Be very careful of an appraisal scam: fastdomainsales.com

Languillon · 11-11-2004, 06:09 AM

I just avoided a domain appraisal scam from a guy so called Michael Murphy for now, wanting to buy your domain but after appraisal, and trusting only fastdomainsales.com and hollywooddomainsales.com, two fake sites!
Be careful.

Lots of scammy history with that one. Just try searching for "appraisal scam" within this forum, and you'll see. I'm glad you didn't fall for it!

Every day i read the same thread about the same guy - the one and only mike murphy.

Surely there must be better ways for him to spend his days apart from searching out domainers with names for sale and corresponding with hundreds of potential victims.

What must he earn?? And I wonder what his conversion rate is? Bet he doesnt get 5 victims a day. And at what, $25 a scam. great, $125 a day with the risk of imprisonment forever hanging over his shoulder.. He cant be the brightest tool in the toolbox for a, there are easier ways to earn more money and b, less illegal ways in which to do so!

If only people would do something constructive with that time... It would probably take less effort to work as a business person / secretary at a company than to try and scam people 24/7...
