Do you mean you received a "please approve this transfer" sort of message 
from Network Solutions (in which case nothing will happen if you simply 
ignore it), or was it an actual transfer-in-progress notification from 
OpenSRS?

If it's the former, I can't see that it's ever harmful, although it's 
certainly annoying. If you want revenge, take comfort in the fact that 
person has probably already paid NSI $35 and is unlikely to be able to 
get it back without spending hours on the phone.

If it's the latter, it is potentially harmful, and something is seriously 
wrong with the system NSI is using to approve transfers -- that needs to 
be brought to someone's attention if that's the case.
