Dear Sir/Madam,
Your domain name, *******.***, has been suspended after Go Daddy received complaints from Internet users that they received unsolicited email messages (aka spam) from you.
Multiple warnings were sent by Go Daddy's Spam and Abuse Department to give you an opportunity to address the complaints we have received. These warnings were sent to the following addresses:
- The contact for your domain name, on 8/15/2011.
We did not receive a reply from you to these email warnings so we then attempted to contact you via telephone at the following numbers:
- The telephone number you submitted when you set up your Go Daddy account, on 8/25/2011. The phone rang over 10 times without an option to leave a message.
We had no choice but to suspend your domain name when you did not respond to our attempts to contact you.

Go Daddy defines spam as a mailing sent to recipients, as an advertisement or otherwise, without first obtaining prior confirmed consent from the recipients before sending the mailing in question. Prior consent must be given to you directly from the recipients of your mailing for the specific domain name that you are advertising.
Go Daddy does not consider consent to be transferable. For example, simply purchasing, renting, or leasing an "opt-in" list from another company does not constitute proof of opt-in or prior consent. If you or another company are sending mailings advertising your domain name or website to individuals that have not requested this information from you directly, it is our opinion that you are spamming these individuals.
You can view Go Daddy's Anti-Spam policy by clicking on the "Anti-Spam Policy" link located on Go Daddy's "Legal Agreement" page. Click the following link to access Go Daddy's "Legal Agreements" page: https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/agreements.asp.
At this point you have two options available to you, each is outlined below:
----- Option # 1: Provide proof of opt-in.
Go Daddy has a strict anti-spam policy, Go Daddy customers are required to be able to provide conclusive proof of prior consent for any individual they send advertisements to. This also applies to the actions of any party that generates traffic on your behalf. This includes, but is not limited to, 3rd party marketers, business partners, employees, mailing list providers and affiliates.
We have supplied an example address from a complaint in order to allow you to investigate the situation and show proof of prior consent to receive your mailings. Proof of prior consent can be provided by supplying the information outlined below.
A. Provide server logs showing when the complainant connected to your site and subscribed, opted-in, or consented to receive marketing information from your organization. This information must include the following:
* Time/Date of opt-in/subscription/consent.
* IP address of the web server the complainant used to connect to your site.
* Referral URL.
B. Provide a detailed explanation of how the example email address was obtained, provide a copy of any confirmation messages, complete with header information, that this individual sent to you when they consented to receive marketing information from your company.
C. In addition to the information outlined above, please forward all contact information you have for this individual along with any other relevant information that you feel supports your claim of prior consent.
We will then investigate the validity of the information that you provide. The complainant located at the example email address may be contacted to verify and/or confirm any contact information or subscription details. If the information you provide checks out, we can probably consider this a situation where this person has forgotten they opted-in (a $75 administration fee* is required to reactivate your domain name).
The example address is: lastword@awishart.com, a copy of the offending email message has been included at the end of this message to assist you in your investigation.
----- Option # 2: Discontinue unauthorized mailing practices.
If you are unable to provide proof of opt-in and still wish to remain a Go Daddy customer and reactivate your domain name you must reply to this message with the following:
A. A statement that you will not send email advertisements or promotional mailings to any individual that has not previously requested this information from you or your company.
B. Authorization for GoDaddy.com to charge the credit card on file for your account a $199 non-refundable reactivation fee.*
-----
* Please Note: You may want to log into your Go Daddy account and confirm that the card on file is valid and has not expired
