Is this a new type of spam I've not seen before tonight:

Subject: Domain Access Request

"Dear Secure Certificate Customer,

We have received a Certificate Signing Request for the following domain: www.domainname.com.

Our query of the Whois database returned your name as the administrator for the domain in the certificate request.

In order to verify the validity of this request and that it was submitted by the entity to which the domain in the request is registered, please signify your final approval or disapproval of the certificate request by clicking the link below.
" I'm scared to click on the link either way.

I never (knowingly) requested a "Secure Certificate" from GoDaddy though I just moved a few domains there.

The origin of the email says it came from "mesa2.secureserver.net" which I do not recognize.

Anybody else received one of these?

============

One additional thing -- the domain isn't even at GoDaddy.
