dedicatedcentral.com abuse

mozilla/4.0 (compatible; msie 6.0; windows nt 5.1)
216.139.224.70 ip-d88be046.dedicatedcentral.com

The above bot fell right into the bot trap. And then tried to scan the other sites.

On the 15th falure it tried to submit a order for a giveaway I am running.
How strange its must be a spider with a human monitoring it.

Actual name and address removed but the address was in boston.
spam=[+city=Boston&+state=OK&+zip=02116&]

dedicatedcentral.com has no A record or website. So what is it?

The southwebventures.com website is blank.

Because of all the above and no clear ideal why this is (is it a isp it cant be with no website) the domain will be added as an abussive bot.

I believe I tracked down the information. It appears to be brand of http://www.serviceoverinternet.com/contactus/ check www.hostway.com's legal link. It'll explain what's most likely going on when you combine what you found occuring and their business model.

Sorry I dont really see any info on those links that explains the spidering and atempted submission into my contact and order forms.

Just looks like a hosting company.

They are still banned.

This is a funny one. I got a contact form submission from them and did some Googling to find that they must get around.

My contact form sent me a submission listing Larry Cooper (who now appears on directories all over the internet) with an email address of @hgc-corp.com -- email address varies by submission. The postal address too is all over the internet in random web directories. 198 Tremont Street, 506, Boston MA.

I don't know if that gives you any clues, but it is interesting!

"SouthWeb Ventures" appears on the whois record

The email claimed that Barny at myyearbook.com was my friend! I know him not.
