Domain Theft:
A Real Threat


After the ICANN changes in late 2004 allowing easier domain transfers, several companies have had their domains transferred illegally. In just one of the reported incidents, f3.com and aem.com were stolen as a result of incorrect WHOIS contact information and the fact the domains were unlocked.

Thousands of confidential emails were intercepted and web traffic was diverted to spyware infested websites. This highlights the need for correct domain WHOIS contact information and locking your domain. GG Group has started locking domains and verifying contact information for contract clients, but any assistance on your part will greatly help us in expediting the process.

Please feel free to contact us if you would like to check that your domain(s) have been secured by GG Group or if you would like to initiate a transfer to GG Group's preferred registrar and DNS services.
