The email is titled with an Internet domain name that I own plus the word expiration

Then

Final reminder: Domain Cancellation Notice

You have 1 domain name registration pending.

 

 

It continues

Failure to complete this order may result in the cancellation of this offer (making it difficult for your customers to locate you, using search engines on the web).

Now this clearly looks like my domain name is going to expire unless I click the link to renew it.

But it’s a scam. This scammer must check the dates of registration of domain names then take her chance just before the anniversary of that registration each year to see if the owner will fall for this scam.

If you click on the link you will be signed up for search engine optimisation – nothing to do with domain name registration.

The sending email address is rickmchan.com and the link goes to lastchancedomain.com

Do not be fooled.

If you have any experiences with scammers, spammers or time-waster do let me know, by email.
