Re: More Renewal Scams

[David Dorey]

They are using your trading name in an 'adverts' in a way that implies they are you.  Sue them, (if US law allows people who have been blatantly scammed like this to sue)  if the same thing happened in the UK there would be a no contest issue.    Hmm maybe that is why such a small percentage of the scam related issues are UK or Euro related.  Seems to me that US mega corps only wanna pick on folks they know will sue in US courts.   If I were you, I would think about starting a $120 UK limited company and do all your legal stuff here.  Lot cheaper and more scary for a big corp.  ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Petersen To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 4:48 AM Subject: More Renewal Scams Hi All,     FYI, I've posted a couple more renewal scam emails that were sent out by RCOM. These are really pushing the ethics envelope. One of them doesn't openly use any business name in it *but* mine. Nowhere in the text of the email does it say "Register.Com", even though they are obviously the sender. Nice, huh? As usual, feel free to borrow whatever you like to inform your own users. http://www.planet-nic.com/scams_email.asp Regards, -Mark   Mark Petersen    [EMAIL PROTECTED] Planet Nic    http://www.planet-nic.com
