Yesterday, I was checking domain list in my namesilo account. Found that my 4L.com's were missing. Immediately I've sent mail to namesilo and got a reply like the domains got transferred to another account.

And when I checked IP login info in the domain transaction history, for these 3 alone the access is from the UK. I shared this info with the namesilo customer support and waiting for their reply. I'm sure the domains were stolen from my account, but not sure how did it happen.

First time facing this problem. I hope a lot of people gone through this situation. But what is the success rate in getting back the stolen domains?

@tonyk2000, actually I didn't enable it, but I enabled right after finding this.

It’s under domain history on the right side bar

Nope, I haven't received any.
So it may well be that your email account was also accessed by the person who stole the domains :(
They might delete it from the inbox before you checked email.

It should be able to be traced

Since it was accessed from TOR, the real location of a hacker cannot be traced based on IP. What can be found out is what happened with the domain pushed, they are likely not with namesilo already. Might be sold or resold 1 or more times... including to other domain investors. In any case, a separate warning post on this forum with the list of domains (stolen - do not buy) will not harm I think.

When I checked the Whois lookup they are still with name silo
Then NS should help you get them back. Hopefully the domains are locked in the hackers account.

They are still at NameSilo - did you check if they are listed in the Marketplace there? Also, are the DNS for the names set so that they redirect to a for sale somewhere else? There is no chance your NameSilo email address has been changed, either by accident or by hacking, so email notifications not going to you?
