View Full Version : Domain Listing Center Spam
Linkster
2005-12-11, 06:42 PM
Have received numerous spam emails from this company:
Domain Listing Center Inc.
8171 Yonge St. Suite# 149
Richmond Hill, ON L3T 2C6
Canada
and am about to call in a report to the Canadian authorities although it probably wont do any good - they are trying to scam SE submission by making the email look like something you "wanted" and probably quite a few people are losing money on this.
Also reporting them through their email account but again it probably wont do any good

I have a feeling that these are the same people responsible for the "domain registry of canada" scam. They would mail (snail mail) "invoices" for domain renewals, which in fact were solicitations to move domains to their VERY expensive service (typically $35-$100 per year per domain). The "invoice" always came in a brown government style envelope, with the usual red printing and a Canadian flag... it was a total, complete, and overwhelming scam.

BTW, Linkster, the address they give is a mailboxes etc / UPS store... what have I said before about people using those things to hide?
Good luck on tracking them down... I wouldn't be surprised if the MBetc just redirects the mail somewhere else (which is an option on their services...)

Richmond Hill is part of, just north of Toronto I believe.

Yup, Richmond Hill is on the north side of the 401... Yonge street runs right through it.
A scam is a scam is a scam.

I bet you 100$ the office ain't at the address listed. I too get this f*cking spam all day long. The jackasses don't even take the time to filter out "webmaster" "admin" "support" etc... from their email spam program lol....
I think i'll get a anti spam email thingo. I never had one. I wonder if it's worth it.

Sounds like all the spam snail mail I've gotten from Domain Registry of America in the past, lol. All addressed to me using my domain names.
Real nice having things addressed to "sex" this, and "porn" that..
