Domain name registration spam (again)
Posted September 28th, 2010 by peterBack in September last year we reported some clients were receiving email from Asian Domain name registrars attempting to sell more domain names by using scare tactics in relation to brand names – see the post here
Different people, but it is all go again – must be a quiet time for Asian domain name registrars – Our advice – If you receive these and you do not have intentions of delving into these markets and having a Chinese presence - delete themHere is an example of an emails being received by clients
