Watch Out For Domain Name SCAM!

Hello All,

I wanted to make some important information available. There are several companies that send the owners of domain names offical looking domain name renewal bills. These are not real bills and unsuspecting people who pay them end up having their domain name registration taken over by this company. You then have to pay your domain name fee again with us for Miller Enterprises to get control of it again and to insure that it points to your correct web hosting server.

So in essence you are paying for something you have already paid for! It is call "slamming" and the number one company for doing this is callled "Domain Regestry of America". The bill looks very real but the fine print reveals that it is an offer to switch to their company. DO NOT send payment for domain name registrations or hosting fees to anyone but Miller Enterprises! If it doesn't come from us, then it is a scam! Unless of course you have purchased your domain name from another company such as Network Solutions, GoDaddy etc. in which case only authorize payment to that company and besure to talk to your billing department about this scam. It could easily slip through accounts payable before you catch the error.

I hope this helps!
