Good Morning to the WA family

Just wanted to reach out to my WA family and say good morning but to the real point.


Email scams

This morning I woke up to a alarming email saying that my domain needed to be registered or else I would loose the ability to be found by any search engine such as Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.

Just coming out of a deep sleep, I almost fell for it but decided to research this a little with the WA community and found that I was not the first to receive spam email such a s this. Big thanks to those who gave me advise.


My need to share

When things like this happens to one of us then it most likely happens to many of us and at times we can all fall victim to this email spam that requires immediate attention, at least from what the email says. If you have a question about something, before reacting out should always ask for help from the WA community.

Email Example:


Attn: REGISTRATION PRIVATE
As a courtesy to domain name holders, we are sending you this notification for your business Domain name search engine registration. This letter is to inform you that it's time to send in your registration.



Failure to complete your Domain name search engine registration by the expiration date may result in cancellation of this offer making it difficult for your customers to locate you on the web.



Privatization allows the consumer a choice when registering. Search engine registration includes domain name search engine submission. Do not discard, this notice is not an invoice it is a courtesy reminder to register your domain name search engine listing so your customers can locate you on the web.

Example End.

Do not just trust anything that you get in your email, it could be legit or it could be a scam. Put trust in the WA community to help if there is any question.


I hope this is helpful,


Shane

Thanks for the advice Shane. Many new members might not have a clue about this and panic and fall for it.

I get about 3 of these per week Shane, just ignore :)
