BTM.net STOLEN DOMAIN! - DNForum - Domain Sales, Domain Forum, Domain Appraisals, Domain Registrars

Mr.Domains · 10-01-2009, 11:12 AM

What can I do?

I just logged in to my GoDaddy account to find that my most valueable domain, BTM.net is missing!

I tried the URL, only to find that it is being brokered for sale by BuyDomains.com of Rarenames Inc
738 Main Street, #389
Waltham, Massachusetts 02451
United States
+1.7818397993

This is my domain! What can I do about this? Is there any way to tell when and how it was stolen from my account?

Thanks,

Neil

**invincible** · 10-01-2009, 11:31 AM

email and call them urgently

**stewie** · 10-01-2009, 11:36 AM

yeah call GoDaddy, ask them what happen?

pcproffenno · 10-01-2009, 12:10 PM

Someone has most likely stolen your domain and sold it to BuyDomains. I assume you called BuyDomains right away when you noticed this?

**tomsa** · 10-01-2009, 12:12 PM

According to the whois history a dnforum member egyfun was the previous owner before Buydomains.

Yup, this is where BuyDomains bought it from DNF member egyfun.

So, BuyDomains acquired this domain in July and you found out today?

According to whois records you haven't been listed as the owner of this domain since 04/29/09. That's almost a half year ago.

The domain changed ownership to Mahmoud, Amr (DNF user: egyfun) on 2009-04-29.

**Johnn** · 10-01-2009, 12:34 PM

I don't think you should jump into the quick conclusion that they stole your name.
Do some research to trace back the previous owners.

BuyDomains didn't steal his domain, the thread title should be changed.

Ted from BuyDomains bought this domain on DNF back in July here, from DNF user egyfun which has been listed as the owner of the domain since April 2009. If anyone stole his domain it's this egyfun dude.

**stewie** · 10-01-2009, 12:51 PM

he needs to start with GoDaddy,,to see how this domain left his account.

**exxe** · 10-01-2009, 03:33 PM

egyfun bought a domain from me few months ago, and paid by wire transfer.

Don't jump on him yet.

**victornumber** · 10-01-2009, 03:36 PM

lets wait for the reply by egyfun

**Cartoonz** · 10-01-2009, 04:39 PM

interesting that egyfun left the DNS the same as the previous Registrant the entire time he owned it too...

I'm just saying...

**PRED** · 10-01-2009, 05:14 PM

just checked on namepros and saw was bought here i think
http://www.namepros.com/domains-for-...-auctions.html

question is who is novaangel? also that owner owned from late 2008 if you search domain on np

egyfun/amr is a member on another forum ,with a good rep there i have to add, so i have pmed him to let know about this thread

mr. domains, how long did you own the domain? also i note novaangel has his account closed at np, but had quite a lot of posts so should be easy to marry up domains he/she had for sale

sounds like a job for jp, you out of retirement yet?

actually checked both profiles on np and neither member left a trader rating , and thread was closed
so searched on dnf and found this:
http://www.dnforum.com/f529/btm-net-thread-342288.html

once again user: 'novaangel'

so we need amr and novaangel to clear up how they bought/sold
also mr.domains needs to say when he bought etc.

i agree with prof, title should be changed as clearly buydomains dont steal domains

. only when they offer you $20 for a quality .com

**Cartoonz** · 10-01-2009, 05:49 PM

PRED, you're onto something....
novaangel sold (or attempted to sell) a lot of domains over at NamePros... problem is, the owners of those domains are all different people at the time!

The common factors are:
GoDaddy & gmail/yahoo/other abandonable email providers

So... it is quite possible the OP in this thread is the true owner. Problem is, we all know that GoDaddy will not do a damned thing.

**egyfun** · 10-01-2009, 06:15 PM

i bought this domain name from namepros.com
http://www.namepros.com/domains-for-...-auctions.html

thanks pred for telling me about this .

pcproffenno , before you accuse some one make sure he is the theif .

And the fun of watching domain laundering continues.
