Every few days I keep getting emails (unsolicited) from a company called 'WebnameSolution.com. I generally ignor them but earlier this week there was actually a domain in the title that caught my eye. So I went to the site and did a search to see what other domains they had that I might be interested in (being one to always look for the opportunity to make a few bucks on a quick turn around). Straight away I noticed that they had listed the following 2 domain names:
0.com (that is numeral zero.com)
000.com (that is treble numeral zero.com)
Well this must be a mistake. :?: so trying to be helpful I telephoned their support people to let them know, 'Oh sorry, that must have been a mistake' was the young chaps answer.
Well today I just thought I would check again, and yes the above two domains have now been removed but I wondered what else was available from 'WebnameSolution.com'. Well I did a cursory check of the numeral domains and in the end thought I would start off by buying these few domains as in my email to their support staff. If I did buy these at the price suggested I could retire forever!:approve:
Here is my prelim enquiry email:
Now let me see, how much do you reckon I could resell these domains for?
Obviously something is terribly wrong here, and I therefore wish all newbies in particular to be aware of the fact that just because you get an email offering you a great name does not mean either the sender owns or is entitled to broker the domain.
Mind you, the dream of owning the above domains gave me a few minutes of 'If only I had registered all of them..............' (I am sure we all do that occassionally.)
