Got called yesterday from a guy who said he was with Directnic. Said their mail server was having issues and was checking to see if I was getting my mails.

In all these years, never been called by them.

Anyone else. i just found it odd.

Did they call from Nigeria and asked for your bank account no?

Don't give them any ideas.

Didn't ask for passwords, usernames or anything. Just checking if I was getting their mails. Most odd.

Sounds very fishy honestly. Someone checking the phone number me thinks.

I do believe that's what hackers call social engineering.

Be careful.

That's what I was thinking as well. Checking to see if my account info was correct. Maybe a hater wanting to steal one of my domains.

Nice try hater.

Have you phoned/contacted DirectNic to see if it was legit?
