Why would some one go to the effort of listing a domain for sale that isn't?

Occasionally, I survey the market by determining if other extensions of my names are listed for sale and for how much. On two occasions I found domains I own for sale. But, I have never ever listed a single domain of mine for sale. Thus, I was very upset by the finds.

The first occasion was about two-weeks after the .BIZs were awarded. I found one of mine listed on Great Domains. Great Domains were pretty nice on the phone. They even gave me the listerâ€™s info and delisted it.

One hour ago, I just found another of my domains, Violet.info, listed on Sedo. I just E-mailed them informing them of the situation, I do not know how long it was there.

I would have thought that before listing, boards would wait to receive an e-mail from someone listed in whois? What do I know?

Has anyone else been victimized by this situation. Does anyone else check the boards?
