Hi guys,

I am in need of $150 to get a stolen name back, its a long story, but basically the thief wants this money to get back the money he lost in a Paypal transaction, but the problem is, I dont have this money and now I dont have my domain either.

Its a long story, but the bottom line is I am in need of $150 via Paypal pretty quickly or I probably wont get the name back. Paypal wont help, Namecheap hasn't responded to my emails.


masts.net - $100 (perfect for sailing and or boating website)

baloogan.com - $50 (good made up name, had a 41 OVT score w/ extension last month, not sure about traffic)

PorscheGT1.com - $50 (great car domain name)

BMWM6.net - $25 (upcomming supercar)


thanks everyone for your support!

Hi GT,

Sorry to hear that. If that's true, and you send the thief another $150... I seriously doubt you will get the domain back. They are just giving you a low-ball price to make it more likely the get more out of you. :(

puravida - thanks for the concern, but I do believe this will get me the name back. At this point, I can either try to get it back with the help of Namecheap, which doesn't look very possible, or just pay the money and see what happens. The name is worth $800-$1000 to me, so $150 doesn't seem like that much to get it back.

There's a motto for your situation. Once bitten, twice shy.. It doesn't make any sense that the person who stole the domain is suffering any losses. If someone used his/her account to pay for the domain then why is it in his/her name? It would seem that the thief would use the stolen paypal account and then put the domain in another name.
