Hello!

Our client is interested in purchasing yoppay.com.

The buyer is an investor from Qatar with a solid budget for different online projects.

He is a professional investor with 17 years of experience.

I located your contact information in a domain name whois lookup and understand that you own the domain name.

Are you still interested in selling?

I work for a hosting company based in UK.

I help our clients to buy and sell intellectual properties.

Do you have more names? Can you send a list?

Are you an experienced seller?

Best Regards,
Ian Davidson

You have to keep yourself informed of such threads. Many people have posted similar emails claiming scam, as when you reply to the email, they will ask you to get a domain appraisal for which you will have to spend dollars. After you buy the appraisal the buyer goes silent. You end up spending for nothing.

I treat email offers as non-legit until I prove wrong.. Being suspicious on any mail is the right move, for the sake of your security and time.

First of all the email address is suspicious! If you go through the email address you will get nothing but redirected to another address. Second if you simply google some text or lines of this kind of email you will get many scammed story. You can browse also the identity of sender for sure.
