), but Hong Kong does not.
  3) The domain was only registered one week ago.
  4) the listed phone number is a Chinese number, not a Hong Kong number.

  These scammers are not based in Hong Kong as they are trying to make you believe, but in mainland China. That’s where their website is hosted too.

  I got one too…

  Dear CEO & Principal,

  We are a domain name registration and dispute organization in Asia, which mainly deal with the global companies’ domain name registration and internet Intellectual property right protection. Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with your company.

  On July 15, 2009, we received an application formally. One company named “LYP International co., Inc” wanted to applied for the domain names”gerentgroup.asia,etc.” and Internet keyword “Gerentgroup” through our body.

  Now we are handling with the registration of these domain names and find that the keyword of these domain names and internet keyword is identical with your company’s. So we have to confirm with you at two points:
  1. If your company consign LYP company to register these domain names and internet keyword, we will send application form to them and help them finish the registration at once.
  2. If your company have nothing to do with LYP company, they maybe have other purposes to register these domain names and internet keyword.

  We haven’t finished the registration of LYP company yet, and we have postponed this application of this company temporarily already. In order to deal with this issue better, please contact us by telephone or email as soon as possible.

  Best Regards,
  Aaron

  Just got one today:

  Dear CEO/Manager,

  We are a domain name registration center in HongKong, mainly dealing with domain name registration and internet intellectual property rights protection. On Aug 20, 2009 we received a formal application from a company who is applying to register several domains, using “asuta” as the internet keyword. After investigation, we find that you are the original user of the keyword. Such similar domain cases may involve your company name or trade mark, and may cause website confusion and conflicts. For a responsible attitude, we inform you here and your opinion, in order to deal with this issue better, please contact us by email or telephone ASAP.

  Looking forward to your reply.

  hk-nsc.hk is hosted on the same server as hknsc.hk and can therefore be assumed to be part of the same scam series as erimut.com, erimart.com, erimart-domains.com.cn and hknsc.hk.

  The following domains used for these scams appear to have been disabled: erimut.com, eworld.hk.cn, eworlddnr.com, worldwidesolution.org

  Many of these domains use name servers 01isp.com and 01isp.net. Looking at the IP addresses of the following domains using these name servers, it appears many are hosted in the same neighbourhood:

  87-global.asia = 202.104.186.4
  eworld.hk = 202.104.186.4
  hk-net.hk = 202.104.186.4
  hk-nsc.hk = 202.104.186.4
  hk-nsc.org = 202.104.186.4
  hknetwork.hk = 202.104.186.4
  hknsc.hk = 202.104.186.4
  hknsc.org = 202.104.186.4

  asiachannel.com.cn = 202.104.186.6
  augnetworks.cn = 202.104.186.6
  fw-publicdomain.org.cn = 202.104.186.6
  hk-nsc.org.cn = 202.104.186.6
  qepeng.org.cn = 202.104.186.6
  registry-china.org.cn = 202.104.186.6

  fw-chinadnr.net.cn = 203.169.164.18
  fw-chinadnr.net = 203.169.164.18
  fw-chinadnr.org.cn = 203.169.164.18
  fw-chinadnr.org = 203.169.164.18
  fwo-cdnr.net.cn = 203.169.164.18
  fwo-cdnr.org.cn = 203.169.164.18
  hk-net.org.cn = 203.169.164.18
  tc-chinareg.org.cn = 203.169.164.18
  tuojing-china.cn = 203.169.164.18

  The scammers are constantly coming up with new domain names for the same old scam, but are hosting them on the same Chinese servers.

• 56 Joe Wein // Aug 23, 2009 at 16:32

  skbyte.com is the same scam as sk-network.org / dnrcenter.hk / setl.hk.cn:

• 61 Joe Wein // Aug 30, 2009 at 13:50

  Very odd that one of these Chinese registrars posts a comment here in the thread. As you can see, ygregistrar.org.cn uses the same phone (+86 21 6296 2950) and fax (86-021-6296 1557) numbers as ygchina.org.cn – a common pattern amongst Chinese domain scammers.

  Google for the phone number and you find:

  http://www.ygchina.org.cn
  http://www.ygregistrar.org.cn
  http://www.ygregistry.cn
  http://www.yiguanregistry.cn
  http://www.ygisp.cn
  http://www.ygdns.org.cn
  http://www.dhtdns.cn
  http://www.dhtdns.org.cn
  http://www.dnisp.cn

  No doubt there will be many more, as long as these scammers make money. Any email that mentions these numbers is likely to be sent by the same scammers:

  +86 21 6296 2950
  +86-21-6296-1557
  +86(0)21-6296-2950
  +86(0)21-6296-1557

  011-86-21-6296-2950
  011-86-21-6296-1557

  Even if it’s a different phone number and name, as long as they alert you to someone else registering a similar domain to your own then it’s a scam as legitimate registrars would never contact people who are not their customers.

