Warning! Be on lookout for possible Imposter, maybe scammer?
 
I am the former owner of XXXWebmastersResources.com. As many of you already know, this was the resources site, contained herein my sig. On 6/29/2006 , ownership of this domain was transferred to nic known as Bad Boy Billy. (Sorry, but I am refraining from posting personal info).

Shortly thereafter, I discovered that "Bad Boy Billy" still has not changed anything with the domain, & that he has the front page still up with all my links that were in place prior to sale.
I was curious, so did a whois, & discovered that my personal info was listed in the whois, whereas before the whois contained my company information & not my personal info. I immediatly notified "Bad Boy Billy" to remove my information. He did not comply & I notified namecheap, whom the domain was transfered via my registrar Melbourne IT to "Bad Boy Billy" via namecheap.

Today, here nearly almost a month later, I notice whois has only been slightly modified & shows both modified references to my person as well as my business. I immediatly sent a formal complaint to namecheap.com & Internic regarding the false whois information.

This "Bad Boy Billy" has not responded to my emails, & I am not certain on what could or may be his motives on having my information appear on public whois, as I no longer own this domain as of 6/29/2006.

I am concerned about what at this point is only speculation & hypothetical, but the possibility exists that this person could or may be out to sabotage me, or could be out to scam people & use me as the fall guy. I don't know. This is just possiible scenario out of many possibilities, but just be on the lookout for me.. I do not like the idea of my information appearing on a domain I no longer maintain, nor have possession or control of,,



Thanks
