This person is trying to sell a domain name that is not listed for sale or owns it. The owner of the domain will not sell the domain and is now aware of this scam. If you received any emails from this scumbag, please report it.

They send out emails about pluralized "s" versions of domains; some are junk e.g. imagine owning woman.com their email is about womans.com

I always get these - 99% of the time I can go to a registrar and register it for 1% of their asking price.

This time though it is clearly an attempt at fraud - notify the police. I did the same when one of these companies was trying to sell a domain that I owned for well over a year.

Doc, apparently "ohie" is a substring of a domain you own?

Spammed three times for the same domain:
Dear Domain Owner,

As if we would be interested anyway.
