Domain name owners be aware of fraudulent Chinese domain name registration emails like the one below that came from the fake website "www.cnregistry-shanghai.org.cn".

Subject: CN domain and keyword

(It's very urgent, please transfer this email to your CEO. Thanks)

This is a formal email. We are the Domain Registration Service company in China. Here I have something to confirm with you. On July 16, 2018 , we received an application from Kaining Ltd requested "" as their internet keyword and China (CN) domain names (.cn, .com.cn, .cn, .org.cn). But after checking it, we find this name conflict with your company name or trademark. In order to deal with this matter better, it's necessary to send email to you and confirm whether your company is affiliated with this Chinese company or not?

Best Regards
