Earlier today, domain industry blogger Andrew Allemann posted an article about a phishing scam email with the following “From” and “Subject” text.
From: abuse@[registrar-domain-name]
Subject: Domain [redacted.COM] Suspension Notice
Multiple versions of this phishing email were sent to domain owners, each using a different registrar name. One version used abuse@above.com as the “From” email address and referenced Above.com in the body of the email.
If you received any version of this phishing email, please do not click the link.
Whenever you receive a suspicious email, always check the Return Path details in the email header. And always hover over any links to see where they are pointed. These details will confirm that the email is not from the company indicated.
In addition, please feel free to call, email or chat with us if in doubt about any email you have received with our company name in the return email address and/or in the body of the email. Your account privacy and security are top priorities for us, so we are happy to receive any inquiries.
Kind regards,
David Warmuz
