Gameman has his domain back. Someone cracked my account, stole a few domains names and sold one of them to Gameman (through Digitalpoint). I reported the theft to Godaddy, which investigated and determined that the scam artist did indeed steal the domain. Accordingly, GD pushed the name back into my account.
Prior to getting back my name, I contacted Gameman repeatedly because I sensed that he was an innocent buyer. Initially he refused to discuss the issue and any possible amicable solution. After GD pushed the name into my account, however, I contacted Gameman again and proposed that if he bought two other domains from me, I'd push the subject domain back into his account. He agreed. In sum, I received Zero $ for the subject domain but I was able to sell two other names to Gameman. Sadly, the scam artist got to keep Gameman's money. . . . but at least Gameman has the domain.

This is the same guy that is now stealing the Godaddy domains, he also has a new account at NP: i.domain (though he has yet to be banned)

this is getting out of hand... thanks for the bump, very info packed thread here...
I have received two emails over the past 48 hours for domains I have offers on at sedo that seem to be coming from this person...
I am at the point where I will not do any large transactions unless they are via sedo or moniker escrow. Although I have to say I am quite impressed with the way you have been helping with all this Justin, going more than out of your way with this situation and I will definitely not think twice before using EscrowDNS knowing that you are on top of everything and everyone.
thanks for showing some reassurance!
