I got an email with the following signature:

It was to Alex Narro and I was cc'd along with a few other people...

Here is the whole email:

Dear Narro Alex,

In order to review your application, we require some form of verification that you are the owner of the domains you submitted. To faciliate the reviewing of your application, please send us a snapshot of your portfolio.

How to send a snapshot:

Snap Shots of portfolios are beneficial to maintain as, frequently, they are necessary to prove ownership. In cases where applicant ownership of certain domains is unclear, we request for verification by the applicant. In order to verify ownership, please sign into your registrar and open a list of your domains. On your keyboard press "Print Screen," copy it onto a program that the image can be pasted onto, and save it as a jpeg/gif file.

Important: Using the registered e-mails for the domains, please attach the jpeg/gif and TrafficZ will review your application once ownership is verified. Please be sure the snapshot includes your name or e-mail in the snapshot itself. Snap shots that have been overly edited will not be accepted.

Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions. I am here to assist you.

Best Regards,

Deborah​

And this was a reply to another email from this Alex person with a huge list of domains...

Is this some kind of scam to send out huge lists of domains that are for sale or something?

i would contact trafficz asap as someone is applying for a trafficz account using your name - just like it happened dozens of times with several other dnf members ( including myself) in the past -contact trafficz by phone or deborah asap.

Thanks for the info, I will contact them asap...
 
yup - just went through this myself - was a guy in China pretending to be me; trying to open up a trafficz account.
 
Yes I just got an email response from Trafficz:

Thank you for your response. Someone recently attempted to use your domains to apply for an account. At TrafficZ, we take fraud very seriously. To insure that you were not in communication with the applicant and that the domains had not been transferred through a recent sale, we contacted you to verify ownership. The applicant has been denied an account.
