Is private registration really a scam?
Private registration basics.
For those of you thinking private registration is private, let me tell you….. IT IS NOT. Don’t waste your money on this service. Now, granted, registrars use their promotions to persuade you to purchase a service you don’t need.
Generally, the price is $9 per year for private registration. When you have 1000 names and your own renewals only cost $7 per year, this is really not worth it. You have more than doubled what everything cost you!
I don’t have the link, but there was a prominent case early this year or late last year showing that private registrations are easily accessed by anyone who inquires. It was some guy involved in politics or religion ( don’t remember which). Anyway, the website he ran was very contradictory to what his public image was. There was a big deal surrounding the registrar giving his information to someone that inquired and exposed him, WITH a private registration. Moral of the story: private registration is not really private.
US-based registrars
If your registrar is based or has operations in the US, your registration is not private no matter what they say. Namecheap WILL NOT KEEP YOUR INFO PRIVATE, NOT GODADDY, NOT 1&1, NONE OF THEM. It doesn’t matter what they promise.
When they get a verbal or written threat of being sued, they will give your info at the drop of a hat. It is far more worth it for them to save $$ and avoid legal fights than spend it on keep their word and protecting one paltry domain registrant.
I speak from experience with 1and1. They are a sham. I have known others using Godaddy’s private registration with the same experience. You’re not worth it to them. It’s simply a money-making and marketing tool. It is not a legal protection to you.
Lost privacy.
Let’s say someone requests your “private” domain registration information. If the registrar has your personal information from the PAYMENT method (forget fake other stuff), that is what they provide to the person threatening legal action. It doesn’t have to be a lawyer who is threatening them. All it takes is for someone, anyone, to say “My attorney will be suing you if you don’t provide their contact information to me NOW.”

Blue Host, Gate.com and your Bank WILL STEAL FROM YOU!
I hope the title got your attention.
There seems to be a persistent and long-standing problem in the internet world with automatic withdrawals from your account when buying something on the web. It is as if once you use an account to buy something, the vendor has the RIGHT to take money from that account indefinitely.
A little history.
Back in the late 90s and early this decade, the MAFIA was running a recurring charge scam. The user would sign-up to a porn website and enter their account number. Later, they would go to the website and cancel it, or the website would promise to cancel it after a certain period. Of course, after that, many never thought about it again.
Well, guess what?
The website would continue billing the account. While a few people caught this and reversed the charges, many didn’t. The MAFIA made hundreds of millions ($100,000,000+) of dollars running this scam. In fact, they bought a bank to handle the operation!
Eventually, they got caught by the Feds. But do you think the credit card companies refunded all the money they made by participating in this scam? Do you think they made any attempt to discover this scam to protect you?
Your bank/credit card company is not out to protect you or your money. Now, let me tell you what happened to me.
BlueHost and Gate.com scam
I used Gate.com and BlueHost for hosting. For different reasons, I decided to switch to GoDaddy to host these websites. Just to be clear, I’m not recommending GoDaddy and I certainly don’t have my domains AND hosting with GoDaddy. It’s just that they were convenient for transferring these websites.
Gate.com
In the case of Gate.com, the hosting was fine but the price was exorbitant for my usage. Instead of cancelling I decided to cancel the card account used for the purchase. They tried and tried to submit a charge for hosting despite all the rejections. Eventually, the bank processed the transaction.
It’s strange my bank didn’t see all the failed transactions and yet not make any attempt to tell me someone is trying to access my account. They didn’t flag the charge. They didn’t review the charge. They didn’t block the charge.
I guess the banks will charge you for an overdraft for a single overdraft, but WILL NOT charge anyone else from multiple failed attempts to get your money.
Blue Host
For BlueHost, their censors decided my content wasn’t to their tastes and suspended the account. Instead of changing my content, I decided to just move the site. While this is happening, they make multiple attempts to charge the same closed account Gate.com tried. I guess BlueHost was offended by the content, but not TOO offended to try and take my money.
In both cases, for Gate.com and Blue Host, the BANK paid money from my account on a CLOSED charge card account (Mastercard). Now, if you think just because you close a debit/credit card account, the BANK still won’t pay it and charge you for it, you have just learned the opposite.
The Bottom Line.
Personally, the way banks are operating now, they are doing everything possible to generate overdraft fees/service charges/interest rate increases. This includes paying fradulent transactions. Plus, they don’t penalize multiple failed attempts for the same transaction by charging something like an overdraft fee. If each failed attempt cost $33, I guarantee almost all of these fraudulent charges would disappear.
The banks are not here to protect the consumer and really neither is PayPal. You have to be very careful with these payment options because they are not out to protect you, the consumer.
Web Charges.
Blue Host and Gate.com are not the only hosts guilty of this. It is basically industry practice. They probably all abuse this aspect of bank procedure, including GoDaddy. Hopefully, you can find a solution to this. I thought closing the card account would STOP fraudulent charges, but it seems that alone is not enough. You have to close the underlying account (credit, savings, checking). Then again, the way the banks operate, they’ll probably figure out another way to hit you with a charge by saying it’s a debt you didn’t pay.
Be careful out there!

Issues with Namecheap
A few issues with Namecheap…
I’ve been moving my domains away from Namecheap for a bunch of reasons.
- Their control panel is seriously buggy.
- If you transfer a domain away from them, they’ll keep showing that domain in your namecheap account and even send you renewal reminders.
- If you request an EPP code, 25% of the time you get no code or a wrong code.
- Their whoisguard only kicks in the next day.
- Email forwarding is buggy as hell….
The response from Namecheap…
- We have a “synchronize domain list” option when viewing your domain list that you can choose to use at any time. It will refresh your list and remove any transferred domains automatically.
- You can set the whoisguard option during the checkout process so it is in place immediately.
- Regarding email forwarding, our forwarding works perfectly fine. The issue is blacklists and the filtering that happens with the email address you forward to. Remember, you are sharing the same system with hundreds of thousands of other domains. So, if your isp (or email provider) chooses to filter even one domain on our network, they filter all of them. For a more reliable solution, you need popmail (or similar) to cut that extra step in the process which means a lot. I guarantee, if you search any registrar’s email forwarding services, you will see similar types of complaints for each and every one of them.
