Sedo Scam? Or is this legit?

[compuXP]

Hi,

Somewhat urgent, as I want to wrap up this sale ASAP... I've never done a sedo-based transaction before, I want to know if this is legit... is Sedo's DomainSite account code 85184-0bd839d?

(I've censored some emails and domain info)

Hello Matt,

Thank you for your email. The reason you are not showing any negotiation
activity for this domain is that the price was agreed upon, so no more
negotiating is necessary. The domain is now in the process of being
transferred. I have sent you an email to push the domain to Sedo's Domain
Site account. Please comply as soon as possible.

Thank you for working with us and please feel free to contact me with any
additional questions or concerns that you might have.

Best,

Erich Mueller

Hi,

I have a question... how come on my Sedo account page where I "View
Offers", it says there is no negotiation activity?

Thank you Erich,

In order to continue with this transaction, please push the domain into our

Please log into your account with DomainSite and select the option "Bulk

Any offers for me have ALWAYS shown in the activity files. Don't let your haste cost you your name. Contact Sedo directly, not through any of these links provided and not by "reply"ing. Find out why this offer does not show up in your offers list.

 

[compuXP]

He says it's because a price was agreed upon... so there is no negotiation needed... which I find unusual.

 

[Brujah]

You should see it under View Transactions now instead. That's normal, and how it's worked with the past few names I've sold too.

 

[compuXP]

Ah thank you It's legit. I found it under View Transactions... rep +.

compuXP

and also remember, it is always better to contact Sedo directly, so you can resolve the issue as soon as possible.

 

[compuXP]

Right, thank you

Dang, there's no rep system at DNF is there?

 

[Rushh]

Nah... but you can throw some DNF$ his way... hehe

always use the View Transactions to monitor.
when in doubt, email sedo directly and verify with them.

i have many successful transactions with sedo, everytime when they proceed to next step, they will update their activity in View Transactions.
