Just received

Dear Customer,

It's that time of year again. ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)
annually requires that all accredited registrars (like GoDaddy) ask their domain
administrators/registrants to review domain name contact data, and make any changes necessary to
ensure accuracy. According to our records you are the ADMINISTRATIVE CONTACT for one or more
domains registered at GoDaddy, Inc. as of September 3rd, 2008.

To review/update your contact data, simply:
+ Go to MailFilterGateway has detected a possible fraud attempt from "www.godaddywh0is.com" claiming to be https://www.mya.godaddy.com/Login.asp?

Next, simply review the contact information for each domain name.

If,your domain contact information is inaccurate, you must correct it. (Under ICANN rules
and the terms of your registration agreement, providing false contact information can be grounds
for domain name cancellation.) To review the ICANN policy, visit: http://www.icann.org/whois/wdrp-registrant-faq.htm

Should you have any questions, please email us at support@godaddy.com or call our customer support
line at (480) 505-8877.

Thanks for your attention and thank you for being a GoDaddy, Inc. customer.

Sincerely,
GoDaddy.com, Inc. Domain Support

Eventually after many emails

Thank you for pointing out what appears to be a phishing site.

Fraud Department has to forward your complaint to the Abuse Department? Sounds like too many departments to me.

I've not had any serious issues with GoDaddy that couldn't be quickly solved. I can call or email my account manager and they take care of any issues right away. Obviously this isn't always the case though.

Real GoDaddy emails have Bob Parson's ear-studded face all over them.
