My UK website has been "cloned" by a Russian scammer who has registered a very similar sounding domain name to my own, and is using it to phish for people's credit card details. They claim to charge them a small amount of money via a fake credit card form, but in reality steal their card details.
I have had little success with the Russian hosting company, they are not subject to DMCA... There are two issues here: copyright (they've stolen our website and branding literally without even bothering to change it) and secondly they're operating an illegal scam by stealing credit card details.
I reported this to Nominet yesterday via the dispute system, as it's on a .co.uk domain that they're doing this, but will they bother to act?