• 62 Melanie // Sep 3, 2009 at 11:09

  I’m so gullible! I actually replied to the first letter. So now some financial holdings company wants to use my ceramic tile domain. (That makes sense) Apparently they’ll hold this company off for 5 days while I decide to buy up all the chinese versions of my domain. Unless of course, if I’m doing business in China. Evidently, that will cause some sort of conflict or problem

  Thanks so much for posting this information!!

  I challenge everyone here to teach them a lesson or get revenge in the most clever way. Perhaps we should all ask them for information and believe we are interested and make them work hard but then dont give them any business in the end.

  How come? They are scam?!

  You’re posting from China, where these fraudulent registrars are based. Assuming for a moment that you are not one of their employees, they may well have legitimate customers in China.

  This does not mean that the many fraudulent email sent to domain holders all over the world, in which they pretend that some third party was just about to register look-alike variants of their domain, are in any way genuine. They are not. It’s nothing but a fraudulent scare tactic to part people from their money.

  If eworld.hk / eworlddnr.hk was a genuine registrar, there would be no need for it to operate under all of the following domain names:

  eworld.hk / hk-net.hk / hk-nsc.hk / hk-nsc.org / hknetwork.hk / hknsc.hk / hknsc.org / asiachannel.com.cn / augnetworks.cn / fw-publicdomain.org.cn / hk-nsc.org.cn / qepeng.org.cn / registry-china.org.cn / fw-chinadnr.net.cn / fw-chinadnr.net / fw-chinadnr.org.cn / fw-chinadnr.org / fwo-cdnr.net.cn / fwo-cdnr.org.cn / hk-net.org.cn / tc-chinareg.org.cn / tuojing-china.cn / 87-global.asia

  The scammers intimidate you into paying them to register .CN and other domains because a bogus Chinese company is about to register the .CN domain before you.

  EXAMPLE EMAIL:

  Dear CEO,

  We are one of the leading internet solutions organizations in China, have something to confirm with you. We formally received an application on July 27th, one company which self-styled ” Aneu Trading Inc ” were applying to register “(NOTE: THEY INSERT YOUR COMPANY HERE – Ed)” as brand name and following Asia/ China domain names:

  (THEY PUT A LIST OF DOMAIN NAMES .CN, HK, etc. HERE – Ed.)

  After our initial checking, we found the brand name and these domain names were similar to your company’s, so we need to check with you whether your company has authorized that company to register these names.
  If you authorized this, we will automatically finish the registration for them and link to their website. If you did not authorize, please let us know within 7 workdays, so that we will handle this issue better. Out of the time limit we will unconditionally finish the registration for ” Aneu Trading Inc “.

  china-fewon.com.cn and china-fewon.org are owned by the same people, same phone numbers and are hosted on IP 202.104.186.6, which already hosted “px-china.net.cn”, “px-china.org.cn” and “pixi-china.net.cn”.

  This about the 4th time I’ve been sent this scam.
  The first time I freaked out and was about to call my IP Lawyer then my gut feeling told me to type the company name into Google followed by SCAM.
  Below is the way that I handle them…..harsh but fair I reckon!

  Conversation: Read: About “Uchi” intellectual property rights( TO CEO &Principal )
  Subject: Re: Read: About “Uchi” intellectual property rights( TO CEO &Principal )

  Dear Oliver,

  I have spoken to Mr Dick Waylong at our subsidiary company Laereace International Holdings Ltd and he advises me that he has not yet received the application form that you said you would send through upon my authorisation (see email dated 06.10.09).

  Could you please advise if this has been sent yet and if so who it was sent to? Mr Dick Waylong believes that Mr Ivor Chugnut in the Marketing Department may have sent the original application that you received but he is on vacation up at Porpoise Spit with his elderly mother so we can’t contact him to check as I don’t think they get the internet at Porpoise Spit, I know they certainly don’t get colour television up there….imagine only being able to get black & white TV??? what a pain.

  It does strike me as odd that in your initial email you state that you “received an application formally” from Laereace International Holdings Ltd and then you say that upon our authorisation you “will send application form to them and help them finish the registration at once” – considering you have the original application, can’t you just process that? But then I guess you Chinese people always do have some strange ways of doing things. Plus I’ve certainly never understood why you think those boiled chicken feet taste so good. And I’m sorry, but it’s true, you are really bad drivers.

  I’d appreciate if you could let me know where this is at immediately, I don’t really like wasting time following up on things like this particularly when I have a pressing deadline on a very important project – I need to finalise by next Wednesday the design drawings that we are submitting for “The 2009 Annual Australasia & South East Asia Colostomy Bag Design Competition” – we’ve entered it every year since 1997 but we’ve always come Number Two which is a bit of a dump and I really think this year we might win it – we always name our designs after planets, last year was Jupiter and the year before that was Mars and this years entry is called Uranus. Would you like me to send you some copies of the drawings of Uranus? That way you’ll have a really good understanding of what we do which is important if you are handling all our Intellectual Property requirements. I think you’ll find them interesting, everyone that I have shown the drawings of Uranus to so far have been speechless although one or two people did think it was a bit on the large side and can you believe that one person actually said they thought that our submission of Uranus stank??? I think that is a little harsh actually.

