Over the last hour I have received about 10 message purported to be from Godaddy, which is in actuality a phishing attack.
Like all phishing attempt the e-mail looks legit using Godaddy format, logos, etc, but of course are not real messages and under no circumstances should you click on the links contained in them.
Here is the body of the message:

Did you look into the headers, or the domain they are using in the links to find who is behind it?
Thanks for the heads up. I didn’t get any yet, but I’m sure they will come.
