    Just wondering if anyone has got a "Reminder" from those guys about some sites you have not ordered???

    I just got a remind this morning and it looks pretty good, except for the fact it was send to a defunct company that I used to use several years ago...

    This was actually sent by snail mail, the company appears to be in the UK, but the "reminder" was posted from Sweden!

    Well known scam technique. The people who fall for it more than make up the costs of the bulk mailing.

    Yea, seems to be restricted to the German speaking world - I found some more references to it in some of the German forums.
