Domain name spam

DirtyJumbo · 08-21-2006, 08:47 AM

I received a snail mail (guess they never heard of email) from Domain Registry Of America today which looks like an invoice telling me to renew one of my domains for the bargain price of €25/$30. I never registered any domain through them so don't be fooled by these scammers/spammers..

yeah, I get letters from these fucks all the time.

They were prosecuted in Australia I believe. They aren't even registrars either, let alone a registry. The whole thing is set up as a fraud, and if ICANN had any sense they would bar them from registering any names.

i get them through the door every now and then
so one day i gave them a short and strieght to the point e-mail
and it seemed to work wonders

I've reported them to the UK trading standards authority a few times. If everybody did that (or your national equivalent), then we might be able to get rid of them.

I've had about a dozen over the past year as names come close to renewal.
