Herbalife (HLF) Registers Three Ackman-Related Domain Names with GoDaddy.com

Herbalife (NYSE: HLF) is firing back against Bill Ackman and doing so in remarkable fashion.

According to the NY Post, Herbalife has bought the following domain names: "therealbillackman.com," “billackman.net,” and “therealackman.net." Data comes from GoDady's database of registrations. The move might be part of a broader social media campaign against Ackman, who unveiled "factsaboutherbalife.com" late in 2012 to try and persuade traders and investors that what Herbalife was nothing more than a pyramid scheme.

Shares of Herbalife are down about 1.4 percent Tuesday afternoon.
