Is this for real?

[Digital Eye Candy]

Hi guys,

I am really new to domaining. I purchased a domain last week. This morning I got the following email offering to buy the domain for $55, 000:

Hello!

I represent a buyer from Japan who wants to purchase xxxxxxxxxxxxxx for a new web project.

I've found your address via WHO IS.

My client is interested in purchasing your domain. If it's still for sale please get back to me.

He offers a good price. If it's not enough please let me know.

I'm working with many investors in Japan. If you have other names please email me the list.

Best regards,

Yuko Kitano

Domain Broker

Phone: 816776495331

I have done some searches to check if the email is showing as a spammer and nothing is appearing.

So the question is, do you think this email genuine? And how do I respond to determine that it is?

If anyone has had any experience with this I is would appreciate some help.

Many thanks.

A scam! Sometime they ask if you are a member of namepros.com or any other forum. in order for them to know if you are a good maga or not
