Official List of Domain names, Scammers, paypal id's etc

Im creating this thread in light of all the paypal scams going on these days in our Industry. Lets use this thread to post names that have been paid for and not received, names sold and sent but were later charged back, fraudulent users / their emails etc, that way we can do a quick search before we deal with folks.

You're going to be busy maintaining the evidence. For every incident you post, you're going to have to back it up. Good idea in theory but I am afraid it's doomed.

DM, although I agree absolutely with your motives and reasoning for setting up such a thread I think Azooza's comments are well founded, indeed a little understated if anything!

Also the thread may well be closed for legal reasons, such a thread could leave DNF open to challenge in the courts, especially if one reported case was incorrect in any way whatever! (And that could just be a simple typo.)

I know mods and admin will look at this thread, and should they close it please do not think that they are acting against you or your idea, I am sure they hold exactly the same sentiments as you, I, and all other members. But they have to protect DNF for the benefit of us all as well.

Besides, I wasnt thinking much in legal terms when I created this thread, I was just concerned that all.

Every instance like this takes a separate thread. Individual problems are generally raised as separate threads and the mods and community do the 'blackballing' as a generality.

I was scammed out of a domain name late last night ( early 2/14on another forum.)

The scammer paid me $600.00 via PP with an account that wasn't his. After I transferred the domain at the registrar to the perpetrator I was notified the next day by PP of the problem.

PP and the registrar won't help. I asked the Registrar to lock the domain they refused to do so and said I have to take legal action and then when they are instructed to lock the domain they will. ("when they receive notice of a pending legal dispute" ... in their words)

Meanwhile the perpetrator has my domain and can resell it or transfer it further complicating everything.

As long as registrars refuse to lock a domain that has been reported to them as being acquired frauduently, and until the reported dispute is reviewed and resolved, these con men will get away with what they are doing knowing that they have plenty of time to move the merchandise.
