How IP Addresses are Hijacked

To understand SORBS false claims, one needs to know how IP Addresses are hijacked.

  1. Example Company (example.com) with direct address assignment goes out of business
  2. Example.com domain expires
  3. Hijacker re-registers Example.com and pretends to be Example Company
  4. Hijacker uses example.com to impersonate Example Company
  5. Scheme is exposed when others realize that Example Company has gone out of business some time ago.
