Hey,
I got a letter from a company in England saying I have to renew my domain name immediately eo ensure service continues uninterrupted...

I have never heard of them before and they sound like a scam to me, it sounds like they are saying the domain has to be registered through them and they are playing on the fact that a lot of people wont know anything about domain registration.

They say a lot of times about the domain becoming available for others to buy if I dont send them money ASAP for my domain (which I just renewed about 5 days ago by the way... )

The cost is........£60/2 years.
Which is around $100 I think for the 2 years...
What a rip off!

The company is EU REGISTRY SERVICES and they must search through the whois for domains expiring with the admin near them...

And into the bin it goes
