Seems fishy to me.

Subject: Re: [arin-discuss] Offer to buy IP space
I just received a similar offer, It must be some hoax as they are
trying to get IP space I have assigned to customers already. Also
strange is they are looking at a /24 in the middle of one of my /15
CIDR's, so needless to say we would not sell it if we could.

I recently received an offer to buy an IP block from our
organization. Needless to say, I have absolutely no interest in
this. Does ARIN care about things like this? Should I report it, or
should I just ignore it?

<pre wrap="">at my day job we just received two of these, both forwarded to ARIN's
