two years ago they scammed 10000s webmasters for many million dollars by selling pre-registrations of .biz and .info domains. They do not even bothered to register them for you even when the domains were available for everyone. In my case my C.C. was getting billed by two different co. , i never received my domains, some of them probably are still available for registration (go figure).

I never saw anyone taking any action against 'em and of course none ever thought to push the domain registr. industry.

I can give you 100s examples of such mainstream fraud. If I ask you the same for our industry you'll tell me babenet and 3-4 more names.
I agree, the whole pre-registration was a total scam !
I registered a name, but can't access it now !
And all the fake bogus trademarks not verified at all - if you would only see my letters to Affilias and ICANN.
But, .... after that I actually got in the adlut biz.
