ATTENTION PLEASE READ!
I am attaching screenshots of what I received to make you all aware of this. Not sure what type of scam you want to call this one, but I purchase all my domains through WA and know that this is some type of new scam someone has created.
Do not be fooled by people know what you have here at WA is the real deal, I have no idea where this person came up with thinking I would pay for my domain that I purchased through WA let alone pay almost five times as much for a single year to renew it?????
It might be hard to read from the screenshot I have taken above but a One-Year Term is $75.00 seriously you must be kidding me when with WA I only pay $13.99 a year for my domain.
Below is a screenshot of the email I received from these morons (sorry but I do not know what else I can refer to them other than morons thinking I would fall for this):

I realize that my screenshots are not the best to read just hoping it will save anyone from a panic thinking to pay these scammers that amount for a domain that you already own through WA.
Never Get Scammed
What got me at first was the way they had the nerve to write this email making one think there was a possibility of some type of legal problem with my website.
At first, I was a bit shaken thinking I had printed something on my website and was being sued or asked to remove it from my website. What a relief when I clicked on the shortened link from bitly to find they wanted me to over-pay for a domain I have owned through WA for almost 2 years now.
Just wanted to warn everyone here at WA so they know what type of people are out there still trying to scam those of us who know enough to do our homework prior to getting involved with any type of scam!
Plan on adding a post to my website with the same screenshots to warn others who might get email notifications concerning their domains. Also, this will serve to show people who are unaware of how scammers work their scams.
In Conclusion
Any ways that was all I wanted to warn everyone about today hope it helps at least one person from getting ripped off.
Praying this post finds all of my WA family well and safe from the COVID-19!
Bless you all and stay safe,
Susan
