I have never dealt with these people, but they mailed me what looked a great deal like a domain renewal notice -- for a domain I had registered through another service ([[bulkregister.com]], whom I recommend).

Scary, huh? So put your domain in REGISTRAR-LOCK until you actually intend to transfer it!!

I have never dealt with these people, but they mailed me what looked a great deal like a domain renewal notice -- for a domain I had registered through another service (bulkregister.com, whom I recommend). Furthermore, their price was higher -- $35, same as InterNIC aka Network Solutions. I can easily imagine some functionary at a large corporation -- or even a non-technical secretary at a small business -- recognizing the registered domain and unthinkingly "renewing" it through this company, thus costing the business money and quite possibly causing other problems if the domain was set up with other services (e.g. DNS) through its proper registrar.

Remember to put your domain in REGISTRAR-LOCK state to prevent any transfers (intentional or otherwise). If you don't, thanks to ICANN, here's what happens:

  1. Someone (maybe you, maybe someone else) initiates a transfer with registrar B
  2. Registrar A, who you actually registered the domain with, sends you an e-mail asking if this is OK.
    • If you respond to the e-mail saying it's okay, it goes through.
    • If you respond to the e-mail saying it's okay, it doesn't go through.
    • If you don't respond to the e-mail, it goes through.

Scary, huh? So put your domain in REGISTRAR-LOCK until you actually intend to transfer it!!
