Domain Registry of America: Scam Warning

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Just a quick not to add to the many similar references online about this company. They’ve started mailing me (postal) about domains that are about to expire “in the next few months”, and how I could save money transferring to them. Some of the domains are also ones that expired years ago, but where I was the last domain holder.

They charge about 6 times the average rate of a 1 year .com domain registration, and from what I scan-read online, the Canadian courts have already warned them about deceptive marketing practices.

If you get any mail from them, ignore it. Maybe double-check your domain expiry dates to make sure they’re all up to date, but don’t deal with DRA.

Warning over.
