Re: First Place, Web Promotion, Unsolicited Calls?

The call came in "Unknown ID" so all I have is the moment he called,

I recently got an Email offering a varient of one of my domain names which I registered thru GoDaddy.


It was sent to an addy that I ONLY use for Godaddy and is only shown on my registrations thru GoDaddy.


I own many domain names and I only got Email re one domain name.


Someone is obviously trolling WHOIS.


I will give the company a call at the 800 number they provided, from a payphone.


[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Either 'someone' is trolling WHOIS or maybe that someone has a good friend working for GoDaddy, or maybe both. PAT]
