And for the record, i just disagreed with how you went about it, you shouted ‘scam’ on a public message board without (and i quote) “being 100% sure” there was better ways to go about it.

Even this thread you’ve created now, looking at the thread in question is still 'under investigation' so once again you are jumping the gun, playing judge and jury before the investigation has been concluded.

He lied to me
I caught him in the lie
He stopped communication
His account is closed
Those are facts

He is a scammer. And I reported him yesterday to Admins.

Well you went about it the right way (reporting it).

My whole point is, even if was a scam, which very well could be, that means there’s a poor rightful owner out there not only had someone trying to sell their domain, but now has multiple threads on NamePros linking their domain name to words like 'scam' and now also has a separate thread (which will be indexed on Google) saying “looks like *domain in question* was a scam” - All whilst still under investigation.

That domain as now been devalued and possibly even been made unsalable at no fault to the rightful owner and with that just felt it could have been dealt with better.

Last I'm typing on this now.

HeHe.... no hard feelings to the owner of snowflake.com

Email him and tell him you have a new use for the domain

Seriously though.... if it was a scam he deserved to be shouted out.
If not then apologies would be in order.

 

[uglydork]

Scam or not he lied to me in a pm
He told me he bought it off namejet a few days ago and moved it to godaddy
I called my contacts at namejet and godaddy and both said it was false
Namejet never had the name and godaddy hasn’t moved it

Would an easy solution not have been to change something on whois to show ownership.

I often ask for that if it is a big transaction and I can use a push.

Thanks for sharing. Your guilty until proven innocent in this business

 

[pablohc86]

thanks a lot for sharing! ugly scammers!
It's funny that he sent just that poor screenshot as a proof of ownership

@Eric Lyon

Could you please clarify if a member is allowed to taint a domain name without proof that the scammer had anything to do with the owner?

The subject of the thread clearly states that the domain name itself is a scam.

I am the most well liked person on NamePros! Lol
You people kill me

Easy fix

Looks like the Pictures(dot)net Auction by Mackskinner was a scam, the domain was not his.
