We have recently become aware of a phishing scam targeting domain name customers of a small number of domain registrars including Network Solutions(R). We wanted to alert you of this situation. Phishing is the practice of luring unsuspecting Internet users to a fake Web site by using an authentic-looking e-mail in an attempt to steal passwords, account information or other sensitive data.
At this time, we know that fraudulent e-mails are being sent to some domain name customers, regardless who the registrar of record is, which include links to sites that look like networksolutions.com or other domain provider sites; however they are fake Web sites. These e-mails are attempting to capture login information. For more information and tips on identifying phishing scams, please visit the blog at:

If you believe you have received an e-mail of this type, have clicked on the link, and provided your login information, we recommend the following for security
purposes:
1. Log in to your account from the domain service you are registered at
2. Review your account information for accuracy
3. Choose a new password security question and answer
4. Change your password
