• I would be very suspicious of such an email. I have received an almost identical one, from Arrow Wang (brother?), with a changed company name and contact details.

  Dear ITIM Systems Pty Ltd team,
  
  We received a formal application from a company who is called Meiao Co.,Ltd www.meiaoinv.cn are applying to register " itim-systems" as their domain name and Internet keyword in China and also in Asia on Apr 14th 2008. During our auditing procedure we find out that the alleged Meiao Co.,Ltd has no trade mark, brand nor patent even similar to that word. As authorized anti-cybersquatting organization we hereby suspect the alleged Meiao Co.,Ltd to be a domain grabber. Hence we need you confirmation for two things,
  
  First of all, whether this alleged Meiao Co.,Ltd is your business partner or distributor in China.
  
  If the mentioned third party is your business partner or distributor in China please DO NOT reply. We will automatically confirm application from your business partner after this audit procedure.
  
  If the third party is not your business partner or distributor in China. We will blocked their application
  Secondly, whether you are interested in registering these domains. (The alleged Meiao Co.,Ltd will be entitled to obtain a domain not needed by original trademark owner.)
  
  This is a letter for confirmation.
  
  If you are not in charge of this please transfer this email to appropriate dept. Thanks for your cooperation
