Is this a legit email? Or am I being scammed?

[MJHansen]

Hey guys,
So I got this email from contactprivacy@contactprivacy.com saying that someone has visited contactprivacy.com in order to try to get a hold of me. Then the guy in the email says he is interested in buying my site. Is this normal?

I'm interested in purchasing your site. I've been trying to get a hold of you but so far to no avail. Please get back to me, otherwise I'll have assume my emails aren't making it through and I'll keep trying to get in touch with you.

Paranoid much?

He just wants to discuss buying your domain. I don't recall seeing him ask for your credit card info... =P

If you have a privacy protection on your domain this is normal.

Don't give away personal information (obvious). But contact the guy if you're interested in selling your site.

If you're weary about it, just conduct the transaction through Escrow.com.

Okay thanks guys. I will for sure keep escrow in mind as well.
