Could be, I have never heard of them before, strange pricing, lots of question marks!!!!!! Probably got to add VAT, but even then some of their prices are keen. Try the phone number

When you "just" look them up in "whois", they seem legitimate enough. The record shows:
Domain Name: FIRSTCAMERAS.NET Registrar: MONIKER Registrant [3527047]: George Hatfield 13 Frensham Road Norwich England NR3 2BT UK Administrative Contact [3527047]: George Hatfield 13 Frensham Road Norwich England NR3 2BT UK Phone: +44.07563715213 Billing Contact [3527047]: George Hatfield 13 Frensham Road Norwich England NR3 2BT UK Phone: +44.07563715213 Technical Contact [3527047]: George Hatfield 13 Frensham Road Norwich England NR3 2BT UK Phone: +44.07563715213 Domain servers in listed order: NS1.FIRSTCAMERAS.NET 85.112.126.90 NS2.FIRSTCAMERAS.NET 85.112.126.90 Record created on: 2011-01-20 06:49:36.0 Database last updated on: 2011-02-02 08:32:52.52 Domain Expires on: 2012-01-20 06:49:37.0 But when you then look up the IP address, another story turns up: inetnum: 85.112.126.0 - 85.112.126.255 netname: colocat-net descr: Colocat.ru network country: RU admin-c: IHOM-RIPE tech-c: IHOM-RIPE status: ASSIGNED PA mnt-by: IHOME-MNT remarks: ---------------------------------------- remarks: Report spam and abuse: remarks: ---------------------------------------- source: RIPE # Filtered role: iHome NOC address: iHome Ltd. address: 1A Semenovskaya pl. address: 107023, Moscow, Russia e-mail: admin-c: VMA-RIPE tech-c: VMA-RIPE tech-c: IVL-RIPE nic-hdl: IHOM-RIPE source: RIPE # Filtered mnt-by: IHOME-MNT route: 85.112.112.0/20 descr: Networks to connect Internet via iHome JSC origin: AS25478 mnt-by: IHOME-MNT source: RIPE # Filtered Conclusion: Don't just use whois to check the domain name. Use the IP address to be sure, where the server is located. :-) |
