This just came it and we are pretty sure it's an exploit designed to get people to click on a link to a spreadsheet that will infeact your computer. We are not sure because we did not click on the link, but there are many things about this that make us think it's bogus. I have reported it to the owner of the site and the hosting provider and will post again if I hear back from them.

Subject: ***SPAM*** Suit filed.
We have been informed of the website(s) you'r company owns, registered through Go Daddy Domains. As the registrant, we asks that you remove all references to us and our products.
As a network marketing company we do not permit its name to be used in any URL or email address and the company must take necessary action to protect its intellectual property. It is not permitted for a third party vendor to use our trade name in any form.
Link to a list of the trademark material: h t t p://www,novelideas-books.com/.../spreadsheet.xls
Our companie's name and symbol is a registered trademark. (U.S. Reg. Nos. 3111333, 3111332, 78526279). Our companie's federal registration of these trademarks provides our company with the right to restrict the use of the trademark, or a confusingly similar trademark, in any way that misrepresents the origin of our companie's products or dilutes the companie's brand and goodwill associated therewith.
State and federal law supports our position that the use of our trademarks and proprietary copyrighted material may cause confusion among customers. This confusion may cause substantial harm to the trademark by facilitating the loss of its effectiveness in establishing a distinct association between it, our products & services, and the companie's goodwill. Your unauthorized use of the companie's federally registered trademarks amounts to an infringement of our companie's trademark rights.
We wishe to settle this situation amicably and therefore, requests that you immediately cease the use of our trade name. Additionally, we request that you respond to this email within seven (7) days to confirm this action via email.
Respectfully,
Distributor Compliance Specialist
