Has anyone else encountered shenanigans such as this?
I won an auction for an expired domain.
Paid for the domain.
A few days go by... then I get a refund!?!
I find that the whois for the domain shows TODAY May 15 registered with DYNADOT!??
The rep on the phone says that somehow the domain got redeemed in the 41 day window and transferred to dynadot THIS MORNING.
I'm being deflected to auctions @ godaddy to discuss this further.
Seems that the writing is on the walls here.
Godaddy is totally fine running corrupt auctions.
If I won a car in an auction, paid for it, then low and behold the old owner comes along and says they want it back - would the auctioneer give it back to them? NO!
