Three Letter Domain Thief Loses Domain Name

A company called "Site Service International" has lost a domain name arbitration case for the domain AHI.com. According to the complainant AHI Invest GmbH of Vienna, Austria, the domain name was stolen from it.

This is not the first time Site Service International has lost a case for a 3-letter domain name that was allegedly stolen. Since 2007, it has lost a half dozen cases involving three character domain names. In each case, the details are similar: the complainant owned a three letter domain name that suddenly changed ownership and was transferred to a new registrar. The company has lost cases for rcw.com, jai.com, vou.com, wsw.com, and ocf.com.

These are not the only instances of domain name theft. The historical WHOIS profile for NLF.com shows Site Service International used to own it, and it followed the same registrar patterns as the other domains. It was recently transferred to a new registrant.

The Dallas address in whois for Site Service International appears to be an invalid address.

The plot thickens.
