Domain proxy service: What are the ramifications of being contacted?

Asked to update/correct first name/last name info. Could this be a sign?

Kind of odd but today I received two e-mails and a phone call from DomainsByProxy about my whois information. The letter read something along the lines of "We have received notification from ICANN that your first and last name
field is blank under the title of Registrant.". Simple enough I guess and I went in and changed that information.

The domain isn't anything special and in fact I forgot I even owned it (think it auto-renewed on me). It may be perceived as using a company name in it, although that was never the intent.

I'm wondering if this is a sign that some lawyer is trying to get my information. I don't really care, but it was an awfully odd e-mail I received.

Has anyone experienced this?

By any chance did you get this domain name via a drop catcher? I've noticed a few times that the Registrant field was blank on domains I got through [S]nap Names.

I'm not sure on what you mean there with drop catcher. If you mean perhaps it was a formatting error when going through them, it is entirely possible.

The address was in the name field and the words "State" was listed under the zip code box. Since I had never logged into the proxy service before, I'm guessing that my registrar has some issue sending over data.

In any case, is this common and just a random check? I've probably got close to 100 domains there that might have the same issue and have never received 2 e-mails and a phone call about. Seems very aggressive for a formatting error that could have been cleared up in an e-mail.

<<what you mean there with drop catcher>>

That's where you pay a company to grab an expiring domain name for you the instant it becomes available.
