Using tiktok in domain name and thinking you will get away? It can get you in deep trouble. Better remove the site before you have to pay hefty price for it.

cmmon guys...
Ok he used the tiktok name with another extension, if they trademarked this name why the fuck they don't took all extensions? this is one.
And another one, since there is by law full privacy on the domains how the fuck they found out his email.
Man even if this is real and legal approach if you don't made nothing illegal on your domain you can fight them back.

Guys, I don't believe that this is legit for a few reasons. As already said, the domain was already down before the email was even sent. A legit company would have noticed this or they are truly incompetent in what they are doing.
"to deactivate the domain name within three (3) working days from your receipt of this notice in order to prevent further action taken against you and your company."
Persoanlly I believe some scammers want the expired domain because they believe it has some value, that's all. They can fake where the email comes from, they can even fake the signature, as a developer I know how this can be done. The server the email was sent from is related to namecheap and namecheap isn't exactly a registrar huge companies go for. It's a highly used registrar by blackhatters, scammers and so on.
They even attached a document which is signed by "legal counsel Jingping Dong". I mean, that name sounds way to funny to be legit and could be found on the web easily.
They haven't even contacted the hosting where the domain was on before even if it's super easy to trace it back what has way more success on a takedown than sending out some email to a random whois protection. Of course it can be legit in the end, but there is just to much off and I'm almost certain someone just tried really really hard. Anyway, just calm down since there are not many ways they can get me so it's an interesting thing to share.

Where did you register it? Did you use your real address/name with the domain provider? Also did you use your real payment details or a stealth account?
If you bought and provided real infos you can message them, sent them a seperate email (dont reply on this one) and ask them for more information, then look if they actually reply.
If you bought it with fake infos/stealth account you can just ignore it and keep going until your domain/host will eventually take it down

How can it be phishing when there's no link request or call to action of any sort?

Pretty much stealthed everything to a high degree. They could get my email which is linked to a paypal account registered on a company which doesn't exist anymore but is linked to my bank accounts. Everything is not 100% save but good enough for an expired "trademark domain infringement".

You mentioned there's an attached document. Did you download this document and scan it by any chance?
How you know it hasn't launched a script on your system?
