Buying a domain from a zero feedback member????

[DirectoryNetwork.com]

I'm buying a LLLL.COM ($XXXX) from a zero feedback member, where should i check the ownership to make sure is not a stolen domain?

I know WHOIS but is there an other place to check ownership or stolen domain name?

Thanks for your help.

Do you have a membership to domaintools.com? They have a whois history you can check out....and if it was a recent pickup you can contact the previous owner to verify the sale.

Use the WhoIs archive / history (if you subscribe) to see the list of previous owners and contact the one before the current owner.

Edit:

Onward beat me by less than a minute. So I'll change my suggestion to "yeah, what he said".

If someone is a member of domaintools.com and want to help me, please PM for the domain name.

Thanks guy.

It's not just the number of feedback that matters. You may want to check his join date and number of posts at DNForum AND other established places.
