Hi guys,
I suppose this is the right place to post this info. It's about GoDaddy suspicious behaviour.
Here is the story in brief. I wanted to register a domain name at Go Daddy several days ago. I checked it at another registrar before that and I knew (or at least I assumed) it was available. But when I tried to register the name at GoDaddy it was shown as already taken but available for purchase for $500 at their auctions. Since I assumed the domain was not registered (because of my preliminary check) I made several more checks at other registrars and all of them showed that the name is available. And it really was because I registered it later. So be careful with GoDaddy cause they try to easily get our money even with such unfair methods.
And here is the full story: GoDaddy scam attempt
