Has Anyone Else Been Getting Domain Spam Like This Lately?

Hello,

Sorry to bother you, however I would like to ask if the
thisispriceless.com domain name is for sale.
If we can agree upon a price, I can make payment securely and quickly via
Escrow.com.

Could you let us know what price you would consider?
Thank you greatly for your time. I anticipate your response.

Take care,

Symbo Tech LLC

Why is it spam if they are trying to buy a name off you?

I get tons and tons of those... always different names on them, but they all track back to about the same place.

Yep they win either way:

* You reply --> you get a ton of spam
* You dont reply (and your domain is unlocked) --> bye bye domain name

The e-mails are alledgely from some weasle looking for incorrect e-mails on domain registrations. Next they try to take your domain and have apparently gotten many via this technique.

Heard the guy is in Russia who's behind the scheme.

I think it's just someone looking for domains to buy and is casting quite a wide net.
