Another Domain Registration Scam
If you receive an email like this I suggest you do one of two things:
1) You can report the message as spam to www.spamcop.net. They can trace who sent it and often get the accounts that are used closed.
2) You can ignore the message and then register the domain they mention at your registrar of choice for the normal fee. If you register the domain with the scammer, you will have to FAX them the information because they are a spammer and they are charging you about 10 TIMES the normal free of $8. Yes, if you register with them for one year it will cost you $75! That's almost what it would cost you to register the domain for 10 years at most honest registrars.
I just checked at www.domaintools.com and the domain they are telling me about is not registered, so I can register it at Domainsite.com, Namecheap.com, Name.com, or anyplace I want to.
Aside from the massive overcharging of fees, you also have to wonder who the hell these people are and why they have to hide what they do? Well, I think that is pretty clear. They are spammers and they may also be scammers as well, so you risk paying the money and getting NOTHING in return.
We advise that you NEVER use products or services that are advertised in spam or unsolicited commercial email (UCE). If someone contacts you with a personal message, that's not so bad, but anything like this is spam and should be reported.

Please be advised that the above noted domain name has now become available for registration.
Consequently the possibility of a conflicting domain registration may occur.
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UNITED STATES LEGAL CODE
TITLE 15, Sec 1125. False descriptions, and dilution of Trademarks and the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP)
Be advised: Protecting a domain name registrant or trademark owner from confusing and/or conflicting domain name registrations is not the responsibility of the domain and trademark registration processes. In the event of a registration of the above noted domain by a third party, the UDRP may be applied under the following conditions.
Evidence of Registration and Use in Bad Faith. - For the purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(iii), the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be present, shall be evidence of the registration and use of a domain name in bad faith:
(i) circumstances indicating that the domain name registered or acquired the domain name primarily for the purpose of selling, renting, or otherwise transferring the domain name registration to the complainant who is the owner of the trademark or service mark or a competitor of that complainant, for valuable consideration in excess of your documented out-of-pocket costs directly related to the domain name; or
(ii) the domain name has been registered in order to prevent the owner of the trademark or service mark from reflecting the mark in a corresponding domain name, provided that you have engaged in a pattern of such conduct; or
(iii) the domain name has been registered primarily for the purpose of disrupting the business of a competitor; or (iv) by using the domain name, registrant has intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to their web site or other on-line location, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the complainant's mark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement or your web site or location or of a product or service of a web site or location.
In addition to remedies provided for by the URDP, section 4a (1)(2)(3) & b (1)(2)(3)(4) existing registrants, trademark and service mark owners are provided by DNNP on domain names that are identical with new ccTLD, TLD extensions, or domain names that are confusingly similar to their own.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Note: you may disregard this notice. If you disregard this notice or fail to reply:
(a) The licensing rights of this domain name may be assigned to any other applicant who wishes to register it,
(b) DNNP and or any ICANN accredited registrar will not be liable for loss of domain name license, identical or confusingly similar use of your company's domain name; or interruption of business activity or business losses.
If you fail to register this domain it may be registered by any third party without further notice. Please advise us of your intent to (a) secure this domain name or (b) to leave this domain name for Public Registration.
