I have noticed that some registrar uses images for the whois email info, thus making it harder for spammers.

I think the images are created by the whois tools, and not by the registrar, maybe I'm wrong. If I check whois from domaintools or who.is for a name registered with godaddy, the email id is masked by images. But the tool I've written gives me the text email id.

shaelheart is an unknown quantity at this point
 



Domain owners account name and contact details are easy to get when you are not on privately protected. Of course you have to pay more if you enable privacy protection to keep you free from spam.

AddDomainsNames.com Spam


Are these guys for real? Has anyone received any of their spam?

We're starting to get them pretty regularly for almost every new hand-reg, and the odd domain registered in the past.

The AddDomainsNames.com spam email begins with the misguiding subject designed to get you to open the email:
{domain name} purchase.

Then the body goes like this:

"I noticed you just bought *************.com.

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/warnings-and-alerts/683673-they-keep-spamming-me.html
Our statistics indicate that your domain's primary keyword phrase, '**** *****', gets around 46 exact local searches per month and 4400 exact global searches per month. We have many similar domain names available that get a lot more monthly searches and will bring you a lot more traffic.

Here is our list of domains about ***** ******.
adddomainnames.com/?id=xxxxxx&n=0


We also have a daily premium domain drop list.
Subscribe to our drop list
adddomainnames.com/drop_subscribe.php?id=xxxxxx&n=0



We can also help you with developing your domains, hosting your websites, and getting your sites to rank high in the search engines.


newdomain @ inline.me
10765 Reading Road - Cincinnati, Ohio
To Opt out:adddomainnames.com/unsubscribe.php?id=11641&n=0"

If we don't respond to the first email, stop sending more unsolicited emails (spam)!

This type of tactic is giving domaining a very bad name.
