A customer of ours today reported getting spammed with renewal e-mail 
messages from Verisign as well; his domain doesn't expire for two months, 
and has never been registered with Verisign/NSI (it was not a transfer to 
us -- it was a new registration through us almost two years ago).

I asked him to forward complete copies of the messages to me, but he had 
unfortunately deleted them. However, he seemed quite sure that they were 
from Verisign, and that it was by e-mail.

Hmmmm. If this is actually happening, it would be useful if someone would 
post the full message, including the headers. Perhaps it's some idiot 
Verisign reseller spamming.
