New Scam Very Clever To Look Out For - Domain Related
I got an email from someone intrested in buying a domain from me the domain is irrelavant, so i emailed them back with a price i was looking for and then they hit me with this.
Have you had your domain names evaluated in the past? I mean domain appraisals. Without valuation we cannot be sure in the sale price. It's very important for me in terms of reselling too. But we must engage a valuation company with REAL manual service. So I will only accept valuations from independent sources I and my partners trust. To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies. Please check this blog with suggestions from other sellers and buyers: http://www.domainexplorer.org/Archive-09-2009/81637824.htm |
First sign: They say check this blog for suggestions now that webpage is not a blog and it actually says at the bottom of the page this

and went to the root of the domain

So why is this a scam?
Well there getting you intrested becuase you think they want to buy your domain so there telling you to go and get a valuation done which you of course will have to fork out of your own pocket for.
And these guys own these so called reputable domain name aprasial companies so there not even intrested in getting your domain they just want 75$ for ever person they sucker this way into getting an apprasial done
So anyway be cautious and always look for signs :p
Hope this helps
