<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=765175413-21032013>I know someone who
used to work for the Fair Business Practices branch of Industry Canada. They
investigate and prosecute stuff like that. They won't do anything unless they
receive a complaint. If you want them to do something, put it in writing. Here's
the website that describes how:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Yes, both I and one particular customer of mine have gotten a lot of
snailmail of this type, especially from DRoC (Domain Registry of
Canada). DRoC adds the further deception of making their envelopes look
similar to Government of Canada mailings - similar light brown envelopes and
similar red maple leaf logo.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Since DRoC is actually located in Canada, I wish our federal authorities
would crack down on them and put them out of business. Surely there must
be some grounds on which to do this? - the deceptive envelopes and logo, the
shady contents, etc. And CIRA, where are you when we need you?
Can't DRoC be deregistered for ".ca" at least, due to unethical
practises?</DIV>
