Phish? Re: .NZ would like 5 minutes of your time
It's an email apparently from one party (NZRS), apparently sent by a second party (my registrar), via a third party (mscv.net) with a link to a fourth party (surveymonkey.com), which seems classic phishing. On the other hand it "looks quite legit". If it is legit, am I right in thinking it's a bad way to go about it? Any comments from participants? Richard

The survey is legit, registrars opt-in to send it to their customers and we get the answers. However, we didn't suggest any particular way for registrars to distribute the survey, which leads you to think that might not be legitimate.
If it is legit, am I right in thinking it's a bad way to go about it?
Any comments from participants?
This is our first attempt to collect information this way, definitely this kind of point will be taken into account next time. Cheers,

Thanks Sebastian, I guess the lack of other responses suggests it's not generally viewed as badly as I thought :-) Richard
