Anyone Shed A Little Insight On This.........
Hope you are all having a great weekend!
Ok, I need a little info and advice from you guys!
One of my offline clients contacted me today via email asking if an email they had recieved was a scam!
Now I don't want to post the email here but the email was basically an IMPORTANT NOTICE from what looked like a domain registration company.
The Subject Line:
Domain Notification: (My Clients Name) This is your Final Notice of Domain Notification
Now the email basically read out that the domain name in question needs registering to avoid any problems with customers finding you on the web. It was obviously a scare tactic and they were charging:
$75 for 1 year Registration!
The email was sent from a donotreply@ email address. I have URL'd the email domain and it has brought up one of those information.com type of pages.
Now this looks like a company searching the web and scaring people into buying domains at a high price. Has anyone else recieved one of these or has any offliners recieved one of these for clients in the past?
I have never had an email and its the first I have heard about it!
Any info?
