Murray Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Please investigate and suspend the following fraudulent domain: queenslondonhotel.com URL: http://queenslondonhotel.com/index.html This domain is hosted on your servers. Summary: This site is being used to conduct 419 Internet Advanced Fee Fraud by impersonating a non-existent hotel. Under this common 419 Fraud ruse (commonly targeting victims from developing countries), fake non-profit organizations offer round trip air transportation to email recipients to attend non-existent international conferences. Email recipients are then asked pay hotel registration fees in advance by money order or bank wire transfer. After fees are paid, the promised round trip airline tickets are never provided. A description of this scam can be found here: http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=18787 Reasons why queenslondonhotel.com is fraudulent: 1. The fake Queens London Hotel is not listed in the United Kingdom's Companies House registry of authorized businesses (http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/adeece23d9538e876368822cba8b5aaf/wcframe?name=accessCompanyInfo). This is evidence of fraud. 2. The fake Queens London Hotel web pages have illegally copied symbols, logos, format, and web page format and content of the legitimate Washington Mayfair Hotel (real site here: http://www.washington-mayfair.co.uk/) - http://www.copyscape.com/view.php?o=76202&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washington-mayfair.co.uk%2F&t=1325140420&s=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.queenslondonhotel.com&w=145&i=1&r=10 3. The fraudulent domain's contact web page ( http://queenslondonhotel.com/index.html ) lists the following as its address: 124 Kentish Town Road, London, NW1 9QB United Kingdom. The Abbey Tavern and not the Queens London Hotel is located at this address: http://www.londonnet.co.uk/clubs/venues/theabbeytavern.html This is evidence of fraud. 4. The fraudulent domain's contact web page ( http://queenslondonhotel.com/contact_us.html ) lists the following telephone numbers: +44(0)702 401 9540 and +44(0)702 405 1744 as a main contact telephone numbers. This telephone numbers resolve to be personal (non-business) telephone number ( http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=phonenr ). A legitimate hotel hosting an international conference would not use personal telephone numbers as main contact telephone numbers. This is an indication of fraud. 5. The fake Queens London Hotel website has a one year domain registration was very recent (05 December 2011). An established hotel in London would likely be more than four days old. This is an indication of fraud. 6. This website is listed in the Artists Against 419's database of fraudulent websites: http://db.aa419.org/fakebanksview.php?key=64681 If you need additional information to suspend this fraudulent domain, please contact me. Thank you. Murray
