A Public Service Announcement (of sorts):
Occasionally I get domain renewal requests in the mailbox- the real one out by the street, not my e-mail. These come in official-looking paper envelopes branded by some company with an official-sounding name.
The problem is this: I register my domains online with a common registrar, such as Godaddy, Register.com, or Namecheap, and renewal costs a lot less that the paper notice is asking for. The other day I received one asking for me to renew domain names for up to $50. Normal domains run about $10-$15 online per year.
So if you get one of these, and even if it seems official, throw it away. It’s a scam.
