ATTORNEY.MOBI Illegal Auction?

WORDSWORTH · 11-19-2006, 06:57 AM

I typed in attorney.mobi yesterday, to be greeted by the following message:

------------------------ATTENTION------------------------
THE DOMAIN NAME ATTORNEY.MOBI WAS AUCTIONED ILLEGALLY BY SEDO. WE HAVE INFORMED SEDO ABOUT THIS.
THE AUCTION IS UNDER QUESTION & CORRESPONDANCES ARE GOING ON WITH SEDO.
WE ARE NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT AUCTION!

------------------------ATTENTION------------------------

It may not have made over $20k after all.

I couldn't find a trademark for Attorney, I don't think it would be allowed anyway.

TEAS: in general, where a term is generic, the term itself must be kept available for all to use.

Maybe the seller was illegally bidding on their own domain, or they didn't actually own the domain.
Who knows!!!???
