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: SERVICE NOTICE Attention: Important Notice Complete and return by fax to: 1-646-385-7542 47-47 36th Street #16452 Long Island City, NY 11101 United States of America ATT: JONATHAN VINKEL ADMINISTRATIVE CONTACT VINKERWEB 15 VINKEL TERRACE VINKEL , NORTH VINKELSHIRE , VO104VU VI Phone: 44.441560662 WWW.NAVYPRACTICE.ORG Domain Name: NAVYPRACTICE.ORG Search Engine Submission Requested Reply May 12,2009 PART I: REVIEW SOLICITATION Attn: JONATHAN VINKEL As a courtesy reminder, we are sending you this notification for your business Domain name search engine registration.
