What you experienced sounds exactly like what the victims of residentialvoicemail.com are saying. They are on a totally different website filling out a survey or looking for freebie type things and then they get an email saying they signed up for a voice message service. I don't know if these are connected or not, but as you can see by the whois information below, they are using the same domain service and servers. The only differences are the company names and what they list for owner and address. Neither of them give a phone number. I tried to access the nwvmessaging.com website and all I got was a blank page on their main URL and on the cancel URL in the above report. As with residentialvoicemail.com, do NOT give them your phone number or then they can match it to your email address, claim you ordered their service and start to bill your phone bill every month and make it look legitimate!
