It is getting harder for the not so savvy domain owner to distinguish between legitimate renewal notices and ones from scammers. It is extremely important to know where you have your domain registered and to stay ontop of renewals in order to prevent scammers conning you into paying them money. It is extremely disheartening to have to tell someone that they have fallen for a scam and that there is no way to retrieve their money. I agree with Bee!

They appear to be a renewal notice and even have a detachable payment slip attached making it quick and easy to add your credit card and post it off with the other bills. They are so convincing that I am not surprised that people fall for the scam. I have received a number of letters like that from a US company for my domain.
