Domain Seller Scam! Mawali

Posted on June 29th, 2008 in Scammers by admin

This DP member Mawali scammed quite a lot of people at this thread.

The scammer’s modus operandi is new to everyone which is buy a reseller account and offer low price to everyone. In this case the buyer bought the reseller account from an Australian company (I won’t tell the name in this post) and offered a $4 domain registration.Then after like perhaps 50 domains x 4 = $200 the scammer will delete the domain and request refund.

In this case however I will say that the scammer has done a lot of mistakes which in turn caused him to get banned from his main reseller. However this still caused many DP members to loose a lot of money as they will need to re-register the domains.

IMHO this scamming needs a lot of time and little money gained by scammer but it is still  a scam. Thus earns a post here on digitalpointing.com. Hope this piece of news will also help for further awareness in the future.

v7n sold for $200K!!

Posted on June 28th, 2008 in Outside DP by admin

I must have been sleeping for awhile to miss such an important topic! Discussion thread about v7n sold here on DP. Anyway for you who don’t know v7n is a mini version of Dp where I usually hang out in my free time. It was never a success as DP was {DP Alexa – 1K @ v7n – 30K) but it was a much older forum and nevertheless such sales have a big impact for us webmasters.

The buyer mr Lee_D was lucky I wasn’t around at sitepoint during the auction was held or else..

Hopefully now maybe v7n can become a better forum and I wish the new owner goodluck! Oh yeah, and I didn’t made any mistake. Sure the website was sold for $220K but the extra 20k was for Paypal fees. LOL

Scammer alert – JediKnight

Posted on June 28th, 2008 in Scammers by admin

jediknight is a scammer (peon) with 2 good ratings and only 8 posts. He scammed SLM-why of his PR5 domain sold at this thread

[QUOTE=SLM-why]
Yes he is
He will pay via paypal, get the domain and then file a paypal dispute.
Tell him you want to use moneybookers and that asshole will disappear by itself.
[/QUOTE]
Easy modus operandi, get 2 or few good itrader and then scammed at the third. He is targeting people selling PR5 domain at Godaddy like this thread.
Most likely to PM people and offer to buy at BIN.

Most likely will go away if you ask for payment paypal verified via mass paypal. An old fashioned scammer but still works till now. I wonder why?
