Hi,

We have received the following email and are concerned taht it may be a scam. Could you please advise.


Dear (Sensored domain name)

We are a global domain name registration center in Hong Kong, mainly dealing with domain name registration and internet intellectual property rights protection. On Dec 19,2009 we received a formal application from a company who is applying to register several domains, using “(Sensored domain name)”as the keyword. After investigation,we find that you are the original user of the keyword. Such similar domain cases may involve your trademark and company name,and may cause website confusion and conflicts. For a responsible attitude, we inform you here and ask for your opinion. If you don't mind,we will finish registration for the third company.
Regards,
Linda wang

Thank you for your email.

This email is a scam and one that has just recently popped up and caused confusion with a couple of clients now. I would advise that you do not respond to any of their correspondence.

They are fishing for information and trying to get you to buy similar names to your own. There is nothing you can do to prevent other people buying similar domain names unless you buy them all. This would cost a great deal of money with no real benefit to be gained.



We hope this is helpful,
Kind regards,
