Does anyone know what this message from DROA to the Admin contact (below) is really about?  The good client says that he's never responded to any DROA emailings, snail mailings, etc.  This is not one of those domain names that someone would want to try to steal.  The message smacks of some funny business by DROA.

I get mayhbee 20-30 snail mail letters from these jerks every year, some 
listing over 50 or more  of my domains.  This is an unsolicited scam 
letter to try and get people's money at $35 per domain, through a 
transfer.  The rake in about 140,000 extra dollars every week from 
unsuspecting naive companies and individuals
