[registrars] Registrars being Phished

[Margie Milam]

All,

 

We have noticed that some registrars have been targeted for phishing
attacks to try to get account information.    For more information, see:

In response, we sent the attached email to our clients and thought that
it might be useful for any of you that may be targeted.  

 

Regards,

 

Margie
