Today I found that all my domains at Afternic were removed (about 320) and only 17 domains that are not mine are listed!!
I checked the notifications inside Afternic and there are hundreds of messages saying "We found a duplicate listing - Your domain(s) are already actively listed" in each message several strange domains that I never owned are listed.
It seems someone uploaded thousands of domains to my account using excel sheet upload from which only 17 were listed, and in the process my portfolio was overwritten and all my listed domains were removed!!
Someone may have hacked my account, or somehow it might be internal bug in Afternic that resulted in importing someone else sheet list into my account.
I find it hard to believe that my account was hacked because the password I use I don't use it anywhere, also who wants to hack an Afternic account and for what purpose or benefit?!
@Joe Styler your advice will be appreciated.
