Important Tax Information

We are in the process of updating our Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification records. In order to file an information return with the IRS, we must obtain your correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) to report income paid to you. Please ensure that you have a W-9 or W-8 form on file with us in order to ensure timely payment. Once signed, please mail or fax the completed form to:

Attn: Accounting Department
Various, Inc.
220 Humboldt Court
Sunnyvale, CA 94089
United States
Fax: 1(408) 744-9374

************************************************** ************

FACT: US sponsors are NOT required by law to get signed w8 forms from non-US webmasters.

So my question is, why the fuck are they requesting this ?

Did you get this message too ?
