Now, I'm pretty sure that billing address is a fake. Wasn't it Beverly Hills 90210? It wasn't New York, at any rate.

Tracert to 2ee.us takes us to the IP address 69.50.163.166 on AS27595 INTERCAGE. Who they?

Meanwhile, the hotel spam is back, too, and it's still coming from sites around travel-host.net, which of course means this sorry lot:

That email address gives yet another address in the same place, and another domain name (domainsystems.com) which lives at the first address and gives @domainservice.com as a contact. They seem to be hosted on Rackspace.com, who are usually reasonable...
