Around 120 Domains Stolen/Hijacked from GoDaddy & Moniker

My domains were stolen from my GoDaddy.com and Moniker.com account last week. So far about 118 domains in total.

The perpetrator used a similar approach to what was discussed in this Blog.
http://blog.domaintools.com/2007/09/...tolen-domains/

My contact email was changed to very similar looking emails.
I have records from GoDaddy of the contact email changes that they initiated. The domains were then transferred out to a different registrar.

I contacted Moniker, and I was able to recover all 66 of my domains from Moniker within 1 day.

As for my GoDaddy names, my GoDaddy account executive gave me the list of the 52 names that were transferred out around August 26. But he told me that since the domains were transferred to dotregistrar.com, they no longer have control to those names.

I contacted DotRegistrar.com & Dotster.com and gave them the list of names that were fraudulently transferred to them. For some reason, the whois info for these names are not showing up.

The whois for the domains that were transferred to dotRegistrar.com is showing "NOT FOUND".

contact legal@godaddy.com

Contact the legal department at dotRegistrar.com

Do what it takes, what ever it takes. Calls etc.

Hi,
yes, I do have an account manager at GoDaddy. He doesn't call me for any of the account changes, but I can call him and talk to him. But regarding this situation, he says that GoDaddy doesn't have control over those names because they were already transferred to DotRegister. I gave dotregister the information already and they said they are investigating the issue.

If they are investigating the issue then it means the domain names are locked. Hold tight, dont lose your cool. If they take more then a few days, contact them again.
