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.dshn-cloud.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.

This "Jerry Chan" sure is busy! Got the same exact wording as in the dshn-cloud.cn example above, but from a different address (@mopoip.org.cn) and with a different Chinese company. Boilerplate for sure.

Interesting that the initial email starts out soft - no direct ploy for money. Probably comes later, if you engage. Sneaky b*st*rds...

Thanks for this post. I'll bookmark your site for the next time I need to confirm a hoax.

Slight variation, but basically the same initial step in the scam:

"Dear Mr/Mrs,

We are a domain registrar. Today we received an application from Shirley Tam International. They apply for registration of %domain name% Brand Name and several %domain name% domain names associated with your company name. We are not sure about your company's relationship with this company.

Now, we are processing this application. We need to confirm whether this company is affiliated with your company. If so, we will continue the next step of registration. If not, please let me know as soon as possible in order that we can deal with this problem in time. Thanks for your time.
