Does anyone know how to get these fuckers to stop mailing "Domain Name Expiration Notices" to my mailing address?

I've never registered a domain through them ever, yet they've taken it upon themselves to post me 9 domain renewal notices for domains that need to be renewed in March next year.

I like this part of the disclaimer they put in the small print on the back of the letters:

"Domain Registry of America IS NOT affiliated with or endorsed by the Government of the United States."

Oh, one more thing I just have to point out: NO ONE at this mailing address has: porn, xxx, cumshot or anal anywhere their name, trust me on this one :mad:

It's not as if they're charging a reasonable amount for the domains either, $25 per domain. Are they insane? :huh:

Plus the renewal notices get posted back to a UK address... :hmm:

They used to charge $35 and it was a Philippines address.

People must be really dumb to fall for it though. It does say (in tiny writing) that this is not a bill. Not many would notice it though... fuckers. :mad:

If you bitch to ICANN enough they might pull their license. Think ICANN has done that to other spamming DNS services in the past.

These guys have been at it for a while now ... I got my first one 3-4 months after I bought my first domain.

Trev I got some of those too, 4 in total .. read it thoroughly, to then proceed to wipe my arse on one, and send it back in the enclosed envelope ..

An excellent idea. I can't think of a better way of them taking my name out of their database :okthumb:

There are about 5-6 companies who use this as their business model. I get at least a dozen a week. Think of how many trees they are killing.....
