I am posting this because a number of translators use this web hosting/e-mail service. Customers of other web hosting service may also be receiving similar fake notices.
I have two domains registered with a German-based internationally active web hosting company. Today I received this notice (identifying information deleted):

Dear Sir/Madam,
The following domain names have been suspended for violation of the (company name) Abuse Policy:
(my name, name of domain, registrar)
Multiple warnings were sent by (name of company) Spam and Abuse Department to give you an opportunity to address the complaints we have received.
We did not receive a reply from you to these email warnings so we then attempted to contact you via telephone.
We had no choice but to suspend your domain name when you did not respond to our attempts to contact you.
Click here and download a copy of complaints we have received.
Please contact us for additional information regarding this notification.
Sincerely,

If you've received this, you should forward the e-mail, together with the full header, to
abuse@(name of REAL hosting company).com
It is exactly as it says here. They said they had called me, but that is a lie. They offer a link so you click to get more info. I reported them to authorities. The funny thing is that their address is from wordpress, but I clicked reply and the email returned.
