I also received this about 2 weeks ago informing me that a company in China wanted to register a similar domain and that I should protect my brand. I did a google search on the company and the name of the person who signed the email to see if they were legit. I got a couple emails from them after the first contact and I never bothered to reply. I checked Godaddy, realized my domain was up to date and just blocked the sender's email address. Hi Kathie.
