I just received this email from this company from China with the subject line: "URGENT---dispute of internet intellectual property safeguard" It seems there's this company in China that has a similar name to that of one of my domain names. What does this mean? Do they intend to try and seize my domain name? Do you think they will buy it from me? I registered my domain name way back in 2006 and never heard of this company... How can I play this right to make some money? Or is this a scam?
