[members-discuss] Fwd: Re: RIPE DB T&C violation by brokers

Me too.

I got some similar emails within the last few weeks, and I have no idea if this is fraud or not. 

To avoid fraud, it might be a good idea to have an official auction of IP addresses on the RIPE website as trusted source.

Received this one below today. I'm pretty certain that they're also pulling contact data from https://www.ripe.net/membership/indices/data/cc.xxxx.html

There are rules already. See "Recognised IPv4 Transfer Broker Agreement" link to it is available on the brokers list page:
https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-transfers-and-mergers/brokers
https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-transfers-and-mergers/brokers/RecognisedIPv4Broker
greement.doc
But the Supplity is still there, despite:
2. The Broker shall adhere to the relevant RIPE Policies and RIPE NCC procedural documents ...
4. The Broker does not represent the RIPE NCC and shall not imply or create the impression to third parties that they represent the RIPE NCC.
6. This agreement shall be terminated:
* By the RIPE NCC with immediate effect if the Broker violates any of their obligations as outlined in this agreement ...

And it is known for sure, that Supplity impersonates RIPE NCC on its Facebook page (still), they were lying in their spam about getting e-mail on RIPE NCC's training courses. They are obviously using RIPE DB to collect e-mails to send their spam messages.

PS. I reported their page to Facebook several days ago, but looks like they are not going to do anything with it or may be waiting for zillions of reports. So who can - please make more reports about their page: (...) -> Find Support or Report Page -> Scams and Fake Pages -> Pretending to be Another Business (or another report reason you find suitable). May be it will help.
