We received one and our Director sent it to counsel for legal advice
first.

Subject: [SECURITY] E-mail from ARIN ref. Legacy Registration Services

We received a rather odd e-mail from ARIN.NET this week (excerpt below).
It's not clear to me what this is about.  Did anyone else received one?
Should we send it on to our legal Council? Ignore it? Apply for it?
Does it even apply to Colleges and Universities?

This is outside my domain of knowledge which, I admit, is growing
smaller by the hour (grin).
