Subject: [AfrICANN-discuss] Beware of scam: summer school on
Internetgovernance Africa

 

Hi all,

 

I would like to warn you about a very probable scam at
http://www.africanssig.org/first.htm.

 

The site copies the summer school on Internet governance in Latin
America and Europe that are real. It falsely claims that it is endorsed
by organizations like Internet Society and Google (amongst many others),
which it isn't. We have contacted many of the people sited on the front
page and in the program and none of them are aware of this program.

 

The Internet Society  will follow up this matter, but in the mean time I
would like to make sure that no one in the community falls into this
trap.

 

Please let me know if you have any information concerning this,
