Domain Services renew scam

    I just got this email spam-scam, first time I've seen it. I changed the domain name and my address, but everything else is exactly how it arrived. Of course I wasn't fooled into calling them etc, but it did make me check the expirey date, which in fact isn't until August. Still, I wouldn't be surprised if some of my sillier clients give it more consideration:

    Its not new for me.
    I have received such mail thousand time already.
    The best way to prevent this scam to fall on you is enable the auto renewal option so that you don't need to worry about the expire date.
