This is the note that went to the registrar:


Hello,

The other day I was registering some domains, for each one an email followed, it addressed me by name and said --

<included e-mail as in original post>

The only way they could get the name used is from the secure order form, which is very weird, any idea how this is happening? Sorry I deleted the original e-mail (the url did not resolve anyway) The above is the e-mail verbatim, except I removed my name, the URL, and the sig, so that I could post it in a forum to get an idea how many others were getting a similar e-mail when registering or transfering domains.

A number of people reported the exact same e-mail was sent to them (I assume using various registrars) I did not mention you as the registrar, and no-one else mentioned their registrar either. Any info you can provide would be appreciated.

Thanks for your response.
