Our exclusive coverage of the brazen theft and subsequent recovery of ShadesDaddy.com has a pleasant follow-up.
Pablo Palatnik, founder of ShadesDaddy, promised to return and has published an article that was picked up by Forbes.
In this three-pager, Palatnik offers advice on how to proceed, if your domain has been hijacked.
The key points that Palatnik identifies as important, are:
- Understanding the role of the company that operates the domain hierarchy
- Alerting the domain Registrar immediately
- Hiring an attorney
- Speed up the process by filing a motion at court
- Go public about the incident
Mr. Palatnik also notified the FBI, which collected information about the incident, potentially using that in the future to identify other related crimes by the Chinese cybercriminals.
