Received domain renewal spam by snail mail
 
Received three letters at home today from a company offering to renew 3 of my domains that will expire in 4-5 months. Aparently they've evolved from email to snail mail...

WTF is next? :321GFY

They've done this forever. Apparently Network Solutions will sell their customer database for like $5,000 now.
I get them all the time.

I get those... registryUSA or something like that?... I called and asked why they were sending those to me... Told them that I was happy with my registrar and would not be changing and to take me off their list.

Yea, snail mail spam is worse than email spam... at least with email you can just delete... with snail mail, you have to toss away in the trash... and it is a waste of paper. A tree died for nothing. :2 cents:

They call themselves 'Domain Registry of America', but the letters came from London, England. :1orglaugh

I get those constantly. It's nice how they make it look like a bill. It's nothing more than a big scam. I wonder how many clueless domain owners send them a check.

I absolutely hate getting those letters!
