No, I'm not buying domains, but check your in-box for email like this one:

Are you willing to sell XXXXXXX.com to me.

I'm making an offer of 1500 USD. please let me know.
Thanks for your time.

Now before everyone replies to these guys, few things to keep in mind:
they may be legit or:
1) They may be building their mailing/spam list
2) They may be scamming you by using a fake escrow service to handle the transaction. they get your domain, you get nothing.
3) They may require you to pay for an appraisal and recommend you use one of their appraisers/partners/scammers
4) They may be testing to see if the domain's admin email is correct and if it isn't, then they will attempt to steal your domains using ICANN's new transfer policy
I have received over
4,000 emails from them in the last 48 hours and the emails are still coming.
and one more thing....
LOCK YOUR DOMAINS NOW OR THEY MAY BE STOLEN
anyone else get this email? everyone?
