www.cloudtech.org.cn - it is a Fake CN and ASIA Domain Name Registration Website

Website or domain name owners be aware of fraudulent Chinese domain name registration email messages like the one below that came from the fake website "www.cloudtech.org.cn". The fraudulent email messages should not be responded to, especially with personal or financial information. And, the instructions in the same fraudulent email messages should not be followed. Every month, thousands of these email messages are sent out by scammers to trick website owners into paying them for a fraudulent service, which the scammers claim will be used to purchase their Chinese (.CN) domain names.

Hello, here I leave another one of the mentioned emails so that you have it in mind:

I have received one of these emails and responded saying they cannot use my domain name. Now I realise this is a scam. Have I endangered myself?

Thanks.
