Did the GVH site just get ripped by 'GreenValueNetworks'?

I saw it somewhere this morning.  Domain is a day old and an obvious rip - look at the source before clicking shit or use a QA box.  There may be crap in there somewhere.

Maybe the old support guys are back with a vengeance ..or did I miss something since last night? :)

Uhm, damn near everyone up until a month ago, so don't give me that "who cares" crap.  Past threads show differently. You know as well as I do that people cared about it for a long-ass time.

The about us is humorous:

His responsibilities embrace general oversight of company finances, native advertising affairs, and strategic visionary designing. though he doesn't participate within the regular operations of GreenValueNetworks.com, Lance is always lurking and might be contacted simply whenever there's a tangle that needs his attention. His confidence and assurance is contagious to the corporate and he is galvanized our employees to not solely pride oneself in their work, however additionally to stay their heads held high and appearance forward to every and each day of serving to customers establish their on-line presence.

Well you have to give them some credit for taking the time to setup their own google analytics account and changing Lance to Mohamed and Illinois to Sri Lanka on the ripped template

Based on that... you can pretty much assume that they are in a position to give GVH a run for their money. 

It is no shock that they are also using a nulled copy of WHMCS (reported)

Domain was probably owned by the real (pffft) GVH owner, whoever the hell it was, at some point or another, expired, and someone in Mumbai picked it up either at auction or right after the registrar released it.  Would have to see the whois history.  Either way seems like somebody's out for blood, or unknowingly picked the worst brand possible to mimic.

I never understood that either. Cracks me up when a skid uses a defacer to promote their BS little factions or whatever, and their little club website has cloudflare NS...

# dig $domain any 

... oh lookie, an MX record.  Another reason I never fully trusted them....

I care because I hate content theft folks.

This is even bad in GVH land this level of bullshit theft.

Mohamed Anwar or whatever fool is behind that should watch.   I guarantee that site is coming down.  Better go hide behind CF while you can bozo.

So someone registered this yesterday... someone hiding behind CF....  Doubt it's the token Indian in photo - well I'd hope not.. But considering the track record of some Indians we've seen in these parts, nothing surprises me.

A little off-topic, but an interesting theory as it relates to the old WHT post.... someone once told me years ago that in this industry, when a provider is doing perfectly fine selling their initial product line at a reasonable price, that launching even more of a "budget" service/sister service is really an indication that the provider is likely in financial trouble and trying to recoup their losses with the introduction of a "budget" line that anyone can afford.  I've never really come up with an answer to that question, even thinking about if from both sides, but I'm leaning more towards the "not entirely true" opinion on this.

My credit goes to those providers comforably offering affordable/smaller VPS packages from day one, are still going strong, yet can keep out the skids and resource-hoggers that can often accompany such a service (@KuJoe comes to mind).  Starting small and getting big over time -- that makes sense.  Starting big and suddenly going small... well, just doesn't seem quite as "aligned" to me, and it's always prevented me from using some of my owned hardware to launch a line of "if you don't know me very well, test the waters if you'd like, with a $10/yr 512MB or $20/yr 1GB package first" sort of thing.  I'm also old school, in that I don't believe in getting greedy by launching a product line that I'm not as familiar with when I'm busy enough now.  If for some reason I was unable to manage it along with my existing line, becoming part of the problem, to me, is akin to taking food from his kid's plate, and I just don't roll that way.

Anyone else have an opinion about this?  Agree?  No?

I think he's under the impression that he's well protected, but a few simple queries show otherwise.  If he's not smart enough to steal, he sure as shit can't wall himself out completely.  If he does, I'm sure somebody will be able to sniff him out. ;)

So I haven't figured out which usual suspect is behind this stunt yet.
 
But, someone is picking up domains that are expired.  That's clear from the greenvaluenetworks domain they snagged yesterday.
 
Big deal? right?   So who is doing what? oh here's a start :)

Web0host, use to be a host.  But it went sketch recently.

Someone picked it up 12-19-2014.

Then they ran over here and probably other places pretending to be said company - well in name:

Web0host though isn't online.  When you go to their site you get:

Same message.  Same box I'll bet.  Same jabroni.

Honestly I'm not surprised at all.

GVH, as much as we hate it, has a pretty good "presence" marketing wise.  However their delivery was absolute crap.  I am not surprised someone tried to ride on the coat tails of their recent buyout and try and cash in on their online presence.

This guy's a cheapshot.
