I have a default reply for these... Hi, If you have unused IPv4 it should be returned to the pool. RIPE own the IP addresses, not you. I have informed RIPE of your position. Best regards, I then forward the email off to RIPE. Nothing ever seems to happen though, which is odd given that RIPE are the actual owners of the IP addresses it should be simple for them to reclaim any listed as for sale or lease?

Apparently has /22 blocks they would like to rent out, surely unused blocks should be in Ripe's hands, not profiteers? just a thought and how they gained the email address too. Anybody else had this?

I have received multiple times (to many of the LIRs I manage contact emails), this night, an e-mail coming from a RIPE NCC Board candidate, who promotes his candidacy. Be his candidacy admissible and decent or not, is not the point. But, is that kind of mass-mailing correct ? I also got this email (have a guess whom it was from…). I believe this kind of mass-mailing is in direct violation of article 4 - section 4 of RIPE DB terms and conditions (https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/support/documentation/terms).
