John another question, probably I am going to open another question, I need to find a good and cheap IT insurance for my new IT company. any recommendation before I get scammed ?
I use Smart Whois (Tamosoft) and that is how I found out. Any web-based whois lookup will find this information.
Every once in a while, I see this from acquaintances but I delete them on sight.

ok, but what did you type ? the link I gave you ?
ASKER
what is the website for smart whois please?
What do you mean by Insurance. I have not heard of regular insurance for this,
I use Mail.com (1 and 1 .com) and their spam control is excellent. I pay the annual premium fee and have my email forwarded to my email ISP here locally.

I copied the link above into Smart Whois which accepted the domain and gave me the information I gave you.
If you want web based Whois, use https://www.whois.net/

Also, I never open such links. Rule 1: Do not open dodgy links.
The last virus I got was in 1994 on a Windows 3.1 machine and it was inadvertently delivered to me that way by my IT vendor back then . They gave me a free antivirus suite which eliminated the problem. First and last virus.

Smart Whois is paid but inexpensive software.
they require me as a company to have an liability insurance
That is a really different question. Talk to local insurance brokers (2 or 3 and select the one that makes sense).
