Find the contact details in the appropriate RIR Database for all non RIPE address space covered by these ROUTE objects. Send them a notification with a link to click if they approve of the ROUTE object. If no response is received within a defined time period, delete the ROUTE object.</span></div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149839"><div><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150034">cheers</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150036">denis</div><div dir="ltr">co-chair DB WG</div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150038"><br></div><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149848" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149847"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, Sans-Serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149846"> <div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149845"> <font id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150040" size="2" face="Arial"> <hr id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150042" size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Job Snijders via db-wg <db-wg@ripe.net><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Brian Rak <brak@choopa.com> <br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cc:</span></b> db-wg@ripe.net<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Thursday, 9 November 2017, 17:53<br> <b id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150060"><span style="font-weight: bold;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_150059">Subject:</span></b> Re: [db-wg] Getting fraudulent entries removed<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1510143306444_149850"><br>Dear Brian,<br clear="none"><br clear="none">It appears that RIPE NCC is lacking a clear and expedient procedure to<br clear="none">remedy unauthorised route object creation.
