We recently received a letter from Toyota concerning our lexusxxx.com domain. They felt that our girl, Lexus was similarly confusing to the consumer to their line of vehicles. Yeah, Lexus is her real name, check out the tattoo in the pic below!

While we know that it would be pretty hard to confuse a girl with a car, we didn’t want to waist the time trying to fight them, plus we would probably lose, so we have moved Lexus from lexusxxx.com over to 4realteen.com.

Since all affiliates are linking through our affiliate software at 4realcash.com you will not have to make any changes at all. All your traffic that was going to her site is still going to her site, now just at a new URL.

Oh yeah, Happy Holidays!!

Crazy... but I guess Toyota had no choice but to send you a letter, and you probably don't want to go up against their legal department.

Yeah, their pockets are a little deeper than ours, and I honestly have better things to do... lol Even if I were to win, I'd just be spending time and money on it rather than spending time and money on our business.

It's kinda funny in a way, I was just at a Lexus dealership here in Kansas City looking at their RX 400h for Anna.

Crap, I have "Toyota" tattooed on my chest.

They gave me a list of acceptable names, such as Lex, Lexi, alexis, but not alexus...

So you can change your tattoo to Toya, Atoya, but not Atoyo as we feel that would be similarly confusing... :bless:

Oh I see. Someone on the legal team must've got caught surfing porn at work and he/she tried to cover it up saying they were doing research. They then had no choice but to follow through and send Bruce the letter.

Toyota would be smarter to start an ad campaign that says:

"Buy a Lexus today and get a free 1 year membership at Lexusxxx.com"

sales would rise for sure hehe

I think they clicked the webmater link on her site and noticed you have pictures of your Hummer and Vette on the 4realcash splash page and got bitter you don't have any Toyota products on there! You know how many webmasters pimp out their Camry, bling bling yo!

Did they buy the domain from you? That's the real question.

Yes, as of today it's no longer ours. I wonder how many sex related domains some of these car companies have just so nobody will use them...lol
