I received an email recently from a domain registrar for China and ASIA domain names...
Dear Manager:
We are a Network Service Company which is the domain name registration center in Shanghai, China. On July,8th,2010, We received HUATAI Company's application that they are registering the name "weedguru" as their Internet Trademark and "weedguru.cn","weedguru.com.cn" ,"weedguru.asia"domain names etc.,It is China and ASIA domain names.But after auditing we found the brand name been used by your company. As the domain name registrar in China, it is our duty to notice you, so I am sending you this Email to check.According to the principle in China,your company is the owner of the trademark,In our auditing time we can keep the domain names safe for you firstly, but our audit period is limited, if you object the third party application these domain names and need to protect the brand in china and Asia by yourself, please let the responsible officer contact us as soon as possible. Thank you!
I checked out their website, and they appear, to my untrained eye, a proper domain registrar.
Now...is anyone qualified enough to explain to me the results of me standing by idle...????
For instance, will those domains, once registered, start appearing in google searches for 'weedguru'??????
any advice is appreciated,
cheers,

I am just starting to pursue more research into the registrar company, and am tending towards concluding that they are scam scum...
