I actually do not blame the people that stole those domains. The problem lies with the registrars. It's 2009 and they did not figure out how to protect internet property. I would sue them. It's the easiest thing ever to actually secure domains.

I think the regitrars have a "nursing" role, there is no way, to stop stuipid users (yes they are) from doing stuipid things. If there is a hole in their system, YES the registrars should be held responsible, not in this case IMO.

This has been mentioned so frequently on here.

Getting a secure, reliable, and safe email account is prudent. Plus it looks more professional if you have something that not anybody and everybody uses.

If I open up a registration company, I will certify that no domain will be stolen not matter what email you use or how stupid you are. There is a way, but I'll keep that for myself for now.

sure there are ways, and there are registrars that have good reputiation "not one stolen domain in x years"

the problem here is that the OWNER (the broker) pushed the domain to the scammers account...

how to stop that? Its just a stuipid action, because he not checked escrow account, but assumed it the email was real.

I can send you tonight an email from [email protected] saying you will be deported to guatamo bay. Many people just not realize how internet works

untill the time everyone understand is (it will be never) there is NO way to stop such, or simular "hacking" "social engineering" ;)

There is a way to stop it. Again, it's very easy. Did you ever see a stole house?

yes sure, in some countries its possible to steal a house.

...anyway compared to this case it would be better to state:
the last owner not readed the papers so good, the house sold for 0$ to the new owner (he got a post letter from "the notary"(the backside had a stamp on it "notary john doe")) he just opend the envelope signed it, and the buyer picked the papers up "to bring it to the notery"

You're assuming the owner has to do something (read the contract, or push the domain). Under my umbrella the owner is protected from him stupidity and if the umbrella fails, the domain is insured.

So to put this in terms of real estate: the seller misread the contract ($0), sold the house for nothing, but regain the money from the insurer who covered him on his mistake. All for a small fee.

Guy is from Chicago IL.

His real name could be: luke zycki

You guys should check the IPs he sent those emails from and try to match IP addresses on DNForum in order to get his screen name here.

And this could be the address:
221 POPPY LN, BENSENVILLE, IL 60106

PM me, how did you find this info?

Heres something interesting, this scammer uses the email [email protected] for a legitimate email address, or at least he's emailed us from that email address in the pass using David Sanchez in the past. I know this is the scammer 100% using the email address, but not sure if he actually "owns" it. Anyway, I ran a reverse search (paid) on the email and it returned this:


John Sanchez

Take the IPs he sent the email from and do 2 things:

1. Find the locations of those IP addresses within US
2. Tell admins to run scans on NP and DNForum to find the those IPs in here.

He is clearly in IL, read above, its him. Secondly we now have several family members names that live at the same address, in the process of searching them out to get a valid number, this guy has never had a phone number other than a cell in his name.

This is the house, at LEAST 5-6 people live there all but one with the same last name.

No worries Robert and Rocky we'll have this guy soon.

I believe he is Polish(?) any way I found a pic of a bunch of polish guys with his address mentioned, real " gangstas " in the pic, throwing up signs lol it has a matching addy BUT I wont link it because the site freezes my PC so may be dangerous/worm/trojans etc.

Okay, I'm starting to tie things together here:

GD account that stole 4n.net, 29116963, admin email is [email protected], BUT the password reset email on account is [email protected] which I found after trying several times.

[email protected] did business with EscrowDNS.com back in November and used the name David Sanchez, the reverse look up shows "John Sanchez" as the email owner. We also received several emails saying "hi" which I passed off as spam right before 4n.net was stolen. They sent the emails to several different @escrowdns.com email addresses, probably trying to find one that would bounce, they setup a godaddy account using [email protected] BUT we have a catch all feature which will deliver all emails to us no matter what, as long as its @escrowdns.com. So we received his emails saying "Hi" and also emails from Godaddy saying the domain name was pushed, I immediatly attempted to login to that account by resetting the password at Godaddy to "steal" the domain name back, but they were too quick.

Anyway, [email protected] or David Sanchez actually completed a transaction through us and was paid by Paypal to [email protected]. Now I doubt a scammer would accept money into a stolen account so that must be the scammers actual Paypal address.

4n.net was actually stolen once before and EscrowDNS helped return the domain name to its owner by intercepting the scammer. Before we found out he was a scammer he gave us his Paypal address which was [email protected] and went by the name "Ben". When you Google [email protected] there are several posts from 06-07 where the guy signs it with "Amir". The same scammer was trying to spread rumors around DP that we stole his domain name, he used the screen name "Sun431" over there and he purchased "signature space" from a member over there which now reads "Darmid.com" which has been used in the stolen domain names' whois.

If anyone can use this info to further track the scammer it would be greatly appreciated.

Given that there was a payment made through paypal, this should be relatively easy to follow the trail for law enforcement. The FBI has been cracking down publicly lately: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lan...ity-theft-ring-agents-with-the-federal-1.html

It should be simple for them to get the credit card or bank account info from paypal, then contact the financial institutions & follow the money from there. Has anyone called the feds yet on this?
