The PO Box is real - at the Spokane Vally, Wa Post Office.  This is a "service" they are trying to sell - making it look like you had subscribed to it before.  Do not send your money.

    Since they're using a P.O. Box..
    File a fraud complaint with the US Postal Inspector.
    They can shut down the box and confiscate the prepaid box rental.

    Thank you complaintwire.org and previous posters on this forum. I received a notice from National Internet Listing today. I thought it looked a little off so I decided to do a little research. What a crock! This kind of dishonesty pisses me off so much. I will be sending them a, not so nice reply in their pre-stamped payment envelop and filing complaints with the US Postal Inspector and the Better Business Bureau.

      I own a business and bills flow in on a regular basis.  This looked like a legitimate renewal fee notice for one of our URL's.  The only catch was that the bill was received hard copy in the mail.  Why would a URL renewal come hard copy versus online?  I checked into it and found that it was a fraud.  Don't get fooled by this.  It looks real but is nothing but someone fishing for free money.

      When I get a bill from a company I never heard of, demanding $147 to renew a service I never asked for, I get a bit suspicious. I was grateful to find this forum as the first listing when I tried to look up the "National Internet Listing." I filed a complaint of Mail Fraud with the USPS.

      Our company received this today, and it looked very legit -- If you have a medium size company with IT people handling the interenet, this could get paid without much of a blink.     So happy for complaintwire, that cleared up the question I had about it's authenticity!

      Because I have a successful business, I have a lot of free time.  This sort of thing really pisses me off.  I am going to Spokane and am going to find this prick.

      I received a scam letter in the mail from National Internet Listing. It looked quite legit, but I never had a subscription in the first place, so the "renewal" part was wrong. Another thing that stood out immediately was that there was NO telephone number. NO website. Legit businesses have phone numbers, websites and email addresses. Round file...

      Just got this also. We've never used this service before. There wasn't even a phone number to call to confirm...

      Got this "Listing Notice" in the mail.  No phone, no email, no website.  I wonder how many people actually just pay their bills without checking.  I never do so I knew this was a scam.  I will report this to the usmail and send this with a RiP note.
