Domain Name Scam

The way this scam works, the scammer tells you that your domain is expiring (when it's not) and asks you to pay a large amount of money to renew it. Instead, the scammers take your money and don't actually renew your domain.

WANT TO SUPPORT ME & MOTIVATE ME TO MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS?

ALSO, BECAUSE I GET ASKED AT LEAST ONCE ON EVERY VIDEO - "WHY/HOW ARE YOU VERIFIED? YOU HAVE LIKE A FEW HUNDRED SUBS!"
Back in 2011, I was one of the first to register for Google+ (yeah, remember that thing?) and at one point Google had a "verification" option to prove I was a real human and one day a "verified" check appeared next to my name. Then, Google decided to link everything to Google+, including YouTube. My account was of course linked and that carried my verification over. Fast forward several years and the meaning of verified went from "I am an actual human with this name" to "I am an elite status symbol". Well, because I was verified before Google changed the rules, I was allowed to keep my verification. I do not agree with reserving verification status to only the few who meet the criteria. Anyone (person or business) should be allowed to be verified so that others know they are who they say they are.

I get some similar emails from time to time. I never even open them.
Disgusting scammers. Nothing new of course as I remember getting similar emails 20 years ago, but still. Cool video.

I received an automated phone call about my domain name that was going to expire. I had no clue what they were talking about. I am glad it went to voicemail.
