Hi All, We've had a call from a customer that got one of these. They're basically telling clients that .com is going to be for "international" trade domains, i.e. no good for domestic use, and telling people they need to register the .us variant of the name for their protection.
Anyone know if they're still an OSRS reseller? Doug.
