Catched.com Experience

[DaveX]

I came across a site called Catched.com.

Has anyone used it? Any feedback?

It says it's in Beta.

Let me know.

I started using it. They were able to catch some Tld's and pushing all of them to auctions.
Seems like shill bidding to me.

Thanks, that's what I was afraid of. Any other feedback community?

ALL the domains that are caught are sent to auction.
Is this true @Catched.com ?

I caught a couple of names with them. None were sent to auction. Overall a very positive experience.

Thanks for the update.

Hi @Primary Names , First at all, sorry for the late answer, I had not received the notification of your query.
The domains only go to auction if there is more than one interested party, we have many opportunities given the large number of cctlds and gtlds that we offer. and of course we have many many domains assigned directly without auction.

Any questions you can contact us at [email protected]

Does it work at all? When I try to search stuff, I get a notification:

Ooof

But the catched.com advertising banner is still there in right column, above Chat.

Since there is no official Catched.com thread I might as well post this here.

A few days ago my AV (Kaspersky) started giving alerts for all domains that redirect to Catched.com (but not Catched.com itself) like this:

@Catched.com ,

can you please check what's going on? it's better if you contact Kaspersky directly to sort this out as it doesn't look good at all.

 

[Catched.com]

Hi @Hypersot, good morning, you know the domain name you use to be redirected to? that will help a lot to check what happens. thanks

 

[Catched.com]

@tupungato hi sir, sorry for the trouble; our account was some time down. Did you solve the situation with your login? Please let us know.

Hi, just replied to the conversation.

Please note that the block happens on catched.com and not on the domain in question.
I have posted a screenshot of the redirection that happens and when exactly it gets blocked by the AV (ie. when it tries to reach Catched.com)

@Hypersot Thank you

 

[golan]

I got a few domains there. Not many but quite ok ones

 

[Larry_Luc]

Thanks

I see all domains caught there are sent to auction, even when there is only one interested in the domain.

 

[Nodoxy]

They still claim they don't send domains to auctions when there is only 1 user who is interested in the domain. Here are 3 screenshots of current domains in auction that only have 1 user interested in the domain.

They also trick some auctions to increase the price using "hidden" users. I have seen domains that were supposed to be sold for $1000-2000 in auction that after 1 year were not renewed, which makes not sense.

I stopped using this platform a while ago. Nothing personal, just pointing out one more dirty player in the domain industry.

 

[Catched.com]

Dear @Nodoxy, good evening, and thank you for coming here; please let clarify that these auctions with just one bid are RE-auctions. In those auctions, the payment was not received in the first auction, and the system relists the auction with just one user as the user who failed with the payment was blocked.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any concerns about the system logic.
