Spammers & hackers : Using the RIPE Whois Database to find their network | Spam | Hacking
How can the RIPE NCC help?
The RIPE NCC is the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) for Europe, the Middle East and parts of Central Asia. The RIPE Whois Database holds details of IP address registrations within this region. You are welcome to use this database to track down the source of the network abuse and find contact details of the relevant network administrators.
See: Using the RIPE Whois Database to find the spammer/hacker's network
The RIPE Whois Database is a public database that contains registration details allocated and assigned in the RIPE NCC service region. IP network operators in our service region enter and maintain the data. We aid operation of the database, but are not responsible for its contents. It is not within the scope of activities set by our membership to check data in the RIPE Whois Database for accuracy. Only the maintainers of objects in the database may make changes to data.
