$18.95 Card #: (No credit card info was here since I have never done business with them.) Exp Date: 0915 (None of my credit cards have this expiration date.) We were unable to process this card for the following reason: Restraint - Paymentech Code: 806 We want to continue to support your Web hosting needs. To do so, we'll need you to provide an alternate method of payment so we can continue hosting your Web site. To avoid any interruption of Web hosting service, please call Web.com at 1-800-932-4678 and select the billing option. Our business hours are Monday - Friday 8am to 8pm EST.

I use 1&1 and Netfirms to host my web sites and I have NEVER had any business relationship with web.com EVER. I contacted both 1&1 and Netfirms and they both said that this email was fradulent. I completed a report to my local police computer crime unit, my state police wire fraud unit, the ICCC fraud unit and the FBI computer crime unit. These guys are bad news and should be avoided at all costs.
