Hello, my name is Joe Greco, I made a bad mistake registering the IP
addresses of dns1.sol.net, dns2.sol.net, dns4.sol.net, and dnsz.sol.net,
and I need you to change them to 216.218.130.2, 216.218.131.2,
216.218.132.2, and 216.218.132.2, respectively.  I have deposited $100
to you via PayPal to cover the sudden-change fee.


Now YOU tell ME what purpose an identity check serves.  ;-)
