The domain name www.starspangled200.org used to be a site owned by the State Of Maryland that commemorated the war of 1812 . The state even went as far as putting the URL on about 800,000 license plates. But here is the news......apparently a Filipino online gambling site got a hold of the...

I participated in the auction for the shieldvpn.com domain name on Dynadot today. To pass the "bidder 12" proxy bid, I made bids in increments of $100 each. I finally gave $1011.11 and the system accepted it as the highest bid, after which the auction was over on my side. However, the...

Absolutely, some type of verification appears critically needed at this point. The question is, though, that in this instance from the original poster, the Nameservers for the domainin question are pointed to DAN (according to lookup.icann.org). So, it remains unclear whether this is a...

It's very saddening to hear that even the previous issue, with others listing your domains, was not corrected at Afternic. When you raised attention to this matter before, you raised attention to what turned out to be apparently a very significant problem there. You were "spot on." So...

Almost a month ago, didn't you request that they remove a large number of the fake listings that you found? So, after a month, only one of those listings no longer appears? That is really sad, if that is the case. And, by the way, thank you so much for having had the courage to speak up about...

Afternic, by its lack of response to these issues, is indicating that the company itself appears to condone these actions. Are they promoting Domain Frontrunning?! Is this part of their affiliate marketing business plan? Perhaps these are not rogue sellers, but actual dedicated business...

Escrow.com certainly sounds like a great way to build trust between both parties. Thanks for sharing your perspective as a broker.

Yes, but even if you are an Eagle Scout and priest or imam, how can both parties be absolutely certain you are acting with integrity. Would Escrow.com seems to be one of the best options to add, to allow for actual third-party independent verification? Or do you somehow manage to make the...

Well, on the last response I had from Afternic customer support, there appears to be no definite timeline for the implementation of more verification. Why aren't they responsive immediately to this blatant issue? They suggested, after removing the fake domain listings, to now list my...

Maybe, someday after DAN makes the verification mandatory, I'd be delighted to list with them again. If Sedo and Daaz can mandate the verifications, I'm sure DAN and Afternic can do it as well.

So has Dan actually mandated verification at this point? There was talk about using NS3 for verification purposes. Would the txt verification be better, if they haven't added this yet? To their credit, they did at least reportedly ban the culprits doing the nefarious listings. That was...

Agree. The opening post here indicated the question of whether anyone had been scammed by a broker. Maybe an even more important question now is what brokerages, if any, are supporting full transparency? Are there any brokerages that now offer such reassurances? It seems to be an...

Sure, it's easy to confuse the two. There apparently is supposed to be a simple solution with Namecheap. They suggested delisting the domain from Afternic, and then resubmitting it. That is supposed to then trigger a second approval for Fast Transfer. Then, siimply don't approve the second...

This is perhaps a new twist to the domain front running scheme. The creative individuals involved might be monitoring auctions for a quick turn around profit with $0 invested up front. If someone makes an offer on the fraudulent listing at Afternic, the spurious buyer could try to then...

Dear NamePros Friends, Is there anybody here among who is from PayPal management? I see no help with communication with their support no more. I sold product using PayPal. Anything seemed fine. Released product after money came. Perfect deal I thought. Then, 1 week later, PayPal informed me...
