The 3 emails were about the 3 domains that I've transfered to that recipient from the first email.
I have transferred them to another owner, and haven't canceled them, so what's going on?

That's scary. I can see a name in there that I sold to another NP member yesterday.

I just checked my goDaddy account, and all seems to be ok, I wonder what's up with these emails.
Anyone else got emails like that?

the cancellation email(s) is (are) correct ... after you transfer (push) a domain in GoDaddy, they send an email that the transfer has been completed (all domains in the request together) and a cancellation email for each domain separately ...



regarding the "big" email , it is probably a glitch or something ... if your domains are intact , don't worry ... if concerned , send an email to support ...

I emailed GoDaddy about the DOMAIN OWNERSHIP TRANSFER email containing everyones domains.

They told me that if I was concerned about the cancellation email, to contact the admin of this forum to have the post removed!

I explained to them, very slowly, and using simple diagrams, that their system had sent out the DOMAIN OWNERSHIP TRANSFER confirmation not to me, but to another person, and that they should let their programming staff know about it.

After that they seemed happy that they didnt need to fix anything and told me they had forwarded it to their developers.

I can explain that. It's a flaw in the GoDaddy system. What happened is the new owner of your 3 domains did a bulk checkout of transferred domains including domains they bought from other sellers. The email to the sellers will include all the domains the buyer checked out. So the other sellers will have received a similar email with your domains included.

I got the SAME exact email for the domain I regged yesterday. I didn't put in any such request
