Hi Guys,
Got an obvious scam going on this morning. Completely obvious but thought I would post it in case anyone may be taken in by such a email.
Email from [email protected] forwarded to me by dynadot privacy service.
"Dear Sir,
I have just bought the domain of "xxx". io on godaddy, but have input the wrong Authorize code.
Could you please unlock the domain of "xxx" . io and send me the authorize code?
Mr Li
User of Godaddy"
Also received a few emails from Dynadot about an attempted transfer and failure of said transfer.
I have contacted Godaddy by phone and reported it along with forwarding the email to [email protected]
Hopefully if this account has been successful in grabbing any other domains, Godaddy can lock it down before the manage to transfer them out.
