I dont think it was, I have gotten those same emails before I believe that the company is affiliated with GoDaddy and handles the private registrations for their names. Dont be alarmed.

so that gives the right to send emails that I have registrated the domains with THEM ? and ask to use the same Account passwords ? something does not fit here :?:

O..K so what gives them the right to ask for passwords ? and who gaves them the right to send emails , i did not register with THEM , i registered with Godaddy , even if it is an affiliate website , i dont see that this is right
 
Domain by proxy is Go Daddy's whois protection service.

Did you order whois protection or did it come free with this order?
