Scammed by Network Solutions?

[James Rodman]

EDIT POST: not sure who the scammer is. looks like NS might be

So what is the timeline as far as when Chetan filed the dispute?

I ask because I find it mildly curious that Chetan was still "flaunting" his ownership of lio.net as of mid-day yesterday:

Premium LLLL.net countdown 2015

it was filed this morning

Unless this guy has a pattern of doing this with 10s of thousands of dollars, it'll never happen. $440 is isn't felony neighborhood. And law enforcement don't give a care about internet crime.

I think you missed the post @Raindrops just posted with specific details.
This was a well orchestrated scam and not Newb move. Look at the timeline and method used to pull this off. This was NOT their first time.

Did you notice the bidding pattern on that domain that someone kinda posted earlier for us?

which one? myxl? i never participated in that auction i just saw it on namebio.com

he told me he didnt have paypal. probably paid using CC for flippa fees.

So with no paypal, I assume Flippa escrow was involved?

That makes the timeline of the guy showing up on Flippa on the 1st of September, listing a premium auction, selling it privately prior to any bids, Flippa letting him know you paid, him transferring the domain, and you offering it for sale here by 4:59AM EST.

actually once i paid using credit card it takes a couple days for the seller to get the money since it goes to his bank but i got the domain before money arrived to his bank and he kept messaging me asking when money will arrive

Right, thats what I was saying. It truly was a very fast scenario when you look at the whole picture:

Jackbrown22 Creates an account at Flippa on september 1st
Same day he is vetted by Flippa
Same day he pays big bucks for a premium auction
Same day you offer him $440 for a 2k domain in PM, he closes his auction which had to have no bids
Same day Flippa Escrow tells him you paid and to release the domain
Same day he releases it and you acquire it
Same day you list it for sale here at NP

All of this is done in one day, September 1st

Takes flipping to a ......whole new level?

Looks like Sept 1st is a bad day for flipping.

By 4:59AM EST none the less.

I would say it was a pretty good day for flipping given the uh, timelines.

me and Chetan talked in private he will either get his refund from me or hopefully will get his domain back if the previous owner wasnt at fault and NS was the one who stole it so thanks everyone for your help so far
