The issue is, this is a constant thing. Not by this broker, but also by 
other brokers.

If it was a once off, nobody would have a problem. But it has become 
common place just to farm the RIPEdb, then spam away.

The data in the RIPEdb is not for commerce. Full stop. It's for admin, 
billing and tech purposes. Operational purposes.

Marketing, sales and purchase are not to be based upon that data. Full stop.

Kind regards,
