For several years, I've been getting a few of these for one or another of
the domains I have registered (snail mail; no listed fax here). I shred
them.

OTOH, I've now had two clients lose their domain name (I didn't originally
register the domains). One opted to change to a new domain name, and the
other had to pay an outrageous ransom.
