One look at the domain name "bido-auctions.info" should pretty much tell you it's a scam.

110% Scam

yup - my thoughts exactly - thought I'd post as a heads up anyway as not seen this one before.

In general, if you are unsure, just send them a link to the domain's marketplace listing. They can't scam you that way, but you also won't lose what could have been a sale.

Always the same old appraisal scam. At one time they were even using a name similar to Namepros.
