Speaking of Verisign weirdness... The other day, I got a paper renewal notice for a domain that *is* at Verisign. Curiously, the "Amount Due" field showed an amount of $8.00 (for a one year renewal).
Has anybody else seen this? I've seen the $29 transfer letters, but this is a legitimate renewal notice. I'm just shocked that they would go for the low price approach. It's just not like them. :) Regards, Eric Longman Atl-Connect Internet Services +-------------------------------------------------------+ | Atl-Connect Internet Services http://www.atlcon.net | | 3600 Dallas Hwy Ste 230-288 770 590-0888 | | Marietta, GA 30064-1685 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +-------------------------------------------------------+ ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Kirikos" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 4:16 PM Subject: Verisign "International Business Reply Mail" postage paid envelopes :) Hello, I got the Verisign "renewal" scam mail today, and was about to toss it in the garbage, but noticed that it had a POSTAGE PAID envelope inside! Coming from Canada, that has to cost them at least 50 cents, if not more when you factor in the cost of opening each one, etc. I'll be sure to send it back to them, with a few choice words inside, to make them rethink pulling this stunt again. All the names they tried to get me to "renew" were never at NSI, either (all were OpenSRS names, past and present). Sincerely, George Kirikos http://www.kirikos.com/ P.S. I got a couple of "Domain Registry of Canada" ones today too, but alas no postage-paid envelopes. :( __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
