Possible Domain Name Dispute
Hi
I recently recieved an email which i have pasted below by someone representing the ANIC (Asia Internet Network Information Center). with reference to registering another domain name with our current keywords (company name) cottamhorseshoes.com
I have written to them giving details our the fact that we are a registered UK Ltd Company and was incoropratred in 1926 and so have 80 years of trading history and have owned cottamhorseshoes.com since 1996 and so have lengthy prior use
Is this email for real or is it likely to be a scam trying to scare us into buying up every cottamhorseshoe. suffice through them etc
Suggestions and ideas welcomed

Dear Arthur Cottam & Co Horseshoes Ltd,
We are one of the Domain Name Dispute Resolution (DNDR) Committee members authorized by ANIC(Asia Internet Network Information Center).
Now we have something urgent need to confirm with your company.
On the July 20, 2008, we received the WhitefamilyNV company 's application that they applied to register the " cottamhorseshoes " as their Internet Brand and Asia Pacific domains. Considering these domains and internet brand would involve the intellectual property of your company’s name,patents,trademarks,and copyright, and in order to avoid confusion between them, so we inform you urgently.If you considered these domains and internet brand are important to you and there was necessary to protect them by registering them first, please let someone who is responsible for trademark or domain name contact me as soon as possible.Thank you for your cooperation.
I am waiting for your urgent reply,
Kind Regards,
Dr. Ballack Wang
Chief Law Officer,Senior Consulting Director
