Anyone with the inner moral slime to do something like this has access to
the information. Just sign up for access to the zone files. This is not
something that requires special access. That is why you get it from all
sides and from places you have never done business with...

Me too.
I was hit with 3 of them, for three different domain names, that were also
only registered through OpenSRS only 1 year ago.
This is definetly a load of crap.
This is not right that Register.com can have access to this information
and the rest of us can't. I really think that if they are sending letters
to our customers and us, that we should have the right to solicit their
customers back. Can Tucows help us out with this one?
Please advise.

I have NEVER had a domain with them, and the one I posted and I am
talking about is one of my domains. I got it through OpenSRS a few years ago
and it has stayed with OpenSRS since then.... So, that can't be the
case..... If someone at Register.Com told you that, then they are lying
through their teeth.

In the case of Register.com, it looks like they are soliciting
previous customers. We received a notice the other day from them that
listed about ten domains that were originally registered through them but
since transferred to OpenSRS. I didn't think it was worth the effort to
check, but I'm assuming their TOS and/or privacy policy state that they can
continue to market to you after you are no longer a customer unless you
explicitly tell them not to--again, just a guess.
At least in this case, the notice states renewal and transfer at least
twice on the front page in normal type, IIRC.

If a client is lured into transfering to Register.com. Verisign,
Domain Registry of America, etc...
Do we have to allow the transfer to go through? I mean is there a
way that we can block the domains from being transfered out of our account
and into theirs? I think this would put a big damper on their solicitation
for new customers.
Secondly, where are these companies getting this information? I
would really like to know so that I may contact them and inform them to take
me and my clients off of these sold lists. This is bull$#!*
Thanks,

I had a call a few days ago from a client telling me that he
received a renewal letter from Register.Com - However, I told him not to
worry about it and to ignore it as I thought it was some kind of error. But,
it seems Register.Com is following the footsteps of the VeriSign idiots....
I am going to post this renewal form on our site in the next 20 minutes or
so...(Just in case no one has seen it yet and would like to)
