WTO "Discovers" Fake Site at gatt.org
by gatt-dot-org October 31 2001, Wed, 3:54pm
hehe, everytime there is a new wto meeting, the wto has to worry about people going to gatt.org ... wonderful. this is information warfare and the WTO is losing.

WTO NEWS: 2001 NEWS ITEMS
30 October 2001
Warning: fake WTO website

A fake WTO website — http://www.gatt.org/ — has been created to deceive Internet users by copying the entire official WTO website. While the design is identical, the texts have been distorted. The fake site also uses the email address enquiries@gatt.org

The use of WTO designs, logos and materials is strictly unauthorized. Worse, some pages on the fake website could cause unsuspecting visitors to reveal their email addresses and other information to the site’s operators. The fake site could also be picked up by search engines, a nuisance for serious users looking for genuine information.

The only official WTO site is http://www.wto.org/
