Contact the registrar, and explain the issue. It could be a mistake on thier part.

Whois info leads me to:
Sponsoring Registrar: R280-LRMS
which leads to :
www.sipence.com
Any suggestions?

Yes, they have been registering "free" .info for registrants who have the .com of the same name at eNom but without their permission.

I would suggest complaining to ICANN. They are clearly violating individual registrants' rights, and more seriously, open the latter to potential liability issues.

I think ID protecting is crucial nowadays.
I would rather call them (domain spammers!)
I'll rather fax ICANN about this issue.

Since they are using your details then you are the actual owner of that domain. Congrats!!. Request "forgot password" & change the dns entry of that domain.
