    Namesbeyond.com scam?

    I just received a "renewal" email from Namesbeyond, but the names listed on the email are at answerable. Is this a scam or are they a Answerable reseller and just are confused. I won the names from a snap auction.
    BobGuzzo.com domains.

    i thought you said your domain is not registered with them? From the who is, they control it and have privacy on.

    It could be the registrar that caught the name on your behalf when you had it backordered at Snap.

    See below. This does not look like a scam. These guys are legit, I have done business with them before. They even answer phone calls.

    They were awarded names by ICANN from 2 registrars who went bankrupt. See http://www.pressreleasepoint.com/bul...ed-namesbeyond.

    You should be glad they sent you renewal email instead of just killing your names.

    I see this also: http://www.namesbeyond.com/transfer
    Interested in sub $100 traffic portfolios. PM or email me.

    Answerable is just an interface to the numerous registrars that catch domains on behalf of Snapnames.
    Just transfer away to your usual registrar.
