If you let people know the domain name, you might have more luck — e.g someone who works at the registrar may look into it, etc. Also, it seems surprising that this would be an **ICANN** verification message…
Domain providers often refer to them as an "ICANN verification" message. I am pretty sure it is because ICANN creates technical rules the registrars must follow. The domain registrar is the one responsible to complete the verifications and annual reminders, and makes the decision to suspend a domain. But your registrar must implement that verification program in order to follow ICANN technical rules which require a registrar to either suspend the domain or manually verify the information successfully within 15 days of certain actions, such as in case the annual Whois Data Reminder email message bounces with an error, or information was recently updated. Therefore, your domain registrars often title it an ICANN verification message. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/approved-with-specs-2013-09-17-en#whoi...
