>
>
> The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has instituted
> Federal Court proceedings against domain name reseller Internet Name
> Protection Pty Ltd, trading as Internet Name Group, and its director, Mr
> Mark Spektor.
>
> The ACCC is seeking interlocutory and permanent injunctions, alleging
> misleading and deceptive conduct in relation to Internet Name Group's
> marketing of domain name services.
>
> The ACCC alleges that since approximately July 2000, Internet Name Group
> has made false or misleading representations regarding registration and
> renewal of Internet domain names. In particular, it is alleged that
> Internet Name Group has made and is continuing to make representations
> to various businesses to the effect that it:
>
> - had a pre-existing relationship or prior dealing with them;
>
> - has the authority to register or renew a consumer's domain name and
> can provide the services of registration or renewal;
>
> - could register ".com.au" domain names on the Internet for periods of
> four, six, eight, or 10 years and that registration for periods over two
> years would involve savings; and
>
> - has the sponsorship, approval, affiliation or authority that it does
> not have.
>
> Among other things, the ACCC is seeking to restrain Internet Name Group
> from continuing to represent that it is necessary for Internet Name
> Group to have access to a "registry key" before a registration of a
> domain name can be renewed.
>
> The ACCC will also be seeking orders including:
>
> - declarations that the conduct of Internet Name Protection breached
> relevant provisions of the Trade Practices Act 1974;
>
> - injunctions restraining Internet Name Protection from engaging in the
> same conduct in the future;
>
> - corrective advertising;
>
> - an order requiring Internet Name Protection and Mr Spektor to
> undertake a trade practices compliance program;
>
> - refunds; and
>
> - costs.
>
> The claim for interlocutory relief is listed to be heard in the Federal
> Court, Melbourne on 26 April 2002 at 10.15 a.m.
