Emails from domainers selling crap names

[biggie]

i thought it would be real nice to share some of the emails i receive from fellow domainers trying to sell their crappy names.

hopefully, some of you will read these and stop sending or see the mistakes they make so you won't make them too.

here is one from Andrew Brad, and if he is a member here...he's a clown! why? because he included every other email address he sent this mail to. thus one could harvest his list and spam them too.

To whom it may concern,



The premium generic aged domain FREDLOYAINSURANCE.NET is up for sale and I am emailing several parties that have registered similar domains OR use "[fredloya], [fredloya insurance], [loya insurance], [fred loya claims], [fredloya locations] etc." as keywords in their advertising campaigns.This is a 6-year old domain, with no drops since it was registered in 2006.



According to the Google Traffic Estimator the keywords ‘Fredloya Insurance’ receive over 40,500 searches every month, thus making this a high SEO premium domain worth thousands of dollars.



Right now, the asking price for FredLoyaInsurance.net is just $250, and is available on a first-come-first-served basis. Yes, you read it right, $250 ONLY.



This is a great opportunity to acquire a great domain at a throw-away price. If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me an email or call me directly at +91. 939-2774-412.



All transactions will held either via Paypal or via the secure services of Escrow.com.



Best regards,

Good Afternoon-

I am a representative that is interested in connecting with someone that may be interested in purchasing facebookbroadcastnetwork.com and
socialmediabroadcastnetwork.com.

My client is interested in a package deal for both and is accepting sealed bids. Is this something you can handle and if so what are the parameters of our engagement with you.

It wasn't a domain offer, but awhile back I got an email from a "web design firm" offering their services to develop my newly acquired domain (they even listed the name in the email). I sent it to spam and didn't think about it again.

A couple days later I'm leaving one of my classes and notice I have a missed call from a strange number. I call back and am greeted by name and once again offered services from this said firm.

I guess they got my information through whois..

I have received a similar email to yours, and more recently one for back links. The emails I receive seem to all come from the same person or people. They use email distribution lists they create under silly names like sudhoff properties, etc; and coded at the bottom it reads 'this is not spam.' See below.

85% of all website traffic originates from the search engines, with the majority coming from a select few. If your website doesn't have top 10 rankings on the major search engines for your targeted phrases then you're losing money to your competition every single day.

You need backlinks for your website. you can buy my services from Yooker.com. please follow the link below. You can choose from several SEO packages depending upon your requirements.

If you like you can pay via PayPal too. just let me know if you want me to send you my PayPal email.

All the best

Got this today:

From: "Peter Olek" <[email protected]>
Subject: .CO domain name enquiry, please reply

See the carefully crafted subject, made to look like they are interested in buying one of your domain but not quite

Hello,

I have noticed that you have some .CO`s. I have some good .CO names too.
Some of them were sold with other extensions for a very good money in he past or words which belong to 5000 most common English words. I decided to sell some
of my domains as I spend much time on other projects and I do not think I will have enough time in the very near future to develop them all.
If you are not interested in the domains I do apologize for bothering you.
Please do not read farther as you only find my domain name portfolio.
Regards
Peter



The words below belong to 5000 most common English words (out of millions).
Number next to a domain indicates how popular word is among 5000 words.
Also, when the same name with other extension was sold in the past you
can
find info.
You do not have to believe those history sales. Just type a name in
Google with sale price and you should find without any problem history sale of that domain.

Yes, some spammers are at least trying to be creative

Your domains are obviously for sale yet they want to sell their domains to you and they are looking to you for a lifeline :bah:

The spammers are touchy, they talk about respect but isn't it a two-way street ?

Subject: Your comment on namepros about me!

Hi,
I have seen you pasted my email on namepros and you called me spammer.
I email people only once and according law I can do it http://www.getensight.com/news/a-marketers-guide-to-sending-unsolicited-email.html.
I read many times your comments (especially about .CO) on namepros and I know much more about you than you think.
I ask you kindly to remove this post.
You do not have to do this but you will not be in a good relation with me.
I recommend anyone to have respect for other people, particularly if someone is into domain business.
Please think twice before giving me `too clever reply` as I hate this and you simply start something that is not worth starting....
I really do not think you are my enemy, bad guy etc.

