Verisign is sending out *snail mail* "hijack" attempts. And they are
*definitely* from Verisign.
We have also had a number of our domain registration clients asking us
if the Verisign notices they've gotten in snail and e-mail telling them
they need to "renew" their domains are legit. I don't know if there are
other people out there doing bogus Verisign emails, but I know the snail
mail is from them because I've seen the snail mail letters, and assumed
that there was an email disinformation campaign being waged
simultaneously.
