Fake female members

[Whois-Search]

At the moment there seems to be a number of fake female members who are being used as mules by much larger dropcatching cartels.

The Register already exposed the Eastern European tags ending in ‘ova’ or ‘eva’:

For anyone who doesn’t know:

In Czech and other Slavic languages, the suffix "ova" is added to the last names of all females. It's an ending long-ingrained in the vernacular that quite literally means "belonging to" the male, as in belonging to a woman's father or husband. (In English, "ova" is plural for "ovum," a female egg cell.)

However those members still seem active...

20489047 Antoniya Pavlova 1752
20495541 Tatyana Karataneva 1752
20495041 Simeon Chakalov 1752
20498542 Maria Dobcheva 1752
20498292 Ivelina Georgieva 1752
20493291 Severina Paneva 1752
20500292 Hristina Kostova 1752

Now there are English female members appearing on catches (these are recent SEO or link building names that dropped a week late):

ofoc.co.uk JNEWSAM
tradewinds.co.uk LTHORNLEY
avocet.co.uk SAVOIE

These female members are obviously being used by other dropcatcher cartels.

If you look in the backgrounds of these woman on social media they don’t even work in IT !

Jayne Newsam [TAG = JNEWSAM]
Lisa Thornley [TAG = LTHORNLEY]
Rachelle Savoie [TAG = SAVOIE]

When is Nominet going to put a stop to this exploitation amongst its own membership ?

Please correct me if I'm wrong but are you maybe jumping to a lot of conclusions there. How do you know you've found the right people on social media? How do you know they don't work in IT or have gone into a deal with someone that works in IT?

It appears you may be just guessing on one of the above, or both.

If you came across my profile on Facebook for example, you would have no clue I work with domains. It's not in my profile, I don't link to domain industry news etc.

Also how did these women all know about the same set of SEO drops that dropped 7 days late:

There's tons of profiles for these people. Hard to pinpoint who it would be. Also, I'm almost 100% sure it's not their real name.

You ask for the members register from Nominet under Section 116 Companies Act

The Lisa person was trying to sell loads of server/IT stuff in March on her Facebook.

Don't get me wrong. It's all 100% fishy, I was just pulling you up assumptions you were making. You mention their profiles show they don't work in IT but then on one of them, there are servers being sold. Doubt they are hers, but still.

My opinion/guess, is young males working together using their female partners/friends identities to get more tags.

You still are 100% assuming and guessing though. There are people with the same name, living in the same towns and not everyone has a profile open etc.

On the note of assumptions, how did you link Rachelle Savoie to the Linkedin Profile of the same name. Was it by address?

Nothing on her profile links her to a UK address or working in the UK. Wondering if you linked it to 'Lincoln Community School' - When that is actually 'Lincoln' in another country.

There seems to be an Abu Dhabi link at least between Jayne Newsam and Rachelle

They both worked in education in Abu Dhabi

Yes, I did see that. How did you link her name to that Linkedin profile though without an address? I'm not seeing how that was possible so any other links are mere coincidence at this stage.

Have a look at the Register of Members at Nominet

I can’t give you their address on here.

I don't like this. Conspiracy theories might be too strong but certainly, speculation seems a fair description. I don't see any purpose being served by posting it here and speculation when wrong is damaging to innocent parties. Take it up with Nominet.
