[Coco] bogus WhoIs complaint

[Aaron Wolfe]

I agree that the site looks a bit hokey, but it is legitimate.   I
used it myself some years ago on all my numbers and had no ill
effects.  I get a telemarketer maybe every 6 months between all 3
phone numbers and I'm not careful about giving them out, so perhaps it
even works.
