DROC and DROA are the same outfit, doing the same fake renewal invoice 
scam on both sides of the border.  They've had legal problems in Canada, 
too.  I believe they are also the same as Libertynames which does a fake 
directory invoices.

My stack of DROA paper mail is now close to 10cm high, so any claims they 
have been deterred so far are unpersuasive.
