I have received an email fro this address today [do\_not\_reply@name-controls.com](mailto:do_not_reply@name-controls.com) form Elements Platform. As it clearly states and is signed off Elements Platform just want to check this is legitimate before doing verification. @differentdan TIA

Hey @PMUK
It’s legit, it’s for your domain name transfers.
You’ll want to verify the email or the domain registrar can suspend the domains until the verification occurs.

The `p.....@Mac.com` one.
Always good to confirm in this day and age, feel free to let us know anytime you get an email that seems suspicious so we can confirm if it’s legit or not. 🙂
