Hello Przemyslaw,
We take online security and domain management seriously. GNAME operates as a domain registrar and service provider, and like all registrars, we must comply with industry regulations, including WHOIS privacy laws. However, we do not condone or support malicious activities.
If you have encountered a fraudulent domain, we strongly encourage you to report it through our official abuse reporting channel at www.gname.com/abuse. Our team investigates such cases promptly and takes appropriate action, including domain suspension if necessary.
We appreciate your vigilance and are here to assist in addressing any concerns.

This company registered many domains for the recent Myanmar-based fraud ring. The crimes probably started in 2022. They are still ongoing. There are about 400 of them. Most of these domains were registered by Gname. I was able to check with just my smartphone. I warned Gname many times but they didn't stop. I was instructed by Gname to enter the domains one by one into the complaint form and provide evidence. Perhaps Gname knew about these crimes. Gname prioritized its own interests.
--Update--
I sent an email to complaint and got a reply from Gname telling me to fill out their abuse form. The email clearly stated that reporting abuse via email would not be accepted.I have to enter each of these scam domains one by one and provide evidence. This is a good way to stop victims from reporting the abuse.
Gname also had several mechanisms in place to make it easier for criminals to register fraudulent domains.
1. Domain owners are free to change the country in which their domain is registered.
2. Domain registrants can pay fees to Gname in cryptocurrencies.
These things may be advantageous for registering fraudulent domains, but they are an unnecessary system for registering legitimate domains.
Gname uses customer IDs to manage customer information. So why couldn't they manage a customer who had registered about 400 fraudulent domains?
What is the Gname Abuse Form for? Is it just to put abusive domains on domain hold?

Hello saco,
Thank you for sharing your concerns. We take allegations of fraudulent activity very seriously and appreciate your vigilance in identifying potential misuse of domain registrations.
As a domain registrar, Gname adheres to industry regulations and policies to prevent abuse. While we strive to maintain a secure and transparent platform, registrars do not have direct control over how domains are used after registration. However, we actively investigate complaints and take action when violations are confirmed.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused during the reporting process and appreciate your efforts in bringing this to our attention. If you have additional evidence or require assistance, please reach out to our support team at [email protected] so we can further investigate and take appropriate action.
Your feedback is valuable, and we remain committed to maintaining a responsible and compliant domain registration environment.

Gname supports scammers!
They are registering fraudulent sites for brands that do not exist no questions asked and when we are filing a complaint the process is well respected, requesting all bunch of papers (trademark/copyright certificate and declaration/power of attorney...).

Hello Dimotar,
We understand your concerns and appreciate your feedback. As a domain registrar, GNAME operates in compliance with industry regulations and cannot pre-screen domain registrations. However, we take reports of fraudulent websites seriously and follow a structured process to investigate and take appropriate action when necessary.
To ensure that complaints are handled fairly and legally, we require relevant documentation such as trademark or copyright certificates. This is a standard practice among registrars to prevent misuse and unauthorized takedowns. If you need assistance with the process, please reach out to our abuse team at www.gname.com/abuse, and we will be happy to guide you through the necessary steps.
We remain committed to addressing abuse reports in accordance with our policies and applicable laws.

GNAME hosts multiple abusive, scam, and phishing websites. I personally believe that the process for reporting an abusive website is intentionally inconvenient, as their business relies heavily on these fake websites registered by scammers. When submitting an abuse report via email, you typically receive a response within two days instructing you to submit your complaint through their website URL. Once there, you need a code that is sent to your email, which can take several hours to arrive.
Overall, this company should be shut down for its poor ethical practices in the industry.

scalework dot site; who changed address after 4 months to scalework dot online the second week of January '24.
They seem to be working a
'pull the rug' after tempting w/ $ for a fake job as they try and get a couple grand out of you settling for less and less and prommising to 'make you right'. Offering to pay 70% of a 1500 fee. That would still take me from 800 to 1200 ripped off. They sure want 1 more payment. It's funny and sad.

Hi Lori,
Thank you for sharing your experience and for taking the time to alert us to this situation. We take reports of potential fraudulent activities very seriously. It’s good that you were cautious and researched further before proceeding with the offer.
Please note that GNAME is a legitimate domain-related service provider, but unfortunately, scammers sometimes misuse names of reputable companies or services in their schemes. Regarding the company you mentioned (Coindesk), we can confirm that GNAME has no affiliation with them, nor do we offer any data input job positions.
Here are a few precautions you can take in similar situations:
Verify the official website and contact information of any company reaching out to you.
Be wary of unsolicited job offers, especially those involving unusual payment methods or requiring sensitive personal information upfront.
If in doubt, contact the company directly through verified channels to confirm the legitimacy of the offer.
Thank you again for your vigilance, and we hope this helps. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have further concerns.

Scammers are impersonating our website and brand, we opened a complaint on gname.com, provided evidence and supplementary evidence as was requested. But since then we have not heard anything and the complaint is still open without any response or resolution.

Let’s get our stolen money back !!! My friend has been defrauded my a company operating on a site being hosted by GNAME. Despite a complaint about a financial scam, the site hasn’t been taken down
If you have been scammed or contacted by a company operating a site that looks like bitopdyor .com or geminicixk .com and complained to Gname - please send me an email at m @ businessventure .com - if Gname has not responded to your warnings and kept these sites up, I would imagine that there is a possibility that a class action lawsuit could be taken against them. I understand that they are only a registrar/host and have no involvement in any scams that are run from their domains or namespaces, but if they are not taking appropriate action to take these sites down when warned, then they could be indirectly responsible for people’s losses. This is what I want to find out. If they have acted incompetently, there may be a case for action. So if you have been defrauded by either of the domain names above or any others with sites that look like the sites on these domains or very similar AND complained to Gname and the site is still up, please email me asap and let’s see what we can do together to ensure nobody else is defrauded and hopefully recover some of not all of our money from Gname. Thank You - please put “scam” in the subject line of your email

Hello Mr. Goldblatt,
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. At GNAME, we take trademark disputes and domain ownership issues seriously and are committed to acting in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
As a registrar, we are unable to determine or adjudicate ownership disputes over domain names. However, if you are the trademark holder and believe that your rights have been infringed, we recommend taking the following steps:
1. Submit a Formal Complaint: Please file a formal complaint with our abuse team at [email protected], providing detailed evidence of your trademark ownership and any relevant documentation, such as registration certificates and a copy of your cease and desist letter.
2. Follow ICANN’s Dispute Resolution Process: For trademark-related domain disputes, ICANN offers a Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP). This process is designed to resolve such matters impartially. You can learn more about filing a complaint under UDRP on ICANN's official website.
3. Contact Legal Authorities: If necessary, legal action can be taken through the appropriate courts to enforce trademark rights. Upon receiving a valid court order, we will comply with the decision.
We are here to assist within the scope of our responsibilities as a registrar. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our team for further clarification or support regarding this matter.

I tried for the first time to contact Gname's official complaints office. But even though I am the injured party from whom the website was copied, I must provide proof that I am the legal owner. I did that, but GNAME doesn't agree with it because OUR BRAND was registered in GERMANY and accordingly the legal documents for the protected word mark are in German and they can't read that. OUR website was copied, OUR images were stolen, OUR texts, intellectual property was stolen. The fraudulent website kostuempalast-de.com doesn't even have an imprint, there is no name of anyone responsible for this website, this website only wants to cheat and GNAME fully supports this because they do NOT want to DELETE this website! You no longer have to tell me that you are sorry or that I should send you further documents. You will have to answer some questions.
