Top barristers' set 39 Essex Street has had its domain name cybersquatted - and diverted to a porn site.
A solicitor looking to instruct a barrister at www.39essexstreet.co.uk will find all they wish to know about the chambers headed by Richard Wilmot-Smith Q.C.. Those typing in the same address but with .com at the end (DO NOT DO THIS AT WORK!) will be met by a website offering such delights as shemale personals, live webcams, MILFs and cheating wives. And the following image, which has been tastefully censored by RollOnFriday computer scientists.
A spokeswoman for the set sighed that she thought this had all been sorted and that she'd alert her IT department. She added that a foreign company was trying to get some cash out of them.
Tip Off ROF
