David - Please report these events to: <https://www.arin.net/resources/fraud/index.html>: "This reporting process is to be used to notify ARIN of suspected Internet number resource abuse including the submission of falsified utilization or organization information, unauthorized changes to data in ARIN's WHOIS, hijacking of number resources in ARIN's database, or fraudulent transfers." We do investigate, and if we can determine falsified information was used to effect a transfer, we will revert the transfer and/or initiate resource review as appropriate. /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN
