I just got an email saying one of my domains was about to expire soon. It

wants me to renew for one year from May 19, 2012 to May 19,2013 for $75.00.

First of all, I just registered a new domain for $75 for FIVE years. Why

would I give the scammer $75 for ONE year. Also I checked

http://www.whois.com/whois and the domain in question doesn't expire until

Sep 23, 2013. I use two domain registrars that I trust so far - Hover.com &

Easyhosting.com

So this is a heads up to check whois on any of your domains.

This scam works when the IT people aren't in charge of IT dollars and some knucklehead secretary decides to pay the bogus bill.   

Remember the toner cartridge scam run 10-15 years ago?
