A new domain scam is making the rounds, and it involves domains that were registered previously, but which were then dropped.
You let a domain drop, and someone registers it and sets it up for sale for a relatively low price, for example $499 dollars
At that point, as the previous owner, you get contacted by a third party (supposedly) that offers you a sum well above that price point, for example $1,499 dollars.
