Nobody has to guess the numbers because ARIN General Counsel Stephen M. Ryan is already on record, in the transcript of the TRO hearing, as having provided a number. The number... the value of what these crooks already got away with and what they already managed to "fence" to offshore buyers (in Saudi Arabia and China)... is, according to Ryan, "at least a $10 million fraud". (See page 11 of TRO hearing transcript.) >How many did ARIN decide not to reclaim because the recipients did not appear >to be part of the fraud?
