    Warning to "WTB" posters

    I was recently contacted by a Sean Brady cesuraean@aim.com offering some domains after seeing one of my Want to buy ads.

    I checked the whois and it matched his name, I asked him to post my name on his site as proof he was the same Sean Brady, he did.

    I made an offer, it was accepted, he asked for western union or the like for payment, i ended up paying by paypal.

    After paying he sent two more emails requesting the money. I replyed to both advising it had been sent. No comms since, its been 3 days, filed claim with paypal but who knows!

    In short, watch out for this seller, use escrow services and run for the hills if any seller asks for non disputable payment options like western union....should have seen that coming!

    Where was the domain registrared?

    Contact the losing registrar, usually legal{at}registrar.com.

    Submit proof of purchase and agreement.

    PayPal typically will not investigate nor refund for non-tangible items, which includes domains.
