Slamming Alive and Well?

So I get a "bill" in the mail today from Domain Registry of America. It says that my domain (dadrox.com) is going to expire on 27Dec2006, which is true, but they try to make it seem like if I don't send in the requested amount, I'll lose my domain.

I currently have my domains registered with 1and1, who has good prices ($5.99/yr), private registration, dns forwarding, locking, and some subdomains. DRoA wants $30/year, $50 for 2 years, or $95 for 5 years! Those prices suck! And a little bit of research shows that these guys are scam artists.

I thought the whole slamming thing was over with years ago... I guess not.

Anyway, if anyone out there happens to receive something that sorta of looks like a bill from Domain Registry of America, do yourself a favor, and just shred it.