  But anyway.

  We need to have this whole domain names and network trademark thing sorted out before we submit our Design Drawings of Uranus for the competition on Wednesday and that is only 4 more sleeps to go if you live in Australia but it’s 5 more sleeps to if you live in the USA (which I don’t) because they are a day behind Australia, I think they used to be at least a week behind us, if not years, however since they elected President Obama they seem to be catching up with the rest of the world. Do you think he will let the Gays get married? I think he should because those Gays really know how to throw a party don’t they?

  I hope your English is very good and you can understand how urgent this matter is. If your Engrish is no good, prease let me know and I transrate into Chinglish for you. I am very fluent in Chinglish because I buy my groceries from a Chinese Grocery Store and I like to read the labels on the back of the packets. Just to prove to you how fluent I am in Chinglish I’ll write some things about the Hair Shampoo I bought recently – “After wasing, no scruf shall exist and her passion fragrant smell prevailing in the world can bring elegant and fragrant smell to successful peopol”.
  Tell me Oliver, do you think my accent was okay? Sometimes people think I am Chinese because my accent is so good, which is kind of weird don’t you think? Particularly because I am 5 foot 11 inches tall and have red hair.

  Please advise the status of this very important matter URGENTLY.

  Kind regards

  Melinda Lawrence

  Hello!Sorry to trouble you!
  We are a internet service provider and based in HongKong, which mainly deal with the global companies’ domain name registration and internet intellectual property right protection. Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with your company.

  On Oct 28.2009.

But after our investigation, we found this trademark conflicts with your company’s name and trademark, so we send you email and want to confirm with you on whether you have authorized the Hellolly Holdings Limited to register these domain names and Internet trademark.We need to know the comment of your company because the domain names and Internet trademark may relate to the copyright of brand name on internet.

  I received this Hellolly holdings email which my wife instantly denounced as a scam but I investigated by asking my hosting company for advice.

  They said they thought it was probably genuine so I’ve gone ahead and registered more European domains but via my hosting company. I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now since another firm who clearly wanted my domain name have registered a name quite similar.

  Anyway thanks for the information I tell the hosting company that this is a recent scam.

  Same here.

  I received an e-mail like this today and didn’t know that it was a scam. Thus I sent a normal reply, saying that I am the legal owner of the domain in question relating to my company and now await their reply – most likely there will be none.

  If I had known, that it was a scam, the e-mail would have gone to Junk straight away.

  Dear Manager,

  I’m a overseas representative of Todaynic.com,Inc., which is one of the biggest and most famous professional providers of domain name and network service in China.

  Now we have something need to confirm with you. We hope you can cooperate with us.

  On Jan 25th 2010,we received an application from one person named “Conlin Scott” who attempted to register following domains.

  my-domain-here.asia
  my-domain-here.cc
  my-domain-here.com.hk
  my-domain-here.com.tw
  my-domain-here.hk
  my-domain-here.in
  my-domain-here.net.cn
  my-domain-here.org.cn
  my-domain-here.tw

  According to our investigation, we found that above domain names are related to your company’s name or trademark. If Conlin Scott doesn’t work for your company

  and you don’ authorize him to register these domains,we think their registrations maybe have some influence on your aisan market development,so we inform you about

  this issue and hope you can protect your interests.

  We are dealing with the domain name application in these days, so we wish to get the confirmation and the assent of your company.

  Waiting for your soonest response!

  todaynic.com is a 9 year old domain name, so one would assume them to be legitimate, but todaynic.gd.cn is more recent (just over 2 years old). You’re right, whether they are otherwise legitimate or not, this is the same scam as the others.

  We are a domain name registration and dispute organization in Asia, which mainly deal with the global companies’ domain name registration and internet Intellectual property right protection in Asia Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with your company.

  On Feb. 28, 2010, We received an application formally. One company named “LungFed Investment Co.,Ltd” wanted to applied for the Internet Keywords “your-domain-name” and some domain names through our body.

  During our preliminary investigation, we found that these domain names’ keyword and Internet Keywords is identical with your trademark. Meanwhile, it is in the special time of financial crisis. Many companies are registering and protecting their own internet intellectual property right in various methods. These days we are dealing with this case, I wonder whether you consigned LungFed Investment Co.,Ltd to register these domain names through us? If yes, we will complete the registration on these domain names and Internet Keywords. Or you do not even know this company what so ever? Currently, we have postponed this application of this company temporarily already. In order to deal with this issue better, we need to know the opinion of your company, this matter is very urgent, please contact us as soon as possible. Please let someone in your company who is responsible for trademark or intellectual right contact me freely.
