 It is amazing how both Google and NETWORK SOLUTIONS LLC refuse to take down Afarands site and its Pay Per Click advertisements when the arrest warrant has been issued and published online more than a year ago. Does anybody really care about the American Universities reputation anymore?

Afarand.net produces fake university degrees, claiming to originate from US universities and of course an arrest warrant was issued against its directors in Iran as a result.



The following data is produced in response to the Afarand's funny rebuttal claiming that its Iranian agent(s) was at fault ! deducing safely that Afarands Iran branch was registered and existed long before its nonexistent US branch will come to life sometimes within the next few months; that is after  Afarands directors read this report!
