I have just had this email. Is this genuine?
I ask this as Enom's DNS uses name-services.com (where this particular domain is held) but when you go to that site, it resembls nothing like Enom's site. What do you think? Anyone had anything similar from Enom? I would imagine this IS from Enom, but don't you think that the web page they are using is inappropriate given the possible uncertainty over internet security nowdays? Shouldn't the web page on www.name-services.com resemble the Enom page in some way?

I guess eNom INTENTIONALLY makes name-services.com a generic brand so clients of THEIR resellers can't tell that it's from eNom. ;)
