“In our effort to redress the injuries inflicted on us we came to appreciate how undeveloped this area of the law is, and how victims of domain theft face an unmarked and totally uphill battle to get a remedy. Today’s sentencing helps to define a path for other victims and law enforcers to follow, and reinforces the likelihood that the theft of a domain can and will be prosecuted.” (July 22, 2011; Sentencing of Goncalves to 5 years in prison for stealing domain name)

Custodians of Stolen Domain Name Sought to Gain Monies/Revenues from Stolen Property (ReligiousTravelAssociation.com)

As seen in previous blog posts, domain thieves sold the stolen domain name of the World Religious Travel Association (ReligiousTravelAssociation.com) in Feb-March 2010....this was 8 months prior to the domain name's natural expiration date.

The new custodians of the stolen domain name, which may have been the original domain thieves themselves, then parked the stolen domain name on Bodis.com, in order to gain potential monies/revenues from the stolen property.

The FBI and law enforcement can investigate the above including any potential monies earned via the stolen property/domain name.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR?

Below are 3 different images. The first image is a screenshot of Bodis.com, the service utilized in relation to parking the stolen domain name of the World Religious Travel Association.com.

The second and third images are records of the stolen domain name (ReligiousTravelAssociation.com) which show/confirm the nameserver as Bodis.com.
