Hi,
I just won an auction at namejet.com.
But the domain name is redirecting to a company realated to the keyword.

I think it might be a stolen domain.

Its 3 letter .tv that redirect to keyword(the tree letters).com

You should check the whois record. A lot of domain owners redirect their domains to Google, MSFT, whatever, for whatever reasons.

What is the registrar?
Was it sold by it's owner?
What is the expiration date?

I guess Namejet has already charged your credit card.
Have you received any other email? e.g. from the registrar?

I trust NameJet. Its scares me to see that the domain is actually forwarding to a potential end user. I'm waiting for their reply.

Got the answer.


"Hello Xavier,

NameJet auctions domain names which have expired and passed through all grace periods. Domain ***.tv was a pre-release domain from one of our partner registrars.

Our Pre-Release program grants access to dead registrations after the registration and grace periods have lapsed, but before they're outright deleted. It's up to the domain registrar to reset the DNS settings for lapsed registrations or not. Because pre-release domains, by definition, did not get deleted, you may find that some of the DNS settings have gone unchanged and still reflect what they were while the former registration was still active.
"

I guess I would have to wait till they contact me to have the domain back (sale).
