Guest guest Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Just out of curiosity, Marge, I tried " Naturegift.com " and guess what, there is a parked site, registered to ICM Intn.pty.,ltd. in Brisbane, Australia. Admin. Contact is Richard Guziak at 61 41 444 1207. Established 1999 - with no actual company yet using it. You might see about purchasing the domain name from that site, if reasonable enough as a preventative for a more aggressive grab by someone else who might purchase it. I don't think ICM is linked to the ugly conglomerate that got us, and looks legit (there are lots of parked domains) - ICM only has one other domain name, but it costs to find out what it is. This site has been parked since 1999. At least your company name isn't on the site and they aren't sending folks off to search engines for essential oils, so this one looks relatively benign. Thanks for the info about Sunburst We checked and Jucco Holdings who holds this ripoff domain (Sunburstbottles.com - the real site is Sunburstbottle.com) One little letter is all it takes. They ARE a part of this nasty group with over 85,000 registered sites. I'll contact Sunburst to see if we can't cooperate on a defense - maybe hook with others who've been slammed, too. The world is full of scammers, schemers and scuzzbags who can't make it on their own creative energy and have to rip off others. The internet is a perfect place for these predators, very difficult to track it all. We had a heckofa snowstorm last night - stranded my grandson and his friend visiting from SF, so I get to spend more time with him!! Works for me. :-) Be well, Marcia Elston Samara Botane/Nature Intelligence, est. 1988 http://www.wingedseed.com Online 3/95 http://www.aromaconnection.org Group Blog 2/07 " Historically, the most terrible things - war, genocide and slavery - have resulted from obedience, not disobedience.
