We have some good news for all those effected by RegisterFly. Although news is good, it is also requested by the administrator of this site that you go into your registerfly.com account and change your password immediately. Please read on...
Registerfly Current Status
Currently John and Glenn have control over the domain name
www.registerfly.com and have all that data backed up. It has been
reported that all the data that ICANN requested has been provided to
ICANN.
RegisterFly, Inc. in New Jersey, (The official RegisterFly.com Registrar)
Glenn reportedly said he currently has 20 people answering the phone so
that the customers hear a real voice and see that they are working on
the situtation. Additionally, they have approximately 15 other staff
members working on support related issues and ticket backlogs. It has
been reported also that transfer authorization codes are being
populated and that whois information is being corrected and updated and
that they have a back-up of the correct ownership of names that fell
under the whois protection or ProtectFly service.
It has also been reported that Kevin in Miami is completely blocked out with no access to Registerfly.com at all.
Protect Your DATA
While RegisterFly has been successful in removing the former CEO,
Kevin Medina and then successfully transferring the domain name:
RegisterFly.com out of his (Kevin's) control, that does not mean we are in the
clear. As it stands, Kevin will not have any access to your data from
this point forward.
Now, what you must understand is that Kevin Medina also has a copy
of the data that he had gotten from Registerfly while he was CEO. This
data includes your address, password, your domain names and other
information that is tied to your RegisterFly account. This means that
while he is on the outs and cannot do anything to hurt RegisterFly
anymore, he could essentially log into your account and transfer your
domains out using your information. So if he can log into your account
and change the whois on your account then guess what; he can take
control of your domain name. He could also change the nameservers and
everything else that you have in your account. At this time, he would
not be able to do this on a bulk level because he doesn't have access
to the registries, but he could in fact log into the accounts of large
domain owners and do some major damage. His IP is blocked, but that
means very little. It's very possible that he could have a staff
working with him to duplicate the possible damage that could be done
with the information he has. So, until you've taken action to change
the original data that Kevin has control of, your account is at risk.
I'm asking everyone of the users here to change your passwords for
your own protection. This is only my opinion and I was not asked to tell you this but I can see this as being a potential problem.
CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD IMMEDIATELY
Registerfly.net is a Phishing Site
Folks, Kevin Medina is in full control of Registerfly.net and more
than likely had converted the data he has to fill in the fields of
Registerfly.net. Registerfly.net has nothing to do with
RegisterFly.com, Inc. It is completely under the control of Kevin Medina
and Unified Names - Miami. DO NOT conduct business with
Registerfly.net in any way, shape, or form.
Since the old data that
Kevin controlled as CEO of RegisterFly, he has your email addresses.
Don't be surprised if you receive an email from Registerfly.net telling
you that Registerfly.net is the new and official website for
RegisterFly. It is not. The site (registerfly.net) is a fraud that was produced to
take money from customers who don't know any better; in essence: a phishing site. Registerfly.net
is not ICANN Accredited (although that means very little), and the
registries are working with RegisterFly.com, not Registerfly.net. DO
NOT GET SUCKED INTO SENDING MONEY TO REGISTERFLY.NET.
Moving Forward
As it sits currently, there will be no more names being deleted or
going into redemption. ICANN has made this very clear to all the
registries involved in the RegisterFly scandal. The New Jersey
operation is up and running and they are scrambling to assist. Please
reach deep for enough patience to deal with a staff that is only half
trained in dealing with these kind of issues. Remember, the staff is
there, they are working hard to make stuff happen. They want to make things right for the customer, and the bad egg is finally out.
This site
needs your help. Please use our link exchange at the bottom of the
page to exchange links with us. It's important that everyone that is
being shifted to Registerfly.net know that this site is here. Money is
still flowing into the Miami operation and this isn't good. There are
too many customers out there who don't know where here. Please help us
with link popularity to make these people aware of what's going on, and
remember......
