Sorry to hear that
Could you (or a mod) put the domains in the title ?
What happened ? Details please.
Domains were stolen from ENOM account and transferred to godaddy. Already reported to godaddy, but godaddy can't lock the domains untill the have the official docs from Enom. Enom is looing investing the case, might take few days.

I guess if there is an upside to this...if they have been transferred to GoDaddy .....they won't be going anywhere for 60 days.
Hope it works out. That is some serious jingle.
Good luck

Wait on docs from enom? Why not get a lawyer considering the value and have it locked in a day.

Do you have their contacts?
How did they get stolen from Enom? Was his account hacked and his email address changed to the scammer's own address so the EPP's would be received?
Looks like Enom's security is not that great.
Owner of these domains must be on his way to retirement. Have no idea what he paid for them but I can guess the offers he should be getting

With these great Domains in jeopardy definitely get a great DN Attorney to make sure "your Stolen Domains" -- at Godaddy have a -- Legal Freeze and are Locked up -- to Stay at Godaddy -- so they can not be " Transferred or Pushed " anywhere else until you legally get them back... Very best to you...

Hi, Millering
Any progress? I met the similar condition.
http://www.dnforum.com/threads/domains-were-stolen-in-enom-what-should-i-do.529798/#post-2215499
But the enom is disappointed. It looks like they cannot protect the owners.

Seeing to much of this lately, what happend to Bari?
Should be ZERO tolerance for this kind of stuff, 2 step authentication is an option, but still from the stories I have heard ENOM is not doing enough, almost sad to see, and ENOM even though people do not respond, they still listen, and think twice when using such services. The value of the above names, in terms of dollar amounts, are enough to put someone away for a long time.

I don't see any WHOIS updates, could you please confirm the domains you listed are now back with their legitimate owner?
