I received the following email today, a repeat of one I got a few days back and dismissed as bulshit: ( I changed the domain for privacy )

Thing is, I registered the domain through namecheap and as with all my other domains I've enabled the whoisguard on it, so I'm just curious as to why I've got this email. Just wondering if you guys think its legit and if I should give a fuck? Seems a bit vague to me.

from mail.notify-customer.com (69.64.153.133) by mailfoundry1.namecheaphosting.com (MAILFOUNDRY) id TZZIhqbBEd6jjAAw for dsdi21b93839df17d321aa.protect@whoisguard.com; Mon, 21 Sep 2009 15:13:34 -0000 (GMT)

Default MX for namecheap.com is mailfoundry.namecheap.com. Resolves to the same IP as mailfoundry1.namecheaphosting.com.

Looks legit.
I'd reply, but ask for a copy of the complaint first. It'd probably be a good idea to figure out who was behind the request.
 
I got that too. And as Shady suggested, I asked for a copy of the complaint and got this email back:

Hello,

eNom has successfully completed verification of your WHOIS contact information for your domain(s).

As such, no further action is necessary on your part.

Thank you for your prompt reply and attention to this matter.
