We have been getting these for a while now. Quite a few of our clients have contacted us asking what they should do.

Common spam going on. Either HK or from Mainland China. Sometimes they already register the name, most of the time not. Can’t have all the extensions anyway:

I’ve had loads of these also, they are welcome to waste their money by registering all my domain names with far easten extensions .cn .jp etc, I won’t be needing them or buying them for hugely inflated prices.

I blogged about this last July: Erimart Scam The funny thing is, a few days after I posted that, they came by and posted 12 different versions of the scam email in the comments of the original post. Now I have lots of different versions

I’m really pleased I’ve just found your blog. I’ve been contacted by Nancy Wang from the Hong Kong Network Service Company Limited who has already tried to contact me by phone from Singapore twice now. It all seems very strange to me and thank you for posting this blog! They are very determined.

Dear IT manager ,

We are a domain name registration center in HongKong, mainly dealing with domain name registration and internet intellectual property rights protection.On July 26th 2009 we received a formal application from a local company of your country named”Angel Investment Company”,and the keyword and domains the third company want to register is just as below:

Keyword: “tlsa”

Domains:

www. tlsa.dk

www. tlsa.fr

www. tlsa.asia

www. tlsa.hk

www. tlsa.com.hk

www. tlsa.jp

www. tlsa.sg

www. tlsa.com.sg

According to the domain registration laws and statutes,the original owner of the domain name and trademark has the priority to register other similar domains. So if you want we can get you preferencial right to register the domains above.

If you consider them important to your company,and would like to protect these domain names by registering them ahead,we would send you an application form. Once we received the completed application form ,we will repeal the third party’s application soon.If you have any problem,please contact me .I am looking forward to your early reply.Thanks.

The introduction of internet keyword is enclosed .

Best Regards,

Nancy Wang
