Beware of Domain Registrar Phishing

We have recently been made aware that several of you have received email messages that look like they are from Network Solutions stating that your domain name information is invalid and your domain will expire “soon”. These messages are phishing attempts and should be examined carefully. Network Solutions is typically very consistent about never springing an expiration email about a domain at the last minute, you will usually receive 90, 60, 30 days warning messages. Urgency is a red flag indicator of a phishing attempt in an email. You can read more about phishing news in general at CUSecure.org, or the more about the specifics of the Network Solutions phishing on their blog.
