I didn’t receive my “Account Verification” e-mail? Please check your spam/junk or bulk mail folder or, just possibly, you may have entered your e-mail address incorrectly. Also, please recognize the fact some email providers and ISPs have implemented "spam filters" which because of their shabby design or poor configuration result in W-Address e-mails being filtered out or intercepted. Lastly, your email provider may be experiencing delays or other technical issues.

Can I buy a W-Address and sell it for profit? NOT permitted. Buying a W-Address in bad faith with the intent to profit from the goodwill of a trademark belonging to someone else (Commercial or Non-Commercial) is essentially considered the same deceitful scheme as “Cyber Squatting” a domain name.
