Been reading about a lot of phishing emails going out supposedly from your registrar. I have read about many getting them from "Enom", and I just got the following from "network solutions." Dear Network Solutions Customer, We recently notified you that the registration period for your Network Solutions domain name had expired. As a benefit of having previously registered a domain name(s) with Network Solutions, you are eligible to receive a percentage of the net proceeds that were generated from the renewal and transfer of the domain name you chose not to renew. Since you have chosen not to renew the domain name listed below during the applicable grace period, we were successful in securing a backorder for this domain name on your behalf and it has been transferred to another party in accordance with the Service Agreement. Renew your domain now - hxxp://www.networksolutions.com.com42.asia You must click on the following link, enter your domain name, and confirm your contact information in order to claim these funds. If your contact information is not correct, you must enter Account Manager and make the appropriate changes prior to clicking "submit" from the confirmation screen. If you do not do this, you will be confirming inaccurate information and will not receive any payment. Checks will only be made payable and mailed to the Account Holder of record. Sincerely, Network Solutions® Customer Support The subjects are usually something like " Subject: Attention: Inaccurate whois information." or " Subject: Your domain must be deleted today!" Be careful of what you click.
Yeah I get a lot of these, paypal, ebay, namecheap, basically any online service known to man. Just be smart and you will be fine.
And remember: There is no free lunch in this world. (Translated from a chinese proverb lol) Be yourself, use the right way to earn money
Haven't had one from paypal in ages. Was wandering where all the phising emails I used to get had gone, and then one from 'my bank' came through.
Had one the other day warning me that i was about to lose a domain name if i didnt reply the giveaway was it did not mention what the domain name was and it was sent to an old personal email address.
