Country: | GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address Owner of FamilyAlbum.com finds his domain was re-registered by another GoDaddy customer. http://domainnamewire.com/2007/02/27...email-address/
Many of us are aware of the Seclists.org debacle, but this is going a little too far.
If this is true, then I would venture to say that a great many of us are in danger of losing a domain or two or numerous over such antics.
Out of date email? Phone number? Address? Contact info?
Better check!

Not making much sense as a reseller usually has a Wild West Domains account, not one attached directly to GoDaddy.com.
Unless this journal is taking direct ads as an affiliate of CJ as there does appear to be a cj in the affiliate code.
Damn, Acro...always on top of the crappola. I guess that's better than being under it.

Country: | Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address I don't mind clicking on ads knowing what they are. But I detest the "context" links that attach affiliate codes. It's just not right. A journalist reporting a story should be detached from kickbacks.

However, I can't see someone reading this story and regging a domain at GD.
Aw, hell. Who am I kidding. There is a huge gap between "reading" and "reading comprehension".

Country: | Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address It looks like kontera-like advertising. This site (dnforum) uses similar advertising. Log out and do a search and you will see some of the text is double-underlined with paid links. |

That's why the site best-work-at-home-directory.com appears. You can tell they aint asking for an appraisal on this site on that hyphenated monster.
But, if it works for them, it works...period!
