Yeah, The old Domain Appraisal scam, It has been going on as long as i can remember back, Just disregard that trash, Don't be discouraged because of it though. Today it is very tough to disclose your whois info, auto dialers and scammers will tear your phone number up calling it, It makes me POed big time too! Because i have made more sells via someone contacting by my phone number, than any other way. The second being contacted to my email.

Now that we are in age of so many scammers and POS, I myself, and i am sure a lot of people have to use whois privacy>:(

The appraisal scam is very hard to stop, in fact it appears completely legal.
