Hi Dan, This is a recently registered domain (a couple weeks ago) but it doesn't seem to resolve into spaces that are known to be spammy. That may just mean spammers have moved into a new network space, etc.
However there are a number of odd things about this domain from the registration, to the host's registration, etc. And it doesn't seem to resolve currently.
Is anyone else seeing this in spams?

Jeff, I've been getting spam containing that URL and other 'sisters' (such as "dealstoday.net").
They have major spam-sign hallmarks:
The payload is a few lines of HTML that reference images with the ad "message" and then massive amounts of "Bayes poison" hidden by HTML comments or CSS tricks (style="visibility:hidden"), bogus HTML (large amounts of text after the closing </HTML> tag), as well as being sent to stale local addresses.
Examples available upon request. ;)

Jeff,
Now you have your answer about how "spammy" GMB is. (This is them also - check the name servers, and rDNS - also, look around the net-block for other nearby GMB sites). Also, another partial hidden "private" registration (i.e. dealstoday.net).
