We received a similiar e-mail to this about a year ago but in better English, claiming someone wanted to register "transpressnz.com.cn" and did we want to do that first? When we asked what the cost was, the answer was 50 Euros ($US 56). Given that the standard price in the US for a domain name is about $12, it was obvious what their game was.
Unless you actually have a Chinese subsidiary, we recommending ignoring such messages.
Dear CEO,
(If you are not the person who is in
charge of this, please forward this to your CEO, because this is urgent. If this
email affects you, we are very sorry, please ignore this
email. Thanks)
We are a Network Service Company which
is the domain name registration center in China.
We received an application
from Huayi Ltd on October 31, 2016. They want to register " transpressnz " as
their Internet Keyword and " transpressnz .cn "、" transpressnz .com.cn " 、"
transpressnz .net.cn "、" transpressnz .org.cn " 、" transpressnz .asia " domain
names, they are in China and Asia domain names. But after checking it, we find "
transpressnz " conflicts with your company. In order to deal with this matter
better, so we send you email and confirm whether this company is your
distributor or business partner in China or not?

Couple of years ago the website my work is promoted on was hacked and domain name stolen from one page. Just by sheer chance I was browsing Google and saw my name come up and linked to a work I had never done. I decided to visit the page. It was telling everyone it was my work of a ship in Sydney, but it actually showed OTT offensive adult material .
I contacted the webmaster who lives in UK and he got Google to remove the page and we checked for any others.Given also families visit his site to see all types of history etc neither of us wanted that rubbish linked etc.
The link went back to China according to Google.
