[44net] Registration request from Alekzandr Evans (KI7HOC)

Hi all, Just wanted to get some background info on this one. We got a subnet request from, who appeared to be KI7HOC located in Utah. He requested a /24 and wanted to route that through BGP by AS208173 (-- organisation: ORG-TYRA2-RIPE org-name: Jori Vanneste descr: Tyrasuki --) The ASN owner is located in Belgium and seems a bit shady to me looking through the subnets he's announcing (one IPv4 /24 from Africa and a few IPv6 subnets from APNIC, RIPE) and maintainers on the ASN (Singapore, Sweden, Switserland, ..) The email domain used, uses a whois hiding service and does not match Alekzandr's email address on QRZ. Emailing Alekzandr on his QRZ email address does not yield a respons, however returning the allocation request to the requestor almost immediatly prompts a return through the AMPR portal form. The details in the request: -- Name: Alekzandr Evans Email: ampr@alekeagle.com<mailto:ampr@alekeagle.com> Callsign: KI7HOC -- Note in the original request: "AE: The operator of the AS number posted above lives in Belgium. Though I'm not sure if this would justify a Belgian allocation, he recommended me to request a Belgian one." -- My question would be if anybody on the list knows Alekzandr and can speak to him if this request is legit or not. Has anyone else received a request from this callsign? Any input would be appreciated. We ended up denying the request as neither Alekzandr, nor that Jori are a holder of a valid ON ham license and Alekzandr did not respond to the question which ham services he would be hosting on this subnet (I asked that question because of my suspicions) and I haven't received any answer to my direct email to Alekzandr's qrz email address neither. 73, Ruben - ON3RVH
