Here's a new one that I have not seen before: http://www.kwikdegrees.com It came up on Googleads on my website, and I quickly killed it via a handy little filter that they provide. A whois yields the following info: Registrant: Navarama Inc Ste 433 2550 E Desert Inn Road Las Vegas, Nevada 89121 US Domain name: KWIKDEGREES.COM Administrative Contact: Manager, IT [email protected] Ste 433 2550 E Desert Inn Road Las Vegas, Nevada 89121 US +1.5555555555 Technical Contact: Technical, Host Europe [email protected] Portland Street Beeston Nottingham, Nottinghamshire NG9 2LP UK +44.1159170000 Fax: +44.1158770213 Registration Service Provider: Host Europe PLC, [email protected] +44 115 917 0000 http://www.hosteurope.com/ This company may be contacted for domain login/passwords, DNS/Nameserver changes, and general domain support questions.

Domain servers in listed order: NS1.ITEMONLINE.CO.UK NS2.ITEMONLINE.CO.UK It appears to be run by something called Navarama - http://www.navarama.com which provides the following information only: Navarama Inc. UNITED STATES Suite 433, 2550 E Desert Inn Road Las Vegas, NV89121 UNITED KINGDOM Suite 503, 77 Beak Street London W1F 9DB A 'whois' on the above is not yielding much information. Degree granting authority, owners? As usual, little info to go by. Cheers, George
that would be UPS Store #1271 2550 E Desert Inn Road, Las Vegas, Nevada 89121 is UPS Store #1271. I imagine it is rather dark and cramped inside "Suite 433." G
As previously discussed here, Navarama, Inc. also develops porn sites (Adult Focus) and runs a porn search engine (XXX WebFinder). They sell degrees without telling you the name of the school awarding the diploma, and claim that the World Distance Learning Council, an apparently non-existent accreditor, accredits all of their schools.
