**************************************

Dear Domain Account Holder,

You are being sent this notice from ICANN due to the fact that you

expected to submit their domain information manually at

required information for ICANN to apply the required updates.

The upgrades will be applied to accounts on a first come, first serve

Thank you for your time.

He must be pumping them out as we speak; where's the FBI when you need them? I wonder what stolen information he has on his laptop?

KingDon you might want to kill that link in your post.

I fear this will gather quite a bit of information, if only because no-one has tried it before. Has anyone gotten more than one of these to the same email address? It appears that they have removed duplicate listings. Spelled everything correctly and although the grammar is strained it isn't too far off. Pretty dangerous, IMHO.

Hey I have an idea! Lets report this to the real ICANN!
Their expert detectives will catch these guys in hours!

Oh, wait. ICANN has no expert detectives, do they?
Not even sure if there IS anyone to report this to.

Let's hope not to many people fell for this, and they can catch whoever is behind it.

The best way is to forward to their web hosting company, ensure that such phishing accounts are closed so that they won't be a threat to others. Also send a copy to ICANN hope that they will take action.

Did anybody get a phone call from these creeps? I got a call yesterday from the "ICANN Domain Federation" saying they needed to update my records. The guy spoke reasonable english but has a slight Indian or Asian accent. The phone number he called from was: 1-800-224-8606.

It was clearly a scam and it really pissed me off they pushed so close to invade my privacy.
