[arin-ppml] How bad is it really?

[Owen DeLong]

In cases where you know this is happening I strongly urge you to pass the information to the ARIN fraud reporting
process so that ARIN can work with the provider(s) in question to get the issue resolved.

Thank you,

Owen DeLong

One we have not used since early 2001 the other since late 2004. I did some tests and one of them still routes to the last hop before it hit us.

I don’t know how long he has not had the IP space but it’s been at least 3 years and more likely closer to or over 4 years. Still pointing to him (and his company no longer even exists) and still routing to the last hop before him.
