    I just got a letter in the mail from web-listings.net saying i need to send them 65 dollars for one of my domain. Im pretty sure its some kind of scam. Has this happened to anyone else?

    I Got the same letter from web listings inc. I called my web site people and confirmed that it's a scam. I took the self addressed envelope that came with the bogus bill, went into the yard and let my dog fill it with payment.

    The website that the letter is listed to James Madison one of our beloved presidents. The 800 number says thanks for calling and says to press 0 to talk to a rep. All it does is say invalid number try again, but 6 will let you leave a message. I say flood the number with messages. The law won't take care of this scam artist I say that we do. Oh and the regular number that is listed is the Niagra Aquarium.

    It's astonishing that this thread is as old as it is, and that I received the same letter this week. Either there are a lot of poor saps sending them money for their "services," or they've been taken themselves by a traditional mail marketing outfit. I really hope it's the latter. I hate companies like this.

    I have been using Web Listings Inc for several years. THEY ARE LEGIT!!! I know some of these companies are scams but these guys are not. My domain and website is www.vintagebmwlive.com - My site is certainly not going to show up on the first page of google... but it was listed with smaller search engines and definitely did help my website search optimization. Well worth the $65 per year!!! I highly recommend them... really!!!
