Yep not fair to bring Sedo into this, they can't be expected to investigate the history of all names that people post on their site. It just isn't economically viable.
As for are they all under the same umbrella, Volvo are under the same umbrella as Ford. So When my Volvo breaks down I can't go banging down the door of Ford.
If he was making money out of this site through donations. Just get him to install the website on a different domain. His needs and disabilities will be the same and surely people will still donate if they were doing so before.
Unfortunately some individual has seen an opportunity and took advantage. It happens in every walk of life. The fact that your friend was a software consultant probably means that he has in his life been charging an extortionate rate for his services. Taking advantage of a commercial situation and the lack of software consultants to charge a high market value rate, as you say "Top Notch" and likely got a "Top Notch Rate" from people that were in need, possibly a small business and someone trying to feed his family. Or he might have been working for a big company, one where elderly people's pension funds are shareholders. I'm not wishing to judge all I am saying is that non of us are innocent in the world of capitalism.
Sounds harsh, but life is life
