See the new www.swhu.info site for information on this
site's domain hijacking history. It is still going on
today - IFCC complaints have now been filed against them.
They are thoroughly disreputable. Search on "SWHU" on this site
for more customer complaints - see the above site for more
customer stories.

I'm also a former customer of s-w-h-u and recommend that people visit s-w-h-u.info and hostingtycoon.us for more information on Dennis Steyfa and his former company s-w-h-u.com and his new company hostingtycoon.com. The man is a fraud, beware of him and his companies.

Well, Steyfa today tried to change the WHOIS information to make it look like it was someone else owned the H.ostingTycoon.com.

Only a COUPLE of problems - he said this person who now "owns" the website: "Julian Gregory" has the same Admin Contact ID as Dennis: DENNHERAT2... Dennis' hotmail account is herat200@hotmail...Also, he says the guy lives in the "city of Florida". Bad enough, but the ZIP is for Kansas! One of our Watch Steyfa group is handing the info over to a WHOIS admin friend of his.

We never said he was bright. Just criminal.

Hi chana, that member of the group would be me. ;-) I just want to post here the info for people trying to get their domains back.

If your domain has been hijacked, contact Matt Stearn at enom. Provide him with proof such as the initial confirmation e-mail from when you signed up, or a credit card receipt, and he will re-register the domain under your name. That's what he did for me.
