I got the above notice when trying to access my sites they took down all my sites because someone had made a complaint that I had some copy written material on one of my sites, The email was sent to an old address so I never got the message and didn't delete the data.Three days later I see this and contact godaddy only to find out that my ICANN information was not correct and was fined $20.00 on top of that there was nobody I could talk to in regards to the issue above I was forced to reply only by email. I promptly replied but however it still took 3 days to get my sites back up this was a total nightmare!!! my advise to anyone that encounters this issue is to make sure to get rid of the data thats offensive and write a statement similar to this and send it to godaddy: 


I, John Doe, under penalty of perjury, state that I will remove the offending content at [insert full
URL] promptly after the reactivation of my services.

/John Doe/
John Doe

that should speed up the processing, In my case I didn't have someone else article on my site it was a WordPress RSS feed news aggregator that caused the issue and posted some items from a celebrity site

Please feel free o leave some feedback if you have any additional information on this issue.
