PocketDomain.com : Please Transfer Immediately .. Anyone received it?

[EG.domains]

I received this email from [email protected] few minutes ago about domain I won on NameJet.

Dear Registrant of:


****.com


We are sorry to inform you that the registrar Alfena, or IgniteLA, or Yenkos, can no longer maintain the above domain name. We apologize for the inconvenience, however you must transfer your domain name to another registrar within the next seven (3) days. As you have been using the enom.com registrar panel to access these domains up until this point we suggest a transfer to enom.com will the smallest hassle. Failure to transfer your domains within this period of time means that your domain(s) will be transferred directly to enom.com as a batch transfer which means you will lose access to your domain, so please do not wait and transfer now.

regretfully,

Alfena Management
IgniteLA Management
Yenkos Management

When I try to unlock this domain at ENOM I get this msg :

Failed to get Registrar Lock Status

Anyone received this email about any of your domains?

 

[Foolsgold]

Yeah...I just got one too - not sure what to make of it...

 

[PocketDomain.com]

The emails *ARE LEGIT*!

We *ARE* disconnecting from the COM/NET drop pools.

The way drop pools work is one entity manages the drop *AND* the domains they catch. In other words if you check Internic you will see your domains *ARE NOT* registered at the registrar you are managing your domain at, they *ARE* registered at one of our registrars.

Again, this is how the Drop Catch Pools work, and how things get "cleaned up" when a registrar pulls out of the catch pool.

General Questions may be asked here, however specific questions should be directed to us at:

[email protected]

Which is where we sent thus email from. We have not finished sending emails out, there are MANY more on their way.

Thank you all for your cooperation, and sorry for the hastle. It's an unfortunate hastle for all of us.

Received a reply to my support ticket ...

Thank you for contacting Technical Support. I'll be happy to assist you with this issue. I am unaware of an issue.

We have forwarded this ticket to our senior technical support staff to research further. Depending on what we find it might be a few days before we have a solution or additional questions for you. I have requested a resolution as quickly as possible to minimize your wait time.

I will keep you informed of our progress, and will get back with you as soon as I have some answers. Thank you for your patience.

Seems like they need to get someone that speaks English to translate and write a proper email.

This may help and explain. Looks like enom are holding people's domains to ransom ?;
This below is reply from enom to one of my domains, not one for which I
have an email for though;
Hello,

We are still attempting to get in contact with this Registrar in regards to
changing the whois information on this domain. However if you intend on
renewing this domain in the future, if you were to renew the domain now
this would effectively move the domain into the eNom cred directly and
would then reflect the correct whois information as it would be updated
directly by us.

Please let me know if you would like to continue to await a response from
parava or renew this domain.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions regarding
this matter. Thank you for your continued partnership, we appreciate
you working with us.


Regards,

(Enom)

Charles PM sent to you by way. Thanks for your quick help by emails.

And please note *OUR REGISTRARS* are *NOT* involved with "bad whois".

Our registrars provide *EXACTLY* what is shown in enom's registrantion database, while some other drop pool registrars are not doing this.

John, It was a pleasure speaking to you on the phone.

If anyone else would like to speak to me, just send me a PM.

Thanks!

 

[Foolsgold]

please let me know what will happen if we take no action.

will we lose our domains? will they be transferred to enom?

 

[PocketDomain.com]

Why would you want to do nothing?

Anybody unable to get their domains out *FOR ANY REASON* please contact me and we will help you out.

 

[PocketDomain.com]

Please note:

It looks like people are now able to perform transfers. If you had a problem before please try again and let me know if you are still having problems.

Thank!

PLEASE NOTE:

I've just disconnected our registrar ALFENA from ENOM a few minutes ago.

Disconnection of IGNITELA and YENKOS are being delayed.

If you have any domains in ALFENA you will *NOT* be able to manage them anymore via your enom admin panel. Fortunately there are very few domains left.

THANK YOU ALL for helping us with the disconnection and transfering your domains out.

If you have any domains in ALFENA just send us and EMAIL and we will assist you in transfering them out. Please note however that the ENOM admin panel shold still show the correct auth code so you should be able to transfer to any other registrar (except enom) without our assistance. But if you need it just ask!

Thanks!
