Be careful. I could be an appraisal scam.

 

[Shadowh86]

how can I know for sure it is a scam? Is there any any to find out?

 

[Ted.T]

He will ask for an appraisal certificate, given by a specific site. Man, just search appraisal scam on the forum. He is a broker, his client has 100500 millions but he needs a certificate to prove that your domain costs millions, bla bla bla... It's a scam.

I also received a same email.

"$10000 – Ok.

Before we go further we need only one thing from you:

To be sure in legitimacy of this sale and to avoid possible trademark problems my client buys domains certified by an official certification authority.

The certificate must include three essential things:

1. Independent manual valuation of the market price. My client does not trust automated valuations. The expert evaluation will help to determine the true value of your domain's worth so you can maximize profits during the sale.

2. Trademark infringement verification. It proves your domain has no trademark problems.

3. Verification of restrictions. It proves you are a legitimate owner and your domain has no any obligations and restrictions.

If your domain has been certified please email me the certificate and we will proceed with the sale. If you don’t have the certificate it’s not a problem. I may send you a link where you can obtain it. Please don’t worry. It won’t take much time and money. It takes 1-2 minutes to order it. The results will be sent to you within 24 hours. Then you send me the certificate via email and we’ll proceed with the sale.

As a broker I’m very interested in a good valuation part of this certificate because my client pays me a commission (10-15% of the sale price) on every domain purchase. So I’m not interested in a low price too. You can read about the certificate agency at: (“Domain Broker” is my nickname).

The process is very easy:

1. Go to the certification authority site and order a certificate for your domain. Just submit your domain and let them know you have a buyer with $X,XXX offer and need an evaluation near this value. After several hours you will get the results. If the price in your certificate comes higher we will increase our offer accordingly.

2. Then send these results via email and we’ll proceed with the deal.

If you are new to the certification process I can help you with step by step instructions."
