		<description><![CDATA[The current argument over the Snapnames rebate seems to be that there is more than meets the eye in the recent Nelson &#8220;Halvarez&#8221; Brady scandal. Both victims and non-victims of the &#8220;Hank Alvarez&#8221; scam, which materialized while he was a VP of Engineering at Snapnames, seem to want a lot more beyond transparency from Oversee [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that the Snapnames auction history data is available as far back as 2004, the next question is: Did Nelson &#8220;halvarez&#8221; Brady act alone, both in the bidding alias sense and in the real wold sense? In other words, was &#8220;halvarez&#8221; the only Snapnames account used to jack up prices in auctions &#8211; and did [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Acting under pressure from domain blogs, posts in forums and angry emails and phonecalls to support, Snapnames has re-instated access to the full domain auction history per account &#8211; going all the way back to 2004. So it&#8217;s time to compare notes. After analyzing the data, Nelson &#8220;halvarez&#8221; Brady appears in 73% of all auctions [...]]]></description>

In the case of the on-going &#8220;halvarez&#8221; scandal, it&#8217;s a bittersweet reference to an overall failure to proactively identify the fraudulent activity of a former VP of Snapnames. Yesterday, like many other holders of Snapnames accounts I received an [...]]]></description>

Oversee is currently rushing to wrap up the Snapnames shill bidding scandal in a manner that does not instill confidence. The forensics company that [...]]]></description>

When Oversee announced today that a former employee of Snapnames was defrauding thousands of customers via means of shill bidding at domain auctions, they promised that the ongoing investigation would end with issuing refunds plus interest. There is no doubt that Oversee is striving to clear the Augean stables that the [...]]]></description>
