Has anyone else
received the following? I was especially unimpressed by the
legal threat at
the end. I get the impression that the sender hasn't a clue
about who will be
entitled to use the .museum domain. But then he uses the
.net domain and
isn't really entitled to that (hardly appropriate for a
proposed business
listings site).
AIUI pre-registration is meaningless, and actually
impossible, and the
.museum TLD will be administered by the
unfortunately-named MDMA
With respect to this attempted scam, you may be
