Drop-catch sellers are getting desperate..

[draggar]

You know, those guys who offer to sell you (domian.net) because you own (domain.org) for about $500 a year?

This one just came into my email:

Preferred Domain Availability Notice:

domain.com will be listed for sale in a few days. This domain might be useful for you, since you own the domain domain.com

To express interest in owning this domain, just fill out the simple form here

Yes, they're offing to sell me a domain because they see that I own that domain? Talk about automated gone bad!

(BTW - the domain in question is one I recently dropped).

i get a ton from these guys called 'riverside doman brokers'... so annoying.

This was actually from a new one - Alex from Centromix (a.k.a. InTrust Domain Names).

I also got a few from Alex. I must admit, very polite emails.

Also, typically the plural of a name I own.

Somebody needs to shoot those people. Very politely of course.

.. at least it's not the name they think you own.

"Hey, you own this name and we may be selling it soon, would you like to buy it?"

Wow, I'm getting 2-3 a day now,mostly from "Alex" but some others.

So, you all admit you think I own a name but still want to sell it to me??

Maybe you will pay more if you cancel negotiations and let you come back with a higher offer.
