So a few days ago i noticed a GoDaddy Auction bug/loophole that allows you to see the Max bid your opponent made so you can skip all the auto bidding and just outbid them. Now this loophole is only beneficial to hardcore bidders and it comes in handy during one of those auctions your fighting with someone for a domain but you keep seeing auto bids.
Though this might be beneficial to us domainers against other domainers but its poison to GoDaddy auction system. Their proxy auction system is based off competition and the MAX bid is the backbone to their system. I told them vaguely about the bug while asking if it was something new to help bidders or should i even be able to see it at all. They clearly stated that no one should be able to see Max bids so now they said they cannot duplicate the issue and i should tell them exactly how i came across it.
If i dont tell them, can they do anything to my account in spite legally?
If you guys were in my shoes, would you give up the secret in full?
