800-224-8606 Domain Registry Support scam

[Kate]

I just received a call from from 800-224-8606. The man on the other hand identified as 'Domain Registry Support'
Basically they called the whois phone number asking for the person on record to "verify information".
(They already tried to reach me a few days ago).
Looks like social engineering in the works.
It's either a scam or spam so I hung up on him as I was busy on serious stuff :p

Be careful !

They have called again. Be on the lookout and don't fall prey to social engineering

Hmmm...they keep calling even after you hung up on them?
Either they are careless about marking off their list of "marks"
or you have a tele-stalker...lol

Anyway, thanks for posting the warning.
These scams continue to evolve. People should be aware and alert.
