Internet Networx Scam: Fake Domain and Website Renewal Invoice

The Internet Networx invoice below is a fake and appears to be a scam. Therefore, recipients of the same invoice, which has a renewal fee of $194, are asked to ignore it. This type of scam prey on people who are not internet savvy staff. The people behind the fake invoice appear to trick potential victims into paying for Domain Name Renewal, knowing they are not responsible for the renewing of the victims' domain names or websites. Below is an invoice that I have received from Internet Networx, but they do not host my website or register my domain name.
