we have received some messages that Harlow Butler Brokering Services, an international stockbroker, might try to apply for more IP address space at easy local-IR individually because their request for an unjustified amount of address space has been denied. They are talking about going to the registeries in each country directly to circumvent this decision and try to collect address space this way.
We would apreciate if any address assignement to this organisation would be handled with extreme discretion and we be notified of any requests from them, so we can coordinate an orderly process.
Geert, With such a warning can we have details on names and addresses to look out for - I know of at least one company who tried to do this to us by using different trading names. Kevin Hoadley, JIPS NOSC - UK registry of last resort.
