You're lucky you're only getting emails! I get real letters in my PO Box every once in a while for such offers. Another twist on this is when they send a notification right before your expiration date asking you to renew. However, their renewal prices are insanely over the top and also include a transfer to their registrar.

Oh, I get these letters as well from Domain Registry of America. I fill the Post Office's recycle bin every time!

Yeah at least on those letters they say "This is a solicitation. Not a bill." I guess they're at least smart enough to not get hit with mail fraud!