Have a good day.
Peter

send him this...

http://business.ftc.gov/multimedia/videos/complying-can-spam-act

as I don't see his address listed, I save all the ones I get and quite a few come from the same people after a little detective work, could bankrupt a few if I pursued it, easier just to click bomb the domains or write sucks, scam, stolen after the url so if anyone looks them up nice search engine results show up.

 

[Archangel]

No, the spammer is wrong. What he did was ILLEGAL. He got your address from a whois & send you unsolicited email about BS you don't care about. That is abuse to whois. If the spammer himself is reading this: LEARN HOW TO SELL A F***ING DOMAIN! ppl like you give us REAL professionals a bad image.

 

[bmugford]

What a pathetic waste of time.

Hllo
Friends, if you because of your site without a good domain name was not a significant grade website regret or anxious?we found that the domain( adultmovie.co.in )is will help your business.If you have any question,you can email to [email protected] .At last,Sorry for the disturb if any

I think he composed his letter in his native language. Then copy-and-pasted it in an online Babelfish translator.

That's what i do when i send messages in Russian. lol

 

[Kate]

Update ***

After the veiled threats, it gets nasty:

I knew it you would do that that`s why I copied all your comments from namepros
Lets see if I can find something there about perfect you...
This is my last email to you .You simply need proof I mean business.

That "Peter" seems to think he can make threats without leaving digital footprints behind him.

Full details including his IP address 188.222.14.167 will be made available to law enforcement if the need arises.

 

[alien51]

Well, he DID say he will not email you again.... if you click UNSUBSCRIBE.

I will not email you again but you can click the following link Unsubscribe by email.

But since you did not click unsubscribe, that means he will email you again.

 

[werty]

Don't report anything as you will only hurt the industry. Stop crying about an email and find something else to do!

 

[Archangel]

Wow... he showed you he was a desperate asshole with his sales email & now he thinks he's the victim. That dude is a putz.

I was looking for similar info and came across this thread.
First of all, I cannot understand how guy who is so long member makes a mountain out of molehill. I totally agree with Werty.

From time to time I am also sending emails that way and do not see anything wrong about that. As long as I do not do that repeatedly and email the same people.
How we can find end users if we do not ask them?
Can anyone give me an advice, please?

And how many sales have you made that way, zero?

Only contact endusers that you have pre-qualified as being a business or individual that would actually benefit from owning your ONE specific domain.

I got that same spam email of .co names and it is a waste of my time, just because I own a couple .co domains doesn't mean that I'm interested in other random .co domains. I was also contacted with the exact same email as was sent to Brad (from 'wang'), he qualified me based on our domains having the same keyword. It's a great keyword, but, it is a Spanish keyword and he owns the .in!

People need to be realistic and realize that if you can't find qualified endusers for your domains you need to re-evaluate how you buy your domains and not focus on how to off load crap. Eat the losses and focus on quality.

Yes, people pitching domains need to understand there is a difference between contacting "end users" and just blasting an email out to whoever.

Emails should not be going to domainers, they should be going to users who are actually running a business on the term you are pitching.

The "I noticed you own a similar domain" pitch only works when the domain is developed.

How hard is it to weed out parked pages?

It is not that hard if you do it manually, it might be hard if your business model is just sending out a bunch of poorly worded spam to whoever.

Also, before pitching anything it makes sense to learn what a quality domain is.
99% of these domains you get pitches for are pure garbage.

1) Should only email businesses that actually have a use for the domain not domainers.

2) Should know what a good domain is as 99% of the ones I receive they would have a hard time selling to an end user for $10 as the quality is so bad.

3) Should include your real name, address and phone and use a real email instead of mike67565666565@freeemail as no end user will respond to anonymous bullshit especially when money is exchanging hands, the more real info you use the higher probability of someone saying this is legit and contacting you assuming the domain name doesn't suck, offering an Escrow company along with PayPal helps as well in building trust.

Good names sell for themselves, if you need to spam then your business model sucks.

Recently I had a minor brush with another person, it was just the same type of issue. He contacted me and we were able to resolve the matter amicably. The difference is that the guy was professional at all times and actually earned my respect. I know he's legit and in spite of that incident he's somebody I trust enough to do business with in the future. People show their true colors when confronted with the truth.
