WhoisMind.com- Internet Scams Against Website Owners
WhoisMind.com is located in Minsk (Bulgaria). They of course feel that the FBI has no jurisdiction here in Minsk (Bulgaria). I told them.” Have you ever heard of International Trade Agreements…its between the United States Government and other countries, your web sites can be removed from the United States Internet Server”…
A company called ICANN which is a legal company, that updates websites on line, the whoismind.com takes that information and post your email address, and they demand money for them to remove their post.
ICANN notified me by email that these people are not affiliated with them….now what happens when you send you credit card information to.. Russia..
