It starts with this...

This is a letter to confirm the registration of your company name ragezone, please read it carefully. Our center received an application from Konnay International Ltd and they apply to register ragezone as their brand name and some top-level domain names. We found the name is same as your used name. I don't know whether or not you have authorized them.

Evidently a scam, google shows so and all contact information relating shows and thus I figure I'm going to try and get some fun out of this. My retort;

No we did not authorize this.

Now, they reply with a list of URLs that they'll register and trademark for me but of course I'm dubious and thus ask for confirmation that they are a real person , company and say the following;

To confirm legitimacy can you send me a picture of you holding up a sign of ragezone thanks.

And I'm greeted with the following!

Now, I'll try and get more stuff out of them, any suggestions?
