Search Engine Registration Scam

Search Engine Registration Scam

If you have recently registered a new domain, you may have received an email similar to the one below:


“Hi there Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx,

Domain Name: xxxxxx.com  (Account #65327)
This email is being sent out to you because search registration for xxxxxx.com is pending.
Please register these domains to search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo ASAP to avoid late fees.

Registering for search engines would help you show up in search results and increase your online presence.

You can register your domain at: here
We sincerely appreciate your business! If you require anything, we are at your service.

Remember… If you do not register your domain with the search engines, it may not appear in the search engine listing when people are looking for you. Failure to complete your domain name search engine registration by the expiration date may make it difficult for your customers to locate you on the web. Complete your search engine registration today at: (link removed)

Sincerely,

Search Engine Registry 
1787 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Suite 1025
Washington DC, 20006

*Links have been removed in the above email.

Emails of this type are yet another form of unsolicited spam as a result of the registration of your new domain.  The best course of action is to not respond to these types of emails.  There is no need to pay for website registration with Google, Bing, or Yahoo, let alone worrying about the cost of imaginary late fees.  Through the use of Webmaster Tools this service is completely free.
