Domain hijacking

ADVERTISEMENTS
Safeguarding your domain name and related intellectual property should be a high priority for your business. Unscrupulous opportunists troll the internet looking for businesses, both well known and not, checking for unregistered misspellings, similar domain names, or expired registrations. There are many scams. One example that comes to mind is the Woolworths-owned Dick Smith Electronics. Its main website is dse.com.au. However it was discovered in 2007 that another version of their business name had not been registered by the company, and had been turned into a pornography portal. To avoid such problems make timely decisions about domain names and IP protection.
