Sham Site Is a Scam: There Is No "National Do Not E-mail Registry"
Have you submitted your e-mail address to a "National Do Not E-
mail Registry" that promises to reduce the amount of spam (unsolicited e-mail) you receive? If so, you
are the victim of a scam, according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
The web site at "unsub.us" mimics the language, look, and navigation of the Web site for the National
Do Not Call Registry, a legitimate free service of the federal government. The "unsub.us" site is not
run or authorized by the FTC and is concerned that the "unsub.us" site could be part of a high-tech
scam that uses a deceptive Web site to trick consumers into disclosing their e-mail address or other
sensitive personal information.
