I won a domain on NameWinner for $180 with a high Overture with extension (344) and I have not received my login info. However, it is pointing to HitFarm's PPC page and I don't have an account at HitFarm. So someone is making money off my domain.

.

The WHOIS shows ENOM as the registrar. Dotster billed me for a domain they didn't catch.

The weird thing is that I had this domain in Enom's Club Drop, but it never showed in my auction list. Funky stuff.

Ken,

Apparently, Jerry caught it manually!!!

Eventhough, that is had to believe.

Otherwise, if the drop club caught it. It would
have gone into auction. ????

Yea....really weird shit huh?

I sent Jerry an email asking him to confirm he does have it with Enom so that I may seek a refund with Dotster.
 
This is the 2nd time this has happened to me.

About a month ago, Enom "caught" a domain and I paid for it. It was resolving for about a week and then magically jumped to BuyDomains account (read between the lines).

To defend Enom, they refunded my funds ($460) very fast and dropped the registrar as a drop partner.
 
i won a domain at namewinner on the 15th Aug, till not i still have not receive my login.
 
Update - Namewinner refunded my $180 today very quickly once they realized what happened. I am satisfied with their response.
 
I think you need to wait for a reply from a company before you publicly post "scam". That is a big accusation.

Agreed. Big difference between a mistake and a scam.
