Many of my friend suggested me to post this on namepros so others will less likely to be scamed by shane.

So on 2016-09-26 and 2016-09-27 he bought 374 cvcv.in names and 471 cvcv.in names all together 845 .in names together. (these are random cvcv.in)
together he paid me on paypal 5805 usd.

I pushed the domain to him, then everything is fine. the deal was made through whatsapp chat.
deal closed.
then I saw him selling them on .in markect group, flipped some for higher price.

until 27the decenmber when i log in to my paypal to make another purchase, i see paypal refunded 5805 back to him, then i look up my email, i saw paypal disput which i completed missed.
buyer claim reason: NOT AS DESCRIBED! (this is after he sold and transfer out some of those)

I did not know paypal had this 3 months rules where buyer can claim the money back, and becuase i do not log on paypal so often and get xxx amount of emails every days, so i missed the window that i could have argued with paypal. but well lesson learned.

Some infomation of shane so other can avoid being scamed by him

good news is after I provided all the evidence to the registrar, the registrar moved the remaining (ones he did not sold or transfer out) to my account, so at least i got something back.

Becuareful when using paypal,and becuareful when you trade any domain that was processed by shane.

During the process of getting the unsold domains by shane, I had great help from .in whatsapp group, so special thx who provide information and also special thx to shiva , kemji, alexa and indy who tried to contact shane for me, but he went dark, not picking his cell phone, does not respond back on whatsapp nor linkedin.

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
So he went from being a self-proclaimed marketing genius and domainer to making near minimum wage working for Uber? Only one reason someone would flee the former to the later would be to get out before getting caught for something nefarious

If a man has no money, he has his honor. If a man has no honor, he has nothing. Sad.

One time I won some money in a contest at an event. I went to the restroom and set the envelope of cash aside while I took a leak. I forgot and left the money there. Couple minutes later I realized and went back but it was gone. I knew most of the people there and couldnt believe someone took it.

A couple of months later a guy approaches me and hands me a roll of cash. He told me that at the time he was in terrible financial straits and when he found the enveope it was literally like a gift from God. He apologized profusely and asked me to forgive him. I did.

I hope SB will someday right his wrongs.

Yeah instead SB went on twitter and laughed at his victim.. Not a comparable situation I am afraid.

Every day he has an opportunity to try to mend broken fences. Its never too late to make it right and ask for forgiveness.

Well I didn't want to miss anything, or pass judgment without knowing all the facts, but seems quite clear that OP 12no3 was in the right here and that Shane Bellone went wrong.

I also found warnings against Shane Bellone dating back to 2015, which this blog was referenced in this NP thread too:

Shane Bellone has now been reported to UBER, UBER and everyone that rides with him needs to know who he really is.

He's an Uber driver now? Although, I'm not sure what he did here - in the world of domaining - has any bearing on his driving skills. (n):xf.grin: Seems off topic and irrelevant to me.

I also noticed Shane Bellone has hired brandyourself.com to help clean up his online reputation. Good luck with that.

Lol - if that service outranks the negatives I'd love to see the results.

Can I get a super quick short summary lol

Super short summary would be, "Shane is apparently a very very, BAD man!" (in the world of domaining)

Just read the first post, as far as I could determine, nothing substantial was added after that first post, and I read all pages carefully to see if any viable defenses were offered for Shane, and they were not.

Well it's like, I used to see this certain city wide plumber's vans broken down a lot on the side of the road, but this didn't mean they were bad plumbers.


I think I'd rather see Shane make an honest living Uber driving than have to resort to more domain rip offs.

That's BS. Money doesn't equate to respect. That's really shallow to think if you do

I think you misunderstood what I said. The point was that money doesn't make a person. Honor does.
