There should be something like "NPxchange™ cheap escrow for domains service"

Sorry to hear about that. Just to let you know, the negative balance will probobbly have to be paid by you. I had a negative before and just ignored, than I got a call from collections.

Maybe try to write to your registar to get the domain back.

Man I was in this mess 3 times. and right now I still have one window open with paypal's resolution center and I am providing the tracking info.

I lost $900 to this kind of scammers.

Now I don't know what to do.

It would be very nice of you if someone can help me. I also got same emails from paypal about someone using farud creti card to pay me. And now it is over a month with 34 days past I don't know what can i do to this scammers.

This is the exact reason why I NEVER use PayPal with people from India, Africa, tiny countries from the former USSR, etc. Most of them are decent and won't rip you off, but there are too many scammers - there are more in these countries than any others - in fact, today, I received a faulty item I brought from Hong Kong on eBay. Hopefully I'll get one that works, but if not, I won't be buying from Hong Kong again.
