It’s more akin to any other domain registrar that offers a discount for the 1st year of registration. Or a hosting company that gives you a “free” 1 year domain registration with paid hosting.
That’s not a scam or fraud when the renewal period rolls around and the annual fee increases from the discount rate or you have to pay for the 1st time.
The scam/fraud seems to be the review alleging the reviewer had a high traffic domain name that was just taken without notice so Freenom could sell it.
- konschubert 5y agoFreenom doesn't sell the domain at the nominal fee, they put it up for auction. They also hide this fact from their victims until it's too late.
- throwawaycities 5y agoI have registered at least a dozen for the standard fee (~$10/year).
