It's sad how many people call for scams, that are clearly scams, like this?

How many companies actually send out an EMAIL asking you for your password?

Youd have to be pretty stupid to fall for this one.

Let's assume you do fall for it...once you find out the domain was transferred out of your account. Isn't there anything that can be done? Since it was technically a stolen domain.
