It looks like a phishing email targeting people who own domain names at GoDaddy is making the rounds. This email was first reported on NamePros a week ago, and I also received the email over the weekend.
If people fall for a phishing email, they could have their domain names stolen and/or their GoDaddy-hosted websites compromised. Most domain registrars recommend using 2 factor authentication on all domain registrar accounts to enhance security. Some registrars also offer additional security features that can be implemented (such as DTVS at GoDaddy) to protect accounts even further.
One thing readers need to keep in mind is that phishing attempts tend to evolve and change over time. The senders could easily change their targets and attempt to impersonate eNom, Tucows, Network Solutions, or any other domain registry or even a domain registry.
If in doubt about the validity of an email, it is always best to call a domain registrar to confirm the email is legitimate.
