Am I in trouble?

[gramathy2]

I just received an offer on a domain name and I did some research on the buyer and it looks like he is a lawyer, potentially a TM lawyer...
I didn't think anything of the domain name when I reg'd it, because it seems to be very generic. But i looked in more detail today and there might be a TM issue.
Basically my name has "online" in front of a TM'd site's name, but that which happens to be generic.
Let's say my site is "onlinediscountcars.com" (not really the name) and "discountcars" (made-up) is a website and TM...

Am I in trouble?
why would this lawyer offer to buy my name (it was through NameDrive, all I got was his email)...and not come to me directly through WhoIs?

Worst case scenario, what would happen w/ this?
Any chance I can just give them the name if they file UDRP?

The offer was actually made through NameDrive, and i accepted it. Which they say is a "binding contract", but all they do is give you the buyers email. So I have emailed the guy-- but not heard back, nor have I heard back from NameDrive...

So I am not really sure what else to do.

Thanks everyone for their comments on this one

What happened finally?

I was watching this thread, but never got to read the finale

...2. You have to have a site or service that is confusing the other brand...

Errr... actually, the no-no would instead be thwarting the main brand (the one surfers would be searching for on your site) by linking to advertising of the other brand.

(Getting some other competing brand confused would actually be a good thing.)
