question about domain sell - GoFuckYourself.com

mikke · 06-07-2010, 05:22 AM

Hi,

Someone wanna buy my domain for really good price.. but..

Quote:

Before we can start a purchase process we need the following from you:

An officially certified domain appraisal, not older than 3 months. The domain valuation determines a fair selling price based on accurate analysis and will help us settle on a price we are both happy with.

If you already have an official appraisal for this domain, not older than 3 months, please forward the certificate to me. If not, you can get one from the leaders in the industry here : http://praisals.com/step1.php

When you have the appraisal, please forward it to me and we can start the transition process.

what do you think about it? i think its fraud for 99.9% ...
mail i received is not from praisals.com, but another domain..
but both domains has same dns server, also same registrar..

Got the same email a week ago. A guy named Davis, claiming to be a president of "big" development company (elitenethosting.com) wanted a domain of mine that is a typo of streamate.com, offered $5k , lol :-D

Then he sent me a fake forum url where they had "discussed" about domain appraisal services:
http://www.domainexplorer.org/Archive/92735216.htm

All mentioned urls had the same registrar (godaddy) and hidden whois.. what a strange coincidence. I told him to fuck off. Too bad I do not have the time to report him to godaddy.

Looks like scammers are working hard these days, there is already one scam thread in here.
