I hereby inform you about the domain appraisal fraud, few days ago i received an email:

Hello!
Our VIP client from Seoul (Korea) wants to purchase XYZ.com We have found your email via public WHOIS.
Please respond and confirm you are the legal owner so I can send you the details.

My name is Eun Jung Yoon. I work for Hostway - one of the leading hosting providers in South Korea.

I act on behalf of our VIP client (domain investor) and will help you to sell your domain. The buyer purchases several domains to generate traffic to his new web project. If you need a faster response please contact me in Telegram. My user name in Telegram: DNBroker (@dnbroker). Our commission is only 6 %. The commission is divided between you (3%) and the buyer (3%) and paid after you get the money.

The buyer offers $35000 USD in Litecoins or $34000 via International wire transfer/Western Union.

The payment to you will be made via escrow service to protect both parties during the transaction. You will get 50% before the domain transfer and 50% after.

To proceed with the sale, the bank of the buyer requires verification of compliance with Korean law and trademarks because he will run his startup in South Korea. Please don't worry. If you don't have it you can order it online. I will help you with instructions and will not leave you along with this.

According to his country law, the domain holder may lose domain if it has trademark conflicts or other legal restrictions. He is a professional investor and cannot afford to lose the money and domain and will send you the funds only after you send him a verification from an independent agency that makes legal verification in Korea. I hope you understand it.

The verification must include the following:

- The certification agency must be certified to verify domains in South Korea.
- Verification of compliance with Korean law and trademarks.
- The certificate must be up to date (issued during the last 30 days).
- Official copy of the verification in English and Korean.
- The certification agency must be authorized by the buyer and his bank.

We asked him if GoDaddy or Sedo appraisal certificates will work as verification for him. I'm not sure they have a license to verify domains in Korea. Now we are waiting for his answer.

We give him 738$ worth of bitcoins for appraisal, domain listing, and he wants 630$ more for clearance of bank statement so I will say that he will double cross his victim and manipulate him in a such a way that he steals his money. Then I investigate the site and found that he actually runs that site digirock.net.
If someone from FBI or ISP please help us to find the thief because he operates his business from I think so 2009 and his website is still running on google search engine.
