Hello,

Folks might want to keep alert for domain name hijacking attempts
through phishing, as discussed in more detail in the threads at
DomainState:

where at least 1 person was already victimized. These attempts tend to
rise around long weekends, and we're heading into the Labour Day
weekend in the USA/Canada. Registrants who monitor their names
constantly might notice a theft right away, but the criminals feast on
clients of resellers who are more "average" in their attention towards
their domains, and might not notice their names were stolen for weeks,
or even longer.

Have a safe holiday!

Sincerely,

George Kirikos
