Another Scam/Spam Email Doing the Rounds
It's come to our attention that our clients (and
Itomic!) have been receiving unsolicited emails
that look like this (the grammatical errors are theirs, not
ours!):
"Dear Manager,
We are a professional Internet consultant organization in Asia,
which mainly deal with the global companies domain name
registration and internet intellectual property right protection.
Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with
your company. On Mar 18, 2009, we received an application formally,
one person named 'Jacques Dits' wanted to applied for the Internet
brand 'itomic' and some domain names through our body. etc,
etc".
In other words, a company is emailing you claiming that another
company has contacted them in relation to registering business
and/or domain names like the ones your company already owns in
Australia.
Please be advised that these are auto-generated, auto-populated
generic spam emails, and you are very safe to ignore and delete
them. There is one positive to come out of such emails: they do
alert businesses to the existence of the opportunity to register
additional domain names for your company in countries other than
Australia. So if your company is thinking long term and global
then, subject to eligibility and availability, it's much
better/cheaper to secure your .uk, .eu (Europe), .cn (China), etc.
sooner rather than later. When it's gone, it's gone!
Would you like to better protect your brand by acquiring
non-Australian domain names? Contact us with what you're
thinking (i.e. which countries you'd like to target) and we're
happy to advise you on availability, eligibility, and prices. The
latter two often vary from country to country, where each country
has the right to set the rules for its own country-level domain
name.
