Hey Guys.

Unfortunately a member of the domain name community who I figured was trustworthy scammed me.

On Febuary 26 I agreed to buy SCIENCE.INFO from a [email protected] (David Ju) AKA Skywalker on DS, DNF, Afternic.

I saw the name on afternic and decided to email him.

We agreed on a price.

He said we would have an "instant transaction".

After numerous attempts to contact this seller, he has not responded to anything.

It's not like the guy hasn't been online or anything, because he read my message at DS.

I paid for my name, and I want it.

PayPal was only able to recover apprx $100 from this guy's paypal account.

I would like to see a response from Skywalker here.

That is the point of this message.

Hopefully this post will result in the transferring of the domain to me as was once agreed.

Any research/input would be greatly appreciated.

The domain name whois was changed on March 10th from the seller's contact to this other guys.

To an address that doesn't exist. (Conviently enough the fake address added is close to where I live and it's just a big office building).

Thanks in advance,
- Jordan

Although skywalker has not posted here since late February, he was online here today so let us hope that he will respond and ensure that you get your money or the name - we don't need people like that here.
Hope it gets resolved for you Jordan

Thanks for warning us in case he may try to pull it again. Hopefully it was a misunderstanding in some way and you will get the domain.

Jordan,

Sounds like you've been screwed! Good luck, really, in having it resolved to your satisfaction.

Not sure what you paid for it, but for a name that big I think you would involve some kind of legal action Jordan!

Good Luck!

I intend to go after this guy bigtime if I do not receieve the name soon.

It would be best to just pass along the name as he was supposed to now as what it will cost for him will not be worth it to keep the name.

I have reason to believe a connection with member Skywalker to member Saler.

Please confirm these connections mods.

Thanks,

Good luck trying to get a resolve in this matter!

Hi Jordan,

why don't you contact the registrars with all your info (paypal receipts, etc.) to get the name? Best of luck from my side!

Best Regards
Nico

It was't "stolen" so I don't think the registrar(s) would help.

Best of luck.

Thanks for the heads up. I am currently negotiating to buy a domain from this clown. Methinks I'll keep my money in my pocket.

Good luck in getting your domain.

Let me know if he speaks to you.

The registers would not do anything.

They'd get in troule if they did.
