    Just thought I would give people a heads up on an e-mail scam. If you receive an e-mail, usually from Jake Shen, saying something along the lines of the below message, it's a scam.

    They basically tell you someone has applied to register your website name as a trademark and give you first option to buy your domain name on all available extensions such as co.cn and co.whatever before the trademark is registered.

    They just want you to register domains through them, thus making them a nice bit of cash - simple as that. Nobody is trademarking your website name.
