The premium three letter domain ADE.com has been reported as stolen.
ADE.com changed hands sometime in January, leaving the control of its lawful owners, KLA Tencor corporation.
The company has been made aware of the domain’s status as a stolen domain asset.
KLA Tencor acquired ADE.com in October 2006, by acquiring ADE Corporation. Since then, ADE.com has been pointing to the KLA Tencor web site.
Premium domain broker, James Booth, let us know that he was approached to acquire the domain by its current holder, a Dutch individual.
It is not yet clear whether the current owner is responsible for this domain theft. WHOIS records indicate that the domain ADE.com changed ownership on January 18th, 2016.
If you are approached to acquire the domain ADE.com note that it is currently stolen. We will update this post when it’s returned to its lawful owners, KLA Tencor.
As a reminder, AQM.com is also a stolen domain.

Mike – Usually large corporations don’t keep track of such assets efficiently. Not the first time a forwarding domain gets stolen.
