Payday loans, identity theft, okehampton.net, register.com

A while back I failed to renew the Okehampton.Net domain name.  It was prompty snapped up by what looks to be a very dubious "financial" company - in a world where even the established and legitimate firms can't be entirely trusted this cannot be a good thing.    

I did try alerting Register.com who I'd registered the domain with, and the UK banking watchdog, but nothing happened.  So here's a blog post as a last, rather pathetic, attempt to warn anyone who might be daft enough to give okehampton.net "Payday loans" any personal information.  Don't - it would be a really silly thing to do.
