I am selling a Domain name via Escrow.com and GoDaddy.com - Any Risks?


Are there any risks that I need to look out for so that I do not get scammed?



Thanks to everyone that answers.

    I have done this a few times with escrow.com and I don't see any big risks. They won't get the $ until the transfer is confirmed.

    Escrow.com is a great way for both buyer and seller to conduct a domain name transaction. Escrow.com will receive the buyers payment before notifying you to safely transfer the domain. They then monitor who.is information to make sure the domain transfers to the correct persons account. They also allow you to forward transfer confirmation emails from the registrar to them in case the buyer becomes unresponsive or does not confirm their acceptance. Most importantly, there is no way for a buyer to run away with both the domain and the money and their is no way for the seller to receive the money unless the domain is properly transferred.

    If you're talking about risk, there always be risk, but if you use escrow, it's lower than PayPal. I read somewhere (webmaster forum, I forget which one), someone was scammed via escrow. So using escrow isn't bulletproof.
