Where to report for fake whois data provided for a domain?
I have seen many Guys registering domains with fake who is details and making many problems to public.

So as we can report here http://wdprs.internic.net for .com domain
Is there any website where we can report .IN domains using fake who is address.
Or should we report it at http://inregistry.in/Contact Us using email

I would think the domain could be lost .. With the harsh .in registry rules.

They have taken names over less, no ?
 
only if you are sure on this, go ahead.
consult any cyber / domain lawyer to take your case forward to guide you well .

Process is as follow :

1. After your complain .IN registry, they will inform concern registrar to verify the accuracy of whois record within 15 days ? if whois record found inaccurate and rectified by the registrant or registrar within that period, then no issue ? but if no changes are made inspite of that then .IN registry have limited scope in that. You have to go in the court of Law or initiate the INDRP process OR if you have strong and known mark then even hard copy notice of attorney where you try to prove that you have substantial interest in the domain name and you want to go legal against the registrant for violation , then you may get the name suspended from the registry?

In short , In general practice any party who want to file the case or want to take legal action against the registrant of domain name, issues the notice and if notice are return undelivered then the complaint is filed to registry by aggrieved party, but if somebody just find that the whois record is not proper and file the complaint then .IN registry simply forward the complaint to registrar and if same is not rectified then you have to go to court of law or in INDRP process and you have best chances to get the domain name suspended and if you have other required INDRP conditions fulfilled then can even get the domain name.

Even in case of .com etc. lot of domain name are kept under whois privacy and did you ever think that any registrar gives you the contact details of the registrant on your simple complaint ? We think NO ? you require to give proper attorney notice or bring some sort of proof that abuse or violation is going on particular domain name only after that some registrar gives info or some even refuses to give ? ultimately you require to send hard copy notices to them only after they give info.

So if you are planning to file complaint before registry then it means you have substantial interest in the said name and want to start legal process.
 
contact domain registrar first - they will be able to help you in this regard.

If it does not workout then take it up with registry.
 
hi members...
could you please tell what would be the legal consequences once the fake user is detected?

It depend on registrar process, they would ask domain owner to update proper who-is data. if it does not happen within stimulated time frame then domain may get suspended. It depends on severity of dispute been raised. If that's a claim been made by legal owner in according with domain-dispute-resolution, there is high chance fake domain owner may loose his domain ownership.
 
I reported one .in domain which has fake whois data and using adult porn pictures.
Got reply from Inregistry Support
"Please be informed that the said domain has been suspended now."

The domain is working now, I think it may took 24hour or 48 hour to be fully deleted.
I'll inform here, when it happens.

If it is suspended it will be immediate. It will not take too much time.

Please check with them again.
 
I see the domain is suspended fully, it's not loading.
and with following nameserver
Name Server:NS1.SUSPENDED-DOMAIN.COM
Name Server:NS2.SUSPENDED-DOMAIN.COM
 
Just reported another domain using .in domain for adult pics.
The whois record seems ok. The owner of the domain is from US.
I think this time, it will be deleted as the previous one.
