Domain Name Expiration Notice Scam Alert Mar 22

This came in the mail,  and looks official. Do you know who your registrar is?  Domain Registry of America sends out a letter of expiration, and wants you to TRANSFER from your current registrar to them. They make it sound like you will save money and retain the rights to your name.  THIS WILL COST YOU MORE!!! They have searched for expiring domain names and will fleece the uninformed.  I know to throw this out without a second thought.  But I thought what if  I was new to owning a domain, I could be fooled and I decided to post to the blog.  Did your webmaster order your name, then he or she will renew it and bill you-FIND OUT-I include this with my hosting fees for my clients.  If you ordered this yourself,  or got it as a deal with hosting here is the place to check:

Hosting Fall out! Dec 31

After problems with one of my hosting companies, all of my info for Probannerblitz was lost–reconstruction is only as easy as your last backup and type of backup.  I mofified alot of the PHP programming. No surprise that I removed all of my accounts from that host and will never do business with them again.  As I had to reconstruct all my programs again anyway it will not be on their server.

How to tell a bad host.

No support phone#

Phone number leads to a dead end voice mail.

Support phone number leads to a fax machine.

Support email cannot be sent directly, only through a web form that may be having problems.

Answered emails, do not address the problem and the response asks you to clarify your question or tells you it has nothing to do with their server.
